Purpose

Look at the stars See how they shine Just remember They may have all died. It's not about Who glows the brightest It's not about Who dies first The purpose of life is a mystery of its self And the only thing That you can do is leave behind A part of you.

"He who has a why to live for can bear any how" We do all have a purpose, no matter how significant or not it may seem. Once we find our purpose, we can let go of the frustration that life is filled with suffering. Leave behind memories of yourself being kind to others, making others happy. Make a difference in someone's life. Really enjoyed this, good stuff.
