Follow Your Dream
As you get older, it is as important that you have a dream for your Hoe as it was when you were young. You may have a better chance of achieving it, now that the basics needs of life—financial security, starting a career, raising a family, etc.—are no longer of primary importance to you. So, before you close this book up and put it back on the shelf, make sure that you have developed a vision for Yourself. Make a plan for who you want to be one, five, or ten years from now. This does not have to mean starting a new career or taking on some huge project (but that is okay, too). More importantly, it means becoming the kind of person you really want to be in terms of character and your interaction with the world around you. If you have ever thought to yourself, “I want to leave the world a better place than I found it,” now is the time to act on that desire.
To find your vision, find what really fills you with a sense of joy and contentment. For most, this will probably involve contributing something of value to your community or the world. Don’t be afraid to set your goal high and to dream big.
Some people will claim that meditation is pagan, anti-Christian, or other things. These opinions are misinformed. Meditation is actually non-denominational ; it supports all religious traditions by encouraging self-truth and contemplation. What’s more, meditation has been proven to improve longevity, help with stress management, strengthen the immune system, assist in pain control, lift chronic fatigue, and positively affect a host of other problems. Meditation is a powerful tool that you can use in your quest to become a more enlightened person.
