| Thinker : Reverence : Dolphins Answer: Purpose of Life | |||||
|
Sitting on my surf board, watching the waves roll under me and crash behind me, I began to wonder, what purpose do I have in the world? what do I have to give? A little while later, not much later, I was a pod of dophins cruise by the very waves I had just been meditating on. As an answer to my prayer, what does the dolphin tell me? As far as I know, they just live. They play in the waves, they eat smaller fish. their existence is their gift. They Be. They simply be. So my gift, too, is to simply be who and what I am. My presence is my gift. (Seems like a pretty weak answer to me.) |
