Purpose

Purpose

I'm all about purpose in every area of my life. I don't believe things "just are". In my attempts to understand why things have gone the way they have the past three years (good and uncomfortable), I like to ponder the purpose for which both pleasant and uncomfortable things occur. Now that I have had TONS of solitude (I've probably stayed in and been alone more in the past three years than I had been in the 27 years cumulatively prior. I NEVER sat still, and I always had a group of people around me at all times. I just had that persona that drew people. I was/always have been droll, deadpan/dry and for those who really know me, everything opposite of what my stoic exterior greets those who don't know me.

Another thing I have pondered, as I have had to cut a good number of people out of my life (and continuing to do so as I type) I want to know why people are in my life. Every last one of them.

Whether we know each other from UNCG, Greensboro in general, Henderson, Staten Island, Brooklyn, Harlem, or whether we connected on Facebook -- what purpose do you believe you serve in my life? Or I in yours?

I'd like to hear from everyone on my friends list on Facebook regarding this.

Thanks & Regards,

Peace
