southern california guy Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Definitely not anything religious for me. For me it's always been relationships with people -- family, friends, coworkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximilianus Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) [quote name='tnavarro61' timestamp='1297865410' post='2212935'] this thread made me realized that I need to have a day-to-day goal. I feel the need to accomplish something good for God and His people this day. It doesn't matter if it's big or small, as long as the Good Lord is pleased with it. This is it: my goal for each day is to please the Lord... and this shall make my day/life fulfillling! "Let your life change the world one person at a time... With God's love, change the world with your life!" -Danielle Rose [/quote] Your post reminds me of this [url="http://usscouts.org/advance/boyscout/bsslogan.asp"]http://usscouts.org/...ut/bsslogan.asp[/url] Edited February 21, 2011 by Maximilianus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Therese Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 hmmm. i dont think i ever feel fulfilled at the end of a day... there's always a sense of 'there's something more' and even a sense of longing. i think it will be that way all of my life! its that 'already and not yet' thing. having said that, i still have days that are overwhelmingly positive and this will normally correspond to a valuable prayer experience (sometimes not pleasant experiences, but valuable neverhteless) or having accomplished something difficult but worthwhile. special times with my family also contribute to this - we're a musical bunch so its lovely to end up having a jam with them after dinner. tonight my sister brought home a book with elgar's ave maria and photocopied it and we all sat around the dinner table after our meal sight-singing the four different parts to it. sounded amesome imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresita Nerita Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I don't know what it is exactly (prayer?) but since I got my act together and really started liking suffering and sacrifice and understanding the whole "cross" part of Christianity, my days have been SO long and SO fulfilled. Every day since Epiphany (which i think was the day i received the "grace of full conversion") I look back and I'm like, wow, was that seriously one day? Also - art. I've never been so happy as I have been lately, working on this particular project (from which phatmass offers the ultimate procrastination!)

LadyOfSorrows Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) There's this boy with down syndrome who works with me. I've been assigned to watch him on specific days. He has taught me so much about being childlike and simple. Every interaction with him is such a gift, such a blessing from God.

Sarah147 Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 I agree with much of what people have said. It makes me feel good if I was loving and gentle with people I met in the day. Being a witness to Jesus and spreading His love is what really matters to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
