Meaningful Life


Do you want to live a meaningless or a meaningful life?  

I don't know about you but I want to live a meaningful life! 

However, I let the meaningless things in my life remain. 

What is meaningless

(This is going to be different for everyone.) 

I had not thought about the meaningless things that fill my day. 

Constantly checking or scrolling on facebook? Meaningless. 

Holding on to a grudge or a past hurt? Meaningless. 

The stuff I own that I do not use? Meaningless. 

Gossiping? Meaningless. 

Speaking uncharitably about people is meaningless. 

Is it easy to do? Yes. 

Is it meaningful, no.  

“Life is about saying yes to the things that help you become the-best-version-of-yourself and no to the things that don’t.”
― Matthew Kelly

Fill the meaningless with something meaningful! 

What is meaningful? 

Saying 'yes' to Jesus instead of meaningless things.   

Spending time with the people I love and love me in return. 

Finding joy in serving others. 

I have been following Matthew Kelly's Best Lent Ever Program. 

The theme this Lent is Generosity. 

Being generous with my time, talent and treasure is meaningful. 

We have only one life, let's make it meaningful!
