The Pursuit

Recently, I caught the show Pursuit of Happiness. The theme revolved around commitment, hope and perserverance. Never giving up the fight, and never letting the critics get into your system.

All the values are critical to life. Without them, there's nothing much of life left. Without commitment to something we truly believe for, or in, there isn't anything much to wake up to in the morning. Life becomes aimless.

Without hope, there is nothing to look forward to.

Without perserverance, we would never get to our finishing point.

Life doesn't seem fair to us at times. All the more when we look at things using our own set of scales - which inevitably ends up imbalanced. How do we embrace life such that it gives us a sense of purpose and joy? There is only one answer. Life with our Maker.

I have a lot of dreams that I wish to pursue. Are those dreams really what I am made out for? No one knows better than the one who thought of what I was created for. He began with the end in mind.

Daily, there are always the challenges in life. The things that I refuse to face, yet have to face. How I face them though, depends on how I see myself in the situation. How can I get a clearer picture? When I see it through an elevated platform. A platform that only He provides.

Once again, I am back at the source of life. There's no pursuit more worthwhile, than the pursuit of the greatest love of all. The pursuit of meaning in life, from the creator of meaning Himself.
