Purpose

We all want to know our purpose in this life... and I think some of us know it from a very young age. Unfortunately, sometimes it feels like this life tells you it's not possible, but these quotes will remind you otherwise.

"Not all those who wander are lost." - J.R.R. Tolkien

"A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What one can be, one MUST be."- Abraham Moslow

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
- From "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost

"The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment." - Earl Nightingale
