Following simple Rules of life
The comments on my last two buzzes sent me into a deep journey with myself. I know that every day passes my existence on earth will be closer. Has my purpose in life has changed? When I was young I had more time to live than now. Does having a purpose in life change with age? I tried to be honest with myself I answering these questions. Sometimes we answer questions by asking more questions. I found myself in this situation.
Life has its own complexity that may emerge from following simple rules. So, what are the simple rules that guided my life so far? I say without realizing this before that the simple rules I followed were:
1. Treat others as I would love them to treat me.
2. Do what you have passion for and act on it
3. In serving others I serve myself.
These simple guiding rules don't change with time except for what we I am passionate for. I used to love doing research and then my passion changed to understanding peoples' behaviors. However; these rules interact and feedback to each other. For example, the better I treat people, the more they shall be willing to serve me and vice versa. When I do what I have passion for I shall be in peace with myself and more ready to serve self and others.
My intentions become purposeful without even planning for them to be. Purpose is an emerging result of my following these simple rules. Here I question the validity of designing our purpose when it is simply an emerging one. It is in a way like culture- an emerging property resulting from how people interact with each other.
Ali Anani, PhD
It is following simple rules that lead to discovering the meaning of life. It is self-driven and isn't imposed from an outside force. These rules are what cause us to self-organize and find meaning to my life. These rules give me my authenticity and who I am. We need to grow the realization that not only birds, for example, follow simple rules that lead to the emergence of their beautiful flying patterns. We may have our own simple rules that would give our lives a flying pattern. It this conclusion is true then it negates my long-standing belief that I should find a purpose for my life. We don't plan for emerging properties; otherwise why do we call them emerging?
Do what you are passionate about and then look how to make it useful for the world all within respect for others and treating them the way you like to be treated. My purpose in life shall then find me.
What do you think?

My dear friend David Navarro L\u00f3pez- we have been connected on social media for more than six years now. During this period we developed enough trust between us even to exchange our private concerns. So, your comments have their unique value to me. Your comment here is so pleasing because I know it comes from your own experiences. You put in it a practical meaning. Yes, we set the rules for our behaviors and these rules later shape our behavior and even unknown and unexpected results. I know even in the darkest our something great out of nowhere emerges. I know one thing for sure- love for your manners and human quality fill my heart towards you.

Dear Franci\ud83d\udc1dEugenia Hoffman. I like also your two-ways approach to purpose "I believe our purpose in life finds us as much as we may endeavor to find our purpose". A very profound comment indeed

Yes, for me the journey is more interesting than the destination. We experience far more on a journey than arriving at the destination. No question that I support and concur fully with your comment.

Yes I think it takes a number of decades to get to be content with your/one's self. But that's ok as the process is as important as the product. Just as sometimes the journey is just as, if not more important than the destination. Many people do not understand that and are impatient, rush and take short cuts. I doubt they have insight and contentment as their product.

Sounds to me like maybe it's just been dusted off again and given a new coat. It comes across as too fluid to be completely new. A lifetime of learning and wisdom in a new guise. The Emperor's new clothes ? Maybe not !

With all honesty dear Sara Jacobovici what you wrote "reads" what I feel now. I found myself only today. Sometimes we think we know self, but surprisingly not so true. Yes, I have just begun a new way of looking at life. It is never too late. I feel energized.

Thank you dear .I realize now that we all have simple rules running our lives whether we are aware of them or not. This is a call for all to try to find those simple rules because by changing them we may change the outcome. I had this self-talk this morning and I felt sharing with you. We need to remember as these are rules so every one of us is responsible for the rules he makes for self. WE don't affect the output, but we may change te input.
