What matters most

What is it that matters most to us? For some it might be riches or fame or to be loved. We each decide what it is that we think will bring us happiness. What happens when riches are lost, when fame passes, or when the love of our life leaves us? These are but temporal conditions. What truly matters most? What endures beyond time? I believe it is knowing that we are each here for a purpose. That purpose is to make a positive difference in the life or lives of others. We do this by practicing acts of kindness, by caring about others, or by seeking a higher level of self. What we leave in our path is a better world. If enough individuals were committed to live a life that matters most, the world would be transformed. What matters most to you?
