My Mission in Life

Activity 1

God gives us mission. Everybody has its own mission. A mission that s/he should fulfills in his or her lifetime. A mission that we and the people around us should carry out and hand-in-hand to make this earth a better place to live. Some people already did their part. Some became a saint. Some became a hero. Some of them also died because of doing what we call "Mission in Life".

There is this quote in my mind saying "We are never given dreams without also being given the power to make that dreams possible". As for myself, I'm a dreamer. I am always a dreamer. I always dream to be a successful person. I always dream to have this big fantastic house, a luxurious car, a gainful business, a one-click type high-tech gadgets and so on. Honestly, I admit it to myself. I'm feeling so ambitious and so materialistic. Maybe those dreams and desires can wreck me out.

Then, I began to ask myself. Could those things make me happy? Could those things satisfy me as human? Could those things label me as successful? Could those things can fulfill my mission? Maybe yes, maybe no or maybe partly. But then, there is a part of me that keeps pushing me to help people, not in that heroic type or saint like. I could help by my own ways.

My mission is to help myself first, in order that I could help other people in the near future especially my family. I will do good in my studies. And be prepared for what God wants me to do. Maybe I feel this way, because I experienced being a needy fellow who needs help. I don't want to feel that damn feeling anymore. Being needy but only a few helps me. And that "few" is my family only.

You, do you know what is your mission in life? I just want to share this "The world is not an enemy but a friend as long as we do our best of whomever we are".
