"Find out who you are and do it on purpose."This quote was given by an unsuspecting singer/songwriter/actress who has accomplished much but the greatest accomplishment she's attained was knowing and loving herself. The quote was so simple it got me pondering on my desire to find the most profound and artistic words ever spoken. I feed on knowledge and the structure of words. I light up reading and hearing subtle metaphors with hidden meaning and oxymoronic forms of phrases, which shift the course of a sentence to mean nothing and everything in a single moment.
This quote; however, boggled me. I read it over and over again as if the words were transforming me with ever consonant and vowel.
"Find out who you are and do it on purpose."
With this I'm elated and blessed and joyful and content. The majority of my life held many attempts to attain this visualization of happiness thereby pouring my soul into what I thought was love and that kind of love left me bitter and baptized in feelings of rejection. I'm no longer feeling rejected and bitter. I'm no longer allowing the lack of my accomplishments to cloud my better judgment because even if I have nothing tangible to feel, I feel blessed to know and been baptized in Christ Jesus. So, I count my blessings and not my problems; I AM that I AM!
YOU ARE who YOU ARE…
And if you don't know who you are…
"Find out who you are and do it on purpose." It's worth it…
Dolly Parton is a wise woman.
