Meaningful Life!!!!!!!!!

Each of us have a goal in our life. Our goal should provide us a sense of purpose, momentum and impetus to human life. We are not mere wanderers, we have something to achieve here. Swami Vivekananda says 'if a man with a specific goal commits 1000 errors in his life, a man who has no mission in life will commit 50000 errors'. A life without a purpose is like a ship without a compass, it doesn't know where to go.

In Achieving our goal we face many hurdles like our own pleasures, comforts, ego etc. We have to break all these obstacles standing in front of us to reach our goal.
Once we have achieved our goal, our life doesn't end there, we have to serve our society. What we give to the society should be more than what we receive. A person receives knowledge, food, love, a sense of security etc from the society. But what we give back to society????????????
For example, to make u understand easily, if we borrow Rs.100 from society and give back only Rs.10.... Society loses Rs.90. Here the investment made on 'U' by the society becomes unproductive. So if we are not paying back atleast what we receive from society, our society will be bankrupt soon.

For a country to become richer, every citizen should contribute much more than what he receives from it. Before making your new year resolution, think of your society jus for a second.
