Doesn't it seem like we are always pushing ourselves towards an undefined goal.......

.....that never comes in to focus?

Yes we succeed in many of the small goals in which we define ourselves and our lives. Many people are very happy too.

That’s why the goal in life should be peace in one’s heart. If you set out to achieve happiness, it will never be achieved. You’ll always want another material possession, relationship, job, etc.

But if we set out to achieve peace in our heart, the happiness is a byproduct and one will find himself very happy.

Every day’s a gift,
We aren’t guaranteed the morning,
So savor all these moments,
The end comes without warning,
Relish every victory,
And learn from each defeat,
Spit out the bitter poison,
And drink in life so sweet,
Find the laughter, seek the light,
For even in the dark,’
There’s a chance to find your fire,
All you need is just a spark,

The storms in life are endless,
But if you refuse to fail,
You’ll make it through the tempest,
And find new wind in your sails,
So don’t resign to sinking,
Even when all Hope seems lost,
Keep steady at the helm,
As upon the waves you’re tossed,

If you sail on through the darkness,
Once again the sun will rise,
You’ll find somewhere safe haven,
Perhaps scarred, but more the wise,
And with new eyes you’ll wonder,
At the beauty of the dawn,
So make each day worth living,
And keep living ‘til you’re gone.

Nah. However, I am always moving the goal closer and closer to where I already am.

But what of ambition? That drive to achieve more, create more, build more?

Inner Peace is lovely and all that, but there’s a quality to restlessness too. To having that drive to claim a bigger piece of the pie, to claw your way to the top of the pile.

Most people are caught up with trying to out do their friends and family with possessions aka keeping up with the Jones.

I have learned that material possessions don't define me . The love of my wife and kids is all I need to be happy.

...to the non-Bible readers.

But to each his own. I just like 'abundant life.'
