There's a lecture by Alan Watts that always speaks to me. When I first heard it, my reaction to it was, "Yes."

This one if you're interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckiNNgfMKcQ

" "that's the best" "

what are we hanging on to
but our own "right to right
to right". our own right to
right to right was even right

I want to experience some radical form of consciousness. That is my highest life purpose.

My work purpose is I'm going to build a business and a series of buildings.

For me, I believe my life's purpose is to raise the existing vibration in this world. I realized that the moment I began to learn about energy and spirituality, the moment I touched someone energetically and helped them heal. How I will raise the vibration of the world really is the more specific issue. I believe in inspiring people I know, lifting their spirits, and spreading the positivity. Recently, I believe I have been called to become a physical therapist, and I am excited to help people feel better about themselves and their quality of life. This, in turn, would support my life's purpose as well. When my activities correlate to this purpose, I feel a wonderful sense of bliss and wisdom. When I deviate from this path, I feel an immense sense of anxiety and loss. It is difficult to learn what I truly need to do in this world (which I suppose is why I joined this forum), but I think talking about your purpose is the first step in manifesting it.

A while ago I realized that life is the purpose and I am life. I was aware of myself moving through many purposes at each age stage of my own life and where I was at and what I was doing. So in regards to the doing, I do many things in the world as my life. From a small child right through my whole entire life up to this point. Many things have changed but some things stay with you as a more integrative way of being and doing. I think right now I am living a more purposeful life overall, so anything I do I am doing more as the "best version of myself" and continue to expand and grow into that space. So the choices I create and make from that inner being state is just an extension of myself as I am. I have the attitude I can do anything my heart loves to do, some things I feel more connected to than others. So I don't limit myself as being and doing one thing as a purpose, more see myself as the purpose of my life as a whole way of being. So for me its more about the immersion and deeper fulfilment in doing whatever I do. When your doing what you love, you feel connected and the purpose arises from that centre of being you and knowing your doing what you love and its effortless.

I was thinking some more on this purpose thingy. Moving through some deeper reflections I was pondering the way in which some aspects of life you dedicate yourself too, tend to open up in ways where life supports you through the process more so than others choices. So has me pondering, if your choices are serving in ways where what you do supports more than yourself alone, the potential of others coming into that picture or purpose will align and serve you and your purpose. In my experience right now, what I am doing feels like a natural co creative supportive network of things aligning without me needing to push to hard or strive. I just turn up and set my intention along the way where things fit me and I get a strong feeling of "yes that feels right" and things flow on from that effortlessly in all ways. Things fall into place perfectly..So perhaps within our own timeline and life, we do connect to major points within the whole cycle of life where things "will be done" because life wants it, something greater than ourselves requires it. And we just do it.
