Purpose Isn't A Prerequisite

Do you need a purpose in life?
We're told to find one first. 
As if life requires a headline to unfold.
But life doesn't wait.

The search for purpose often becomes the delay itself. 
It demands clarity before action.  Certainty before movement.
So you wait.  What if the wait never ends?

Purpose, made too grand, paralyzes more than it propels. 
It turns life into a hunt for one defining goal. 
Everything else, apparently, needs a reason to exist.

Life doesn't arrive as a grand plan. 
It arrives as moments.
A cup of tea, steam rising. 
A quiet conversation that lingers. 
A meal eaten slowly, without distraction.
Small.  Unheroic.  Enough.
It's not about discovering the perfect "why." 
It's about living the "how."

A child laughs without a reason. 
A river flows without knowing the sea. 
Neither waits to become something.

Purpose isn't a prerequisite. 
It's a byproduct.
It may emerge while you're living.  Or it may not. 
Either way, life goes on.

I'd rather be a wave than an arrow.
Not fixed on a target. 
Just moving, rising, falling, and rising again.

Would you rather aim…  or live?
