Wonder is a debut album of spoken word by Iyanu Adebiyi. This is what I am binge-listening to for the week and I highly recommend that you check out. “If there is no light at the end of the tunnel, I will turn my bones into firewood.” - Iyanu Adebiyi (Light Li - Imolede) My favorite of this album is titled, Your Name (Oriki).  Over the years, I have learned several things about finding one's purpose. However, this year, these are the things I have found more relevant or affirming to situations I have found myself. Purpose is a right, but the knowledge of your purpose is a privilege you have to earn.
I want to believe that no one is made without a purpose on earth. Even those who just came to fill the spaces of time, maybe that was their purpose. Perhaps their purpose was to be a lesson for others to grow. However, people often think that because everyone has a purpose, they are automatically entitled to knowing it. You will be surprised how much hard work it takes to know and understand what you are created for or called to do. Don’t sit in an entitlement that will not let you realize what your purpose is. Until you know anything or everything about your purpose, keep doing something! You won’t just read one book about purpose or do a masterclass series and have a ha-ha! Some may be lucky to discover it quickly, but it can take years. You are not a failure because the knowledge of your purpose didn’t come to you easily. You are not a failure because you have tried several things that didn’t work out. Keep trying as if you are almost there. |
