Real Strength's Source


"Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you."
- Thomas Jefferson
 
It would appear that today's world revolves around the concept of "pain free" living.  If it's going to stress me out, then I'll avoid it; if it will require hard work and dedication, then I won't be involved; if it means that I must sacrifice something of myself, then I certainly don't want any part of it.  The never-ending search for our own "individuality" has only left us empty handed at the end of the day.  Why?  You ask....because there is no growth, no progress made and certainly no purpose behind this type of existence.  Only by doing do we actually discover the strength that is inherent in each of us individually; only by being proactive instead of reactive do we discover the true meaning of our lives, and in turn this is what brings real peace and happiness to one's soul.
