Serve a purpose
+++++++++++++++++++

Does it serve any purpose to complain about things you cannot
change? So why would you want to waste your time doing it?

Does it serve any purpose to fill your thoughts with regret
and resentment over what happened long ago? So why would you
waste even a single moment on such a negative, unpleasant
pursuit?

You're far better off doing something that does serve a
purpose. You're far better off using your time and energy to
learn, to create, to love, to understand and experience
life.

Your thoughts and actions are immensely powerful. Rather
than using them to hold yourself down, put them to work on a
valuable and positive purpose.

Use your energy to serve a positive purpose, and as a result
you will have even more energy. Fill your time in the
service of a positive purpose, and your life will be filled
with truly meaningful treasures.

Choose the thoughts and actions that serve a purpose. And
life will serve you its real rewards.
