The First Step on the Path to Life Purpose

Many people ask: What is my life purpose? How do I find it? Before we can fully awaken to our purpose, we need to recognise the path that leads us there. Finding alignment is not about seeking something outside ourselves. It’s about returning to our roots and grounding deeply in what is already present.

Honouring the earth, the whole of nature, and our heritage is the first step. When we acknowledge where we come from and the forces that have shaped us, those who walked before us, the land that sustains us, and the interconnectedness of all things then we begin to realise that our very existence is sacred. It is our birthright to be here, to take up space, to contribute to the unfolding story of life.

The earth is our life support system, our foundation. When we appreciate its gifts and recognize our place within it, we gain a clearer understanding of our role in the vast cosmos. We are not isolated individuals; we are each a unique piece of a greater whole, woven into the fabric of existence. Accepting this truth is both empowering and humbling. It transforms how we see ourselves and the purpose that calls to us.

The first step is the most vital one. The path to life purpose begins by grounding body, soul, and spirit to the earth, anchoring ourselves in the rhythms of life, embracing our interconnectedness, and opening to the wisdom that flows through us. Purpose is not something we chase; it is something we remember.

  1. Hi Gail
    Have you considered that in reality everyone has the same life purpose? By that I mean, to regain access to what is called the Tree of Life. The journey is probably more likened to the Salmon swimming back upstream, most never make it and die on the rocks, but there are a few that do survive the journey and when they do they are able to bring forth new life and regenerate their species.

    1. Oh yes, I think all roads lead to “Rome” We might do it differently, depending on our strengths and weaknesses, faith, belief, determination, compassion, empathy, etc and these things are the personal differences we have, and we may specialise in a few of them, and those we do are our gifts to the world; aka our purpose.

    2. Oh yes, I think the ultimate purpose is universal, while our individual gifts are ours to develop and then share: a type of mini, individual and multi-faceted purpose. Our jewels fit into the crown.
