It Was All For . . . .? Joel M Wilson

Sometimes we need to ask ourselves real personal, deep down, heart-and-soul searching questions about our life. What is a or the goal or ambition that I am obsessed with now? Why so, and what motivated it in the first place? Will I really be happy and satisfied with my life if I achieve it, or will I then just get obsessed with something else supposedly above and beyond what I initially thought was the ultimate satisfaction? If I do not succeed, can I still be happy with my life, or will I just bitter and depressed over that missed goal for the rest of my life? But it still goes deeper yet. If I do achieve what I am obsessed with now, what will it all mean when I die? What will I bring from it all with me to the grave? What impact will it have on anybody or everybody one hundred years after I die? One thousand years later? So then, is that goal I am obsessed with right now really worth all the effort, energy, and sacrifice after all?
