Life Is A Shared Experience…
Christopher McCandless said it best “Happiness Is Only Real When Shared”…
Think about it, what do your goals, your dreams, your success, and your accomplishments mean if there is nobody to share your happiness with?
If you were all alone what would be the purpose of life?
Many of us get so wrapped up in our pursuit of success, and making a living… we often times forget to share our life with others around us….
Look at all the relationships in your life……
Ask yourself do I have……..
Someone who inspires me…..
Someone who pushes me……
Someone who motivates me…..
Think about our inner circle do you have…
Someone who challenges you, and let’s you know when you are wrong …..
Someone who pushes you to go one more mile, and do one more rep….
Someone who believes in you, and makes you a better person…….
Someone who will be there for you when you need them most…..
Someone who sees the best in you when you are at your worst……
If you have found someone like that, you have been given one of life’s greatest gifts. Appreciate it, treasure it, and cherish it everyday.
Because when it’s all said and done- it’s not what you have in life……
But who you have in your life that matters most…..
From the time we are children we learn that 1 plus 1 is two…
But when you get the right people together 1 plus 1 is much more than just 2….
The miracle of sharing your life, always adds value – it never subtracts…
We are not designed to go through life all alone,
We are made to be stronger, happier, and more successful when we find our other half, our matching puzzle piece….
Our lives are meant to be a shared adventure…
And it doesn’t matter what dreams you want to pursue at first… because the real dream after all is who you go with…
For most of us…. our lives often become about much more than just our own wants and needs….
We grow, mature, and we become someone else favorite person….
We become the partner for them… that they are to us…..
We are the last thing they think about at night…
And the first thing they think about in the morning…
At the end of the day there is no true concrete universal measure of happiness
For some of us the material things we buy can bring some form of what I would call superficial happiness.
The money we make, the awards we win, the accolades we earn, and admittedly those things can bring us happiness….
But I have found those things don’t bring absolute or complete happiness in your life…
To me knowing that somewhere there is someone who dreams of your smile, misses you when your gone, picks you up when your down, makes you laugh so hard your stomach hurts, believes in you before you even belief in yourself …that is true happiness… because it’s shared.
So look at your life and remember it’s not what we have or what we achieve that truly makes us happy…
But what we sacrifice, give, and do for those people we love that truly determines our happiness.
Life is a shared experience…so go out and share yours with someone today!
