If I can’t live my life the way I want, then what is the point?

If I can’t be who I authentically am, then what’s the point?

If I can’t feel love, compassion and understanding for others, then what’s the point?

If I can’t be loving, gentle and forgiving of myself, then what’s the point?

If I can’t experience beauty, value and meaning from life, then what’s the point?

If I can’t fulfill my desire to help others, then what’s the point?

If I can’t get up each day feeling band new, passionate and full of life then what’s the point?

If I can’t love, be loved and spend my time with people (and animals) I love, then what’s the point?

If I can’t pursue and live my purpose and make a difference, then what’s the point?

The point is these values are what matter to me and what I aspire to do with my life

and I am going to live them

because otherwise there is no point.
