Lifes Purpose

Life's purpose isn't to take.

Life's purpose is to give.

Life's purpose isn't how well others treat you.

Life's purpose is how well you treat others.

Everyone at some point finds themselves pondering this question.

There's no standard answer.

But life can be hard, and at some point you'll get knocked down.

You'll get hit so hard you forget which end is up.

You won't be able to find a way out of your problems.

It'll hurt, but that's life.

It's all about how many times you can take a hit and move forward.

You have to keep moving forward or you'll stay on the ground.

So next time you get hit down.

Stand up and endure as much of it as you can and push through.

There's always a brighter side to come.
