Do you know your life purpose?

Just wondering, does anyone out there feel like they know what they're supposed to be doing it, and are actually doing it?Do you feel that you are using your natural talents and abilities in a way that is exciting and stimulating for you, and which is also supporting the upliftment of humanity?Do you actually believe in the concept of having a life purpose? What are your thoughts about it?I thought I was doing what I was guided to do, however I'm not feeling supported by the universe in doing it! I am certainly not able to support myself financially doing it.How about you?

  • Yo, CoMdr * LightSpeed *...
    Peace be with you, too.
    What is ATS???
    • ATS is a website called Above Top Secret and it is an interesting site. Check it out, I like it pretty much and I think you would find it interesting.
  • I have absolutely NO idea what I am supposed to be doing.
    Actually that is, perhaps, not entirely true. I know I am supposed to be in the field of either education or healing. The older I get, the more and more I lean towards healing. I really love the thought of being involved in Birth. Either as a Doula or a Midwife and this is what I'm concentrating on at the moment. I was in and out of hospital over the past 5 days and it re-affirmed my inclination that Healing is where I belong.

    • Good one, CoMdr * LightSpeed * !!!

      Re. 9/11, I urge you to read (if you haven't already) chapter 22: 'Conspiracy Theories' in 'Strange & Mysterious Anomalies: Myths, Conspiracies, Discrepancies and Out of Place Objects' by Ian Ross Vayro (c)2008. The chapter on conspiracy theories includes very interesting stuff about President John F. Kennedy [who really murdered him?!], Diana - Princess of Wales [was murdered by..., don't we all know that!], Pope John Paul I [was murdered], World Trade Centre - 9/11 [shocking revelations!!!], Horrifying U.S. Death Ray [used on soldiers and civilians in Iraq & Afghanistan], The Wrong Saddam [was executed, the real Saddam rescued by USAF!], etc. etc. etc.

      But of course, for the sake of balance, chapter 21: 'Odd Facts, Trivia & Phobias' includes, e.g. on Phobias: "Afodronaphobia - the fear of being sucked down a toilet". On 'I.T. Trivia (...that you didn't really need to know)': "One in every eight married couples in the US [in 2007], met online". Sooooo...

      I'm sure you'll have a fantastic new year!
    • Well that sounds encouraging : ) I have been learning about birth lately in order to help prepare mothers-to-be for it using hypnotherapy/self-hypnosis. There is a pretty impressive programme called 'hypnobabies' that you might be interested in. The stats on their website are pretty impressive re reduced intervention and better outcomes for baby and mum, and even partner, if I recall correctly. All the best with your journey : )
  • Dear Merryn I also think this is a great question. I am 49 now and have been working in the adult world since I was 13 and have been on my soul's conscious journey since I began meditating at 15 with Baba Muktananda. Since then I have worked in dozens of different work streams from teaching, thru social work, hospitality, horticulture, commercial fishing and now farming. I have changed 'teachers' many times also, but never felt that any path I looked at or experienced over these many years ever guided or exemplified what this is all about for me. And I believe that is what it was always about; US stepping out into who we are in every new moment the best way we knew and came to know how at the time.

    That our life purpose becomes more of who we are in every moment, that we are bringing, giving and creating this new energy into and thru ourselves together. Humans, inner earth dwellers, intergalactics, planets, stars and all universes known and all that is. I have always used my talents and abilities to the best of my abilities in every endeavour, when things lost their excitement or stimulation for me I moved on. For me all efforts support the upliftment of humanity even the negative, for we live in a compare and contrast world, it seems to enhance our learning the best.

    This does not mean that my life has been a dream, on the contrary to many my life has been one of hardship, poverty and inconsistancy, to others it speaks of adventure, facing the unknown and spontaneity. All I know is that when you can be inside the love that you are, you understand and experience love in everything and everyone around you.
    My life has had much sadness, misfortune and bitter frustration but it is always abounding in true friendships, trust, caring, laughter and peace and love always there has been love, my love for life regardless of what it serves up or what I call for through my own disastrous blockages before they are recognised and lived through.

    The universe does bring us everything we beleive in and live for, sometimes we just don't realise exactly what it is that we have 'put on the order form' there are so many negating thoughts and actions amongst our positive reveries that we don't actually perceive them when they are at our disservice. I believe the universe supports me whether I am thinking it or not about one or another and that's the catch, my follow through often times does support my belief system and voila there's a hole in my bucket.

    OK finances......I am not a materialist in the typical sense of owning a home or business or shares or what have you, but throughout my life I have always lived in beautiful homes, was always able to provide more than enough for my family, never felt deprived or that we were missing out on the things that really mattered. Our wealth has been in our vast number of true friends, incredible life experiences good and bad, our unbelievably good health and beautiful environments that we have lived in and travelled through and that is only in our own country. We/I am so much richer by these things than so many others.

    Dear Merryn I don't know what it is that you are being guided to do, but if it is what absolutely must speak thru you then I say keep doing it, I do not know why you do not feel supported by the universe because I do know that IT is doing it's damnedest to bring you exactly what you are asking it too and that will include all the trivial negating that you that you resonate about any little thing. I don't know why your financial situation is the way it is but I do know that you can do something about it, and you probably already know that it all begins with love and I always add a little laughter as that fills in the time.

    From my heart to yours sunshine and laughter from downunder.
    • I can relate to feeling like a sports car in the garage! ; )

      I have been good at thinking the positive thoughts and focusing on what I want, however in doing this I think I have maybe suppressed the aspects of myself that are in conflict with this, as Zeer talked about. Especially, FEAR. I think I will need to look at what I'm scared of, and heal this inner conflict before I can expect to manifest what I want.

      Thanks Erika, all the best with your journey : )
    • Gosh you guys, I so appreciate your comprehensive responses! Thank you Zeer, you have given me some useful advice. I guess it will be a matter of figuring out what my blockages and negating aspects are, as they seem to be getting in the way of manifesting what I want. These things aren't really apparent to me at the moment, so this will take some inner detective work. I do believe the universe brings you what you ask for, and that if it's bringing you something different, it comes back to inner conflict about what you actually want (or maybe there is a lesson you need to learn, or both). Thanks for sharing your life experiences and insight : )
  • You have posed a wonderful and thought provoking question. I had never really sat down and thought about my life purpose until you posted this question and am very glad you did. After great thought I came to a conclusion about my life and figured out what one thing I think I was meant to do, and something I did that made me feel like I was doing something I was "meant to do". I believe my purpose was to be a caring and nurturing mother for children who desparately needed mothering and loving. I was a foster parent to countless children over the years while raising my own two children. My kids used to nickname me Mari mother to millions, haha. They used to brag to their friends that I was mother to half the world, and that used to make me laugh. I guess in their eyes with new kids coming to live with us all the time that I was a busy busy mother indeed. Also my house was always full with all my kids and fosters friends and my house was always where everyone came to play. I usually had at least ten kids around all the time and it made me very very happy.

    I myself was an orphan and was bounced from home to home and it left its impact on me. Some of the placements were just horrible and they left a mark on my soul and my body from being abused and neglected, and I just never forgot those aweful years until a wonderful loving family adopted me and from then on I knew what being loved was all about. That is when I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

    I vowed when I grew up I would take in all the kids that needed loving and stability and try to make them happy and loved. It was the most rewarding thing in my life, and also the most heart wrenching at times, but it was something that I felt I was meant to do. I took in special needs children and others who had physical handicaps, and hard to place children and older children and mostly all of them felt unloved and were emotionally fragile and frustrated and always needy and most of them had been abused. It was always so easy to love them for me, I felt their pain, and they loved me back which was amazing. The heartbreaking part of foster parenting is when they would be sent back to the families they were taken from, only to be abused or neglected all over again. This happened more often than you could imagine and it just broke my heart and caused so many sleepless nights you could not imagine. Each time each child was taken from me and sent back home it broke my heart worrying about them and rightfully so, but that is how the system worked. If I had had the financial means and the childrens parents would have been willing I would have adopted them all, but it was not possible, I found that the most difficult part of it all. But now they are all grown and still keep in touch with me and often tell me that I made all the difference in their lives and that at least they knew someone had always loved them and truly cared. They still consider me their mother and that is something I am proud of, and feel so priviledged that was able to be a part of their lives. Most of my fosters have good lives now, families of their own, and this makes me so happy. I think that being a foster parent also helped my children to appreciate their own lives and take nothing for granted and now my grown children have followed in my footsteps and that makes me proud. My children and fosters were my whole reason for living. It was always a struggle financially but well worth it. When my children were all grown and I started to get older I no longer did foster parenting anymore due to disability and just plain getting too old. But now it seems like something is definitely missing in my life and I am so so lonely being all alone and on my own. So I am going to sign up for the Foster Grandparent Program and start doing what I feel I am meant to do. Love children and nurture children and make them feel valued, special, and loved.
    • Oh, Marique...I'm speechless and nearly in tears...
