Finding meaning in Life

Jun 21, 2006 23:11

"Devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."

~ Morrie Schwartz

This quote is from Tuesdays with Morrie, by Mitch Albom.  A few days ago, my dad said to my brother and me that if we read it, we'd have a good idea of what he was going through right now.  We did... and it is wonderfully appropriate.

My father is probably the most loving men that you could ever meet.  He gives to the world on so many different levels.  He lives the ideal of this quote.  As a friend, as a son, a husband, father, and teacher, he has carried a purpose.  He is the rock cast into the still stream; his ripple effect has done so much for the world, that I am sure of.

We are so lucky to have him
