Answering Your Call and Purpose


Some names are difficult to pronounce and somethings are difficult to do. Nonetheless they must be done and every generation has a few people who choose to stand up, make a difference and change the course of history. Some of these people are not celebrated in their time and some of their contemporaries choose to spit on them. Yet, in a few years after their death, the tide changes and they are revered as heroes and visionaries. It is not the glory of today that matters, but the verdict of posterity. If generations yet unborn can applaud us, then we are truly great for our time and resources are borrowed from them.

Greatness is a choice. Those who follow the crowd will never be followed by the crowd. History will always forgive you if you are willing writer and not a mere observer in life. Go for your purpose and bite your bullet of destiny.

I realize if everyone of us answers his Call and Purpose the world would change for the best as we perform at our maximum capacity.

You are right Virginia. The greatness is each of us is starching for expression. The challenge is self betrayal. We seem to stop ourselves for various reasons when there is so much that we can be.
