How My Dog Unleashed My Life

Janet's Blog:What is Our Purpose in Living?
  

What is our purpose in life?  Why are we living?  Just to exist or is there something more?

 

These questions have haunted humans for a very long time.  There is just something that drives us to ponder the deeper meaning of life, most often without coming up with very satisfactory answers.

 

These questions have haunted me for a very long time as well, and, as I near my 60th year on this earth, I am beginning to find some answers—at least for my own life.  And I would like to share some thoughts with you so that we might begin a conversation around these big questions, and help each other find some additional insights.

 

I think that it is important to recognize that we are at a very special turning point in our evolutionary history as a species.  We have reached a time when wisdom is growing in the human species at an awesome rate.  It is still largely “under the radar screen” of mass media, but it is still happening.  More and more people are searching for answers to these major questions, and finding meaning for themselves through this process. 

 

I started this blog with the hope and intention of bringing this wisdom more to the surface so that other people can learn from our explorations and we can develop better methods of supporting each other on our respective journeys.
