Charitable feelings may flood your soul today, awakening you to the plight of those less fortunate than yourself. Even if you have never before engaged in philanthropic work, you may find yourself seeking opportunities to use your financial resources, skills, or social connections to improve the lives of others. In collecting donations and volunteering your time, you may begin to feel a sense of satisfaction unlike any you have felt in the past. This new level of personal fulfillment can inspire you to deem helping others your secondary purpose in life. Though you may still pursue a host of personal goals, you will also likely be drawn to situations in which your abundance can benefit the needy. The words of gratitude you receive today can change your life profoundly.

Your charitable endeavors can help you discover a soul's purpose wholly separate from what you do to serve the self. Our individual goals are often intimately intertwined with the drive we label "purpose." As a result, we feel compelled to make our ambitions our focus as we progress through our lives. It is, however, possible to realize and nurture a second more philanthropic purpose. When you selflessly serve others, your charitable aptitudes are revealed. You will feel a new level of fulfillment in improving the lives of those less fortunate than yourself, and the resultant satisfaction will cement your dedication to making the world a better place for others. Selfless service will become your secondary purpose in life when you strive to help others today.
