it seems that being imperfect humans, prone to error, we will do everything w/ some selfishness. even to glorify God, we do it not just because we know God wants us to, or that we're grateful for His atonement..but because we selfishly want to be safe and secure.
So... ummm.. i dont know. i just wanted to say that.
perhaps for sharing and for laughing and for loving and for learning and for serving and for searching and for stumbling and for getting back up again and for realizing there is only ONE who truly knows and understands and the fact that He loves us enough to give us life and let us breathe is reason enough to try and love things right and live things in a way that starts the ripples of change.
very beautiful list. i think so too. and i certainly hope that the life i live creates ripples, ripples that extend beyond what i see and understand. thanks for responding, anonymous.
yes and no. i suppose it depends on what you're seeking your happiness in.

It could be. Life isn't all happiness. There is joy though. And true joy can be found anywhere.
