Hello,

Thank you for your kind words @ivan , I hope to realize what my purpose is, I once saw a quote, only 3 words were enough to make me cry and smile at the same time: “born to serve”. What do you think? 🙂

@anita , hello again 🙂 . I would like this story to mean that the reason ” I came back to life” is to share that little golden star with whoever I can. I think that is the most important thing for me, to make people shine, at the same time it helps me to shine too. Is that correct?

Thank you again 🙂

Dave

Hi Anita,

For me that golden spark is something that we all have but we forget about it. I can clearly remember a moment at the age of 7 years when I said to myself: “I’m gonna be a good boy at the school”, it turned out to be a good man at this life time. I decided to walk around in the world without an armor and let my inner self to express itself, to discover the truth about me. I know that right now I can’t help other people as I want, since I’m going through a healing and acceptance process of my past. I want to find peace within myself to share it with everyone I can.
As I said in other post, I can feel that my purpose will be to serve, to help people to realize their full potential, to make people smile, to be simple and genuine. There are so many thoughts in my head right now that I can’t write how deep they are.

Thanks for your guidance Anita;

Dave

Dear Anita;
I’m glad to read your words, it’s very meaningful for me.
I always fall on that same mistake too. When I was younger I wasn’t ready or didn’t got enough resources to fulfill others needs so it made me felt sad many times, as you also experienced. It can make you feel empty or lacking of something, sometimes people even take advantage of that and manipulate you.
In time I learned to put myself first, that might sound selfish but I like to think it like this: you got to be as good to you as you want to be good to other people, in order to serve others in the world without getting hurt yourself or hurting other people. When your cup is full, what comes out of the cup is for others to take but what is inside the cup is mine. The more I grow, the more I can offer to the world.
I realized it a few days ago, reading the posts on another thread where I shared my uncle’s destructive behaviour. We can’t sacrifice our entire existence, joy and happiness just for the sake of pleasing somebody else. Compassion is about service and embrace the world as it is as Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche said.

When you asked me to see what is inside the poison in my heart I understood that true compassion comes from the true heart, the one we always try to hide from others, the one who is so pure that no poison can destroy it, our true nature. What comes out from there is really pleasing not only for people but for yourself too, that’s a great kind of service and maybe the most authentic from my point of view.

We can use that inner core to bring back to life our heart, when the flower of compassion blooms on it, then we can really start to heal and make great changes in the world, isn’t that right? 🙂 .

Thank you Anita, for bringing me smiles and hope on my path again, regards

Dave
