Purpose= ?

Hello Darling,

So, I remember for me the question "What is your purpose?" was always exciting yet scary all at the same time. But the more I started going through life the more exciting that question got for me. It became such a beautiful thing to me--God's plan for my life!

What I really began to find out throughout my life is that literally everything that has happened to me or that I went through--the good and the bad--has brought me closer to being the woman who I am today and finding  my purpose.
I really feel like God combined my passions, talents, wisdom, and what brings me joy all into one to create my purpose. 

Really though, it all has taught me the beauty in pursuing what makes you smile rather than chasing someone else's dream or want for your life. Chase what you're passionate about because at the end of the day if you're not passionate about something how do you expect to give it your all--your 100 percent?  

That's not just with our daily actions or careers, but it's also with the organizations/ clubs we join and the titles/ positions we want to receive.

Really, ladies, don't just commit to do something because you feel like it will make someone satisfied or you will receive someone's approval.

There isn't a doubt that sometimes us women have the problem of being "pleasers." As in sometimes we make everyone else's feelings and betterment our top priority. Don't get me wrong, loves, there is nothing wrong with caring about others and making them happy, but always remember that you cannot help others to your full ability if you still need to help yourself or if you do not enjoy the way you are helping them. 

That used to always be something that I struggled with. As I said in the Are you Happy and Healthy? post, you can't take care of others if you don't take care of yourself. How are you going to really help people smile in the long run if you are frowning and hurting on the inside?

So, when you are trying to find out what is your purpose never forget that 99 percent of the time it is your passion.

And Remember, Ladies, Stay C.L.A.S.S.Y ;)
