(#5850) We are all nobody until we become somebody

      What do I mean when I say that? Life, starting out is a mystery to all of us. We don't know what it is that we are to be in life but eventually we find clues through time. Some of us realize after some time that we don't really have some specialized skill or talent that is obvious so we go out and experience life to see what we can learn and relate toward. Even then many of us fail to achieve that lightbulb moment when our niche in life is revealed. If you are like me you just do your best as much as you can and be open to the unknown as it shows itself. I am not great at anything but I am good at a lot of things that give me gratefulness
     That has to be good enough for me because I know that as much as I want to be some special or exceptionally gifted person I am not. However, Life isn't about what we are it is about how we live in the time we have. Being busy with purpose is always wonderful as a guideline to living and making a positive difference in other people's lives is tremendous. We don't have to be a great artist or the wisest person ever born. We just have to be the better and best of what we do know we are. We care and we wonder. For me that is as much as I can contribute to our society. I am always still looking for some nuanced way to excel at a good thing but because of advancing age, the chances are slimmer with each passing day.
     The most important thing I can offer as a wise thing to do in life is to be well rounded in all aspects of what our reality teaches us. We must never stop learning and never say we know it all. What I know for sure is that the more I learn the less significant my ego is. Learning is awesome in that it teaches us that we are but very little in the big scheme of things. But learning also teaches us that to become bigger in the scheme of things we must never stop learning. Although my ego is less significant in the big scheme of things I am also part of the most amazing species ever known to exist. We humans have unlimited potential and that great fact is what should drive us all to become the somebody we all hope to be.
