Enduring richness
Enduring richnessWhat a sad and empty life is pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, but with no joy. What a torment to be consumed with possessions, possessions, possessions, but no substance.How hollow is an existence of ease, convenience, gratification, but no fulfillment. Days are full of spectacles, dramas, thrills, but no meaning.Experiences unfold with speed, activity, sensation, but no understanding. There’s great power, leverage, and potential, but no purpose.It doesn’t require genius to avoid such existential emptiness. What it does take are effort, commitment, responsibility, gratitude, discipline and humility.The meaning you experience is the meaning you’re willing to give. Fulfillment grows out of value created, not from anything that’s merely consumed.The quick and easy shallowness can be supremely enticing, but can never be sustaining. At every juncture, choose instead the enduring richness of investing yourself in improving life for all who share it with you.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/celebrities-motivational-speech/donations Hosted on Acast.
