"To have passion, to have a dream, to have a purpose in life. And there are three components to that purpose, one is to find out who you really are, to discover God, the second is to serve other human beings, because we are here to do that and the third is to express your unique talents and when you are expressing your unique talents you lose track of time." - Deepak Chopra

They always say that people who lives in depression are said to be people who have lost their ways. They lost their ways in life and are struggling to climb back. But actually, people in depression is not people who are lost. They are actually people who are drifting by in life without any specific destination in mind. Lost people in the other hand, have a destination in their mind, they just cannot find the way. People who are drifting are far more dangerous as they have no intention of living their life and does not even react to the happenings around their life. They only float by in life waiting for it to end. Referring to the above two quotes, it is important that we have a definite goals for ourselves as to not let us float by. The goal will drive us forward and live life to our potential and not let the environment control us. It does not matter how big or small the goal is. By having it, it will give the energy for us to take control of our life and pushing us to explore life and living it to the fullest.
