In Loving Memory

"For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person's life at a given moment." Viktor E. Frankl 

In Loving Memory, I attended my nephew's Bar Mitzvah, and at the temple there was a memorial wall of family members from the congregation that had passed away; some where parents, other were grandparents, and still others were siblings.

The messages on the board, inspired me to reflect on my personal journey; of becoming the man I am today. One persistent question which motivated my transformation was, "how would I be remembered on a wall very similar to this one; 100 years from now?"

Every day for the past 3 years, I have been making a concerted effort to find my purpose so that the work that I do is both meaningful and makes life better not just for my immediate circle of friends, and family, but also for the community at large. Everyday I am grateful, everyday I am inspired, everyday I have fun; I am choosing my happiness and state of being.

Perhaps, you feel disconnected from your purpose, or inner passion, one great way to find your passion is to serve others. Want to leave a footprint on this world? Then, help others live remarkable lives.

And do it because 100 years from now your life story (In Loving Memory message) on a memorial wall may inspire someone to have the courage and fortitude to seek a better life for themselves and it may even change the world.

What are you willing today to be remembered 100 years from now?
