101 Best Ways |
| Something he said haunted me for a long time . . . |
|
|
|
| Written by Michael Angier | |
|
The "he" was Buckminster Fuller who said, “Your true purpose will forever remain obscure.” I’ve learned a lot of profound things from Bucky over the years. But this quote caused me considerable angst. Because, you see, my greatest fear was of reaching the end of my life without knowing why I was here. But several years after Bucky passed away, I came to understand what he meant. Just as the honey bee doesn’t realize that its true purpose is to pollinate flowers—they think it’s about the nectar—perhaps we have a higher “unknowable” purpose.
Since there are many mysteries in the Universe, it may be that we’ll
never fully understand our TRUE purpose—at least not in this lifetime.

Daily Quote
“A successful day: to learn something new; to laugh at least 10 times; to lift someone up; to make progress on a worthy goal; to practice peace and patience; to do something nice for yourself and another; to appreciate and be grateful for all your blessings.”
