@Dragos – So true how you develop and change your purpose as you progress through life. Some call it success as well, but the same applies to success, it is not an event or a goal, it is a process.

So, where do we draw the line? This line or moral boundaries can be very different and changing — unless they are based on what’s prescribed by God.

Totally agree with you and with Jay’s article. The strongest point in this “life purpose search” analyze you made here is what you wrote in the last paragraph. Purpose does change with your life. You’re on a journey, you’re not staying. Everything moves and you’re moving too.

One of my deepest beliefs is that happiness is a process not a goal.

Great post Mike!

Yes, I think if people would live in a way that aligns whatever they think their purpose to be and actually do things that live that purpose, then they will discover true purpose much sooner. This lets it shift as you learn from these actions and the meaning of what you are doing to be revealed without all the time spent thinking without action. The end result, fast track plan to know your purpose…

As for Godly morality, I certainly know some will disagree on this point, but I can only ask where you think lasting morality comes from if not from God? Many systems that have seemed to develop moral or ethic rights without any knowledge of God have not lasted the test of time, Godly ones have. There is an inherent instinct in all human beings right from birth (even when no Godly influence seems to exists) to develop some aspect of moral right and wrong. This comes from how we are created and obviously without believing we are created by a universal moral power, then it’s impossible to believe our judgment could come from such a being either.

Your comment that “Morality is based on God” is your perspective and certainly not universally agreed upon. I don’t agree. Your writing is very good.
