Shutters up

Never lose your sense of wonder

There comes a point in life where we find ourselves standing in the middle of a dark room, questioning the purpose of life and ultimately, our existence. We ask ourselves; why am I here? Why and how are the people I am surrounded by, so different from me? Are we all here to do the same thing; create our versions of a routine life? Well, not exactly.

The fact is that each of us is a seed that has been planted on to this earth for a very specific reason and purpose. So yes, we do have a role to carry out on Earth; a contribution to make; albeit for a limited period of time. Our purpose is to bloom where we are planted - each of us has the ability to bloom in a way that is purely unique because our talents, strengths and passions dictate our experiences which define us. That is the purpose. And when we are living that purpose, when we are giving our special gift to world, we’re happy. Can you imagine how beautiful this world would be if we all contributed our unique gifts and gave back?

We grow through our experiences but we grow even more when we reflect upon them - which is why you will see a few reflection posts in this blog – perhaps we can learn from one another and grow for the greater good.

We often get caught up in this whirlpool we call life and let the forest burn in our lust for a tree. The simplicity of life has been overpowered by the complexity of man which ultimately leads us into an empty, ‘dark room’. But then what? Well, that's where this blog comes in with the aim of helping us open the shutters one at a time, let the light in and illuminate this dark room.

So, let's be the best version of ourselves and plant nothing but seeds of positivity, peace and happiness into this world.

Stay blessed :)
