One professor once said when you wake up in the morning, to think about these two questions and find answers cos it might give different answers everyday. Think about this and tell me what you got as answers.

Today, I'm an accountant and my purpose is to do our families Business and Personal Federal & State Taxes. or to at least start organizing the information and totals. lol You know....sometimes I do wake up wondering who the heck am I really and what is my actual purpose here. I talk to the Lord and thank him for the new day and ask him to use me for his purpose...whatever it may be. Then things happen like...my Parents call for me to come help them, my mother-in-law asks me to help her with her Business contracts, or the school calls with a problem one of my sons are facing, or my husband asks me to make some coffee. Funny thing is....the Lord reminds me that people rely on me. There has only been one day that I clearly recall being able to lay there in bed with no purpose other than to just pray for things that came to mind and then the kids came home from school and laying in bed wasn't my purpose any more. :)

Jules, usually I never give best responses on the same day that I started the discussion and with only 3 responses on it. But I just cant help it I have to give you the best. Thanks a lot for a very resonable and thoughtful answer. I have no doubt that you are a very good person. I am happy that you are my friend. Have a nice day and take care.

I am the caregiver of my grandmother who is holding onto life by a string. That's who I am. I think it's why I became unemployed too, so that I could be here with her right now - when she needs me the most. I may end up in the poorhouse, but I don't care!

I am me....A mother, a lover, a wife, a best friend, a chauffeuse, a maid, a chef, an accountant, a teacher, a student of life, a lover of fine arts, a jill of all trades and a mistress of none....and my reason for living is love of life.
