This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it what I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
George Bernard Shaw
One of the ways you survive heartbreak is by finding your Life's Purpose. Dr. Jordan Peterson said that if you live a life, so meaningful, suffering will become irrelevant.
I usually tell people that in six months time if you cannot find your Life's Purpose, then go to volunteermatch.org
Put in your ZIP Code and pick one. You can start this week by helping others that are suffering or need your help.
