Nothing in the Universe exists solely for itself. You are not alive just for the sake of being alive. The purpose of your life is much bigger than your life so if all you think about is your life, then you're missing out on the purpose for your life.

About This Quote

Nothing in the Universe exists solely for itself. You are not alive just for the sake of being alive. The purpose of your life is much bigger than your life so if all you think about is your life, then you're missing out on the purpose for your life. We have been presented with a problem and we have been given a set of rules to solve it.

We have been given a chance to learn from the experiences we encounter. What a gift! Everything that happens to you is a gift because it can teach you something new and put you in a situation where you can grow and learn from what you do. We cannot expect to get anything out of our lives, except maybe a few laughs or a little happiness, if we don't appreciate what's happening around us.

These experiences are not only useful because they bring us closer together, but also because they show us how fundamentally interconnected we all really are.
