Purpose

What if life could be understood forwards? What if you could see the shape of your life now, well before its end?

 

I walked this path and left a legacy….

 

Sculptors often say that they do no more than liberate the sculpture rather than create. Can a life be sculpted in the same way? The means can be varied infinitely towards the same end.

 

What tools, whose hands and how long?

 

My question, essentially, is how early in life can you know or discover your purpose? If you know that your life’s work cannot begin until you know what it is, how can you go about discovering it sooner?
