How to Find My Purpose in Life by CM Herold

Step 1

To find purpose in life, open your mind and be willing to discover an image or images that represents your passion. Look for pictures on the computer or in magazines. Google images is a good place to start on the computer. Soon you’ll be on your way to finding your purpose in life.

Step 2

To find your purpose in life, think about your life especially the years before you were eighteen. Think about your deeply held convictions about life. Choose pictures that evoke an emotional response. They just need to be images that involve a certain “sting” for you. It’s not nessecary that you know why they create an emotional response from you.

Step 3

Copy the images onto a word document or on a free web page. Google pages offers free web pages, and images are easy to post. If you don’t have a computer, cut your images out and glue them to a large cardboard. Your purpose in life will soon be revealed to you.

Step 4

Look for underlining repetitive themes in the images you choose. They will lead you to your purpose in live. Write about them on your web page, on a word document, or on a piece of paper. Search for a moment or moments during your childhood that connect to your theme. Eventually an image should appear for you that represents your passion or calling in life.

When Albert Einstein was a little boy, his father gave him a compass. He was fascinated by the compass. The compass was his image that represented his discovery of the theory of relativity after he became an adult.

Step 5

Keep writing about your image or images. Take your time. For some people, their image will appear right away. Others may take a little longer.

Step 6

After you discover your image, make changes in your life that will put you on the road to achieving your passion. You will find that your purpose in life will lead you to be of service to others.

Religious Dietary Practices

 Christian 

For most Christians, eating habits are not affected- though some will be vegetarians, usually for moral reason, and some will refrain from eating meat on Fridays. Some sects, for instance Mormons, have many rules and restrictions regarding eating and drinking, for sample complete abstinence from tea, coffee and alcohol and an emphasis on wholesome eating.

Judaism (kosher) 

Jewish dietary laws are known as Kashrut, and are among the most complex of all religious food practices. The term Kosher, or Kasher means fit and describes all foods that are permitted for consumption.

A Kosher kitchen is divided into separate sections one for dairy, meat and pareve. Different sets of utensils, pots, pans, plates, knives, chopping boards, one for meat and poultry and the other for dairy foods. If your kitchen is not normally used for kosher food, it would be well advised to source a local Kosher caterer to provide a certified kosher meal for the guest. They would provide Kosher utensils, cups, plates for the occasion. The meal can easily be re heated in an oven or microwave but must be keep covered so the guest can see the rabbinic certifications seal is intact. In most major cities there are supermarkets, shops and caterers that provide kosher prepared foods and products.

 Many Jewish people practice some or all of these restrictions in various degrees. It would be best to inquire as to what if any restrictions they have.

• No pork, and shellfish.
• Fish is acceptable as long as it has fins and scales.
• All animals with split hooves and which chew the cud (including sheep and cows)
• Refrain from eating meat and dairy products at the same meal
• No wine, unless its kosher wine
• All meat has to be prepared by a qualified kosher butcher (SHOCHET)
• If meat was eaten in the same day, one must wait six hours before consuming any dairy products

Muslim

 This religion has various food restrictions according to there own dietary laws, which are Halaal. Muslim celebrate the birth of Mohammed at the end of February or early in March. During the holy month of Ramadan, Muslims are not allowed to eat from dawn to sunset. However young children, pregnant women and the sick are often exempted. As similar to other religions, it would be advisable to enquire as to what restrictions the guest has.

This is hilarious! You must be Asian and from HK, Singapore or Malaysia to comprehend.

You might like it. This is hilarious….. even an Englishman could not construct sentences using numeric, which is exclusive only to the Chinese from Hong Kong, Malaysians and Singaporeans. A must read with Chinlish in mind.

Ah Lek was asked to make a sentence using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

Not only did he do it 1 to 10, he did it again from 10 back to 1. This is what he came up with…..

1 day I go 2 climb a 3 outside a house to peep. But the couple saw me, so I
panic and 4 down. The man rushed out and wanted to 5 with me. I ran until I fell 6 and threw up. So I go into 7-eleven and grabbed some 8 to throw at him. Then I took a 9 and try to stab at him. 10 God he run away.

10 I put the 9 back and pay for the 8 and left 7-eleven. Next day I called
my boss and told him I was 6. He said 5, tomorrow also no need to come back 4 work. He also asked me to go climb a 3 and jump down! I don’t understand. I am so nice 2 him but I don’t know what he 1.
