As human beings, we are more alike than we realize. No matter the political issue or persuasion, racial difference, or religious beliefs, the truth remains the same - most, if not all, people have more in common than not. The human condition is universal. Everyone reading this has experienced pain, joy, success, and failure. All parents want to see their children succeed and not harmed. It can also be said; many people live a 'rough draft' of what their lives could be. I believe this to be true, not only because of the unlimited examples one has at their disposal, but because so few people know who they are, what they believe, and their life purpose. More alarming and disappointing is the limited number of people seeking answers to those three introspective inquiries. The sad reality is that far too many souls spend an entire lifetime experiencing personal defeat after personal defeat because of their unwillingness to commit valuable time in the pursuit of honest self-reflection. By adequately or inadequately answering these three questions, we will create a considerable difference in the decisions we entertain and our lives' ultimate direction and destiny. The best version of us is waiting for us to answer these three lite -changing questions.
