“If you’re alive, there’s a purpose for your life.” – Rick Warren

So often the concept of a life’s purpose is some grandiose feat or amazing invention. What if our purpose is not an applause-worthy occurrence at all? What if it is a minute action that we are not even aware of, but something that simply sets in motion a chain of events that eventually causes the world to change for the better? Though we may create our goals and strive for our own achievements, in the grand scheme of things, how can we really know what our true purpose is? What if we deemed every action as purposeful in changing the world? How greatly would that change us?
