My generation has high expectations for destiny.
Deep within the hearts of my generation is a group of individuals seeking individual goals, dreams, passions and the like while also trying to survive in the ensconcing community in which we find ourselves.
The striving to attain that which meets us at our very core is incapacitating to some degree – for that which we desire is often elusive, too specific to be realistic or simply (deceptively) out of reach.
At some foundational level, doing nothing is an acceptable plan B should a scenario for plan A be unacceptable, unavailable or yield conflicting results.
In other words, my generation is not content to settle for anything that would compromise honesty to ourselves.
My generation reaches the questions of: who am I?
who do I want to be?
what kind of person am I becoming? at quite young ages.
This question of self-actualization can be overwhelming to the point of incapacitating if not answered or addressed.
Because while the answer may not be completely obvious we know one thing: we are somebody and that somebody exists for a reason.
Our general consensus, given this thought, is that this reason, this purpose, this destiny, better be good.
We are desperately in search of a channel for our passion.
Those fortunate enough to find an outlet for their passion (dare I say “calling” in a spiritual sense) are envied.
Those consistently failing to realize their passion die a little each day inside.
The truth is: my generation wants to be a part of something world changing.
They want something to believe in, we want something worth devoting our lives to.
In March of 2005 I was sitting at my desk in front of my computer and had the thought: “is this it?
Is this all there is to life?” and was terrified that the answer might just be ‘yes.’
My response was to follow up this question with: “so who do I want to be?
what do I want my life to be about?”
Without hesitation, I began to explore my passions – those things that make me come alive.
Within five minutes I had found the WorldRace Website and sent an inquiry.
A passion is a truly valuable thing.
The realization of a passion is the taste of destiny.
Carpe Diem friends – you are the only one able to make your life all it can be.
God is moving and He’s got that place, that person, that realization of your passions waiting in the wings.
It’s time to see how far the rabbit hole really goes.
It’ll be everything you ever wanted and more.
