My Purpose

I believe that we all have a purpose in life and so recently I decided to write mine down and now I feel the need to share it with others, so... My purpose in life is to bring others joy. Both in this life and in the next. I can do that by continuing to develop my gift for charity and always being willing to serve those around me. I also need to be an example. If I have joy then I can share that joy and to some degree it is contagious. I can bring joy to others by living and sharing the gospel. I also feel a solemn responsibility to do temple work for my ancestors so I can bring them happiness. One of my sacred responsibilities is to have children and give those precious spirits the opportunity for joy. I need to teach them how to have joy, but ultimately realize that they have their agency. It was an interesting experience for me to write my purpose in life and to think about it. I know that I have a role and I have understood that for a while, but to actually try to figure out what it is was a very enjoyable experience. I definitely spent some time on my knees and spent time listening. I just find it so amazing and now I feel like I have some definitive direction for my life right now!
