Happiness

What is your purpose in life? It's one of, if not, the biggest questions in life.

Last Thursday, Rainn Wilson (aka Dwight K. Schrute from The Office) came to UNT for a lecture. And I was blown away with what he had to say. He wasn't there to talk about his time on The Office or what it was like being an actor. He was there to talk about SoulPancake, his company and website that challenges you to "Chew on life's big questions". He talked about what compelled him to create SoulPancake. The catalyst behind this was his spirituality. It was one of the best lectures I've ever heard.

This lecture got me thinking about my earlier question, what is my purpose in life? This question doesn't have a black and white answer. It's different for everyone. And maybe I won't ever get an answer to this question. But I can tell you what I feel it is.

I feel my purpose boils down to just being happy and spreading that happiness with everyone I meet and everyone I know. For the past week, I've really tried to do this. Expressing whatever happiness I can in any way I can. And for the past week, I've felt really good.

So my message to y'all is to just be happy! If something's got you down, do something you love to do or help someone else out. It'll make you feel better knowing you helped someone. Spread your happiness and create a chain reaction! BE HAPPY!

Keep on Dreaming Y'all!
