What's really important in life?

What's really important in life?

Candice Johnson · Saturday, March 18th 2006 at 7:51PM · 304 views

Sometimes we ask ourselves "why are we born?", and sometimes we feel like we can't take life anymore. There will always be people who have "the I don't care" attitude and treat you like dirt. This is where we have to learn to love ourselves because no one else will except Jesus and God.

Each and everyday is a trial for us. We are constantly being tested through our emotions, intellect, spirituality, and physical well being. Sometimes we want to tell off that person who thinks they know everything and look at you snobbishly. It doesn't matter what age group you encounter. Everything begins at home.

The things that I found were important in life are:

1. My spiritual well being

2. Loving myself because I would not be concerned with whomever throws insults my way and I know who I am.

3. My relationship with my family and friends

4. How I treat strangers

5. My responsibilities (chores, etc)

6. Seeking my true purpose in life

7. Enjoying life itself (the air we breath, the warm weather outside on a bright sunny day, and observing the creatures God created.)

8. Being prepared for the different chapters in my life I encounter ( the soulmate God created just for me and all I have to do is be patient, going to grad school, giving back to the community and then the world, the fruit of my womb God will bless me with, being a blessing to my family, and etc.)

9. Wanting to live to at least 100 years old and watch my children grow and be a blessing to the world

10. When I learn more about my self, then this list will get longer. LOL


Feel free to share what is important in your life and your experiences. You never know how you can be a blessing for someone who is seeking an answer.

God Bless you all.

What an awesome blog for all to claim and receive for no matter what socio-economic scale, many have been here especially those great Women, Men, Youth of the Bible and of History.
The greatest always held on, all against was the devil anyway.
Peace, continue to do what You do.
Look forward to your continued growth.

P.S. One of the Deeper blogs I have seen since being here, in the top %.
Proverbs 3:27-28.
Also do not be weary in well doing even though this is easier said than done but God giveth might and power and its not us anyway Zec 4:6-10.
Anyway, remember more than people see, like all those hosts in Heaven. I have to remember that one myself sometimes. Just being real/honest.
