Knowledge

In search of the meaning of my life, I have been stuck with answering the question of defining one’s self. How do I define my quest?

How do I determine my path forward?

How do I achieve the success to finish a quest just to start another?

These are the questions that need to be answered which I believe to help someone define one’s self. Again, this is why I have created the unfinished quest. These questions may never be answered but we will always try to achieve our quests. One quest ends, you should have another quest waiting. We all become travelers on a path and have to make decisions like Robert Frost mentioned in The Road Not Taken.

Are you willing to travel down the paved path or the one less taken?

The unfinished quest was created because we are all trying to answer the questions that define us. Once we are able to do that, the next quest awaits. Define yourself by making a goal for yourself and seeing how to achieve that goal. Make the steps to achieve those goals and seek the help of others to help you reach the end of the quest. Many great stories are written because the people that went about quests did so because they were trying to define themselves. They wanted to be considered more than what they are, by achieving a goal they set out for themselves and creating a plan to execute it. A lot of the stories also seek the aid of others to help conquer the quest. In the meantime, the others that assisted also had a quest of their own.

My fellow travelers find your quest, seek the aid of others if so, be it, and use unfinished quest to help you. We are all here for you and to help you achieve and find what it means to define one’s self. We are a community all on our own independent quests but a community that could help each other. Go and seek what you are looking for, may our path cross one day, and may you find your quest upon this unfinished quest.

Inspire hope because hope is to cherish a desire with anticipation: to want something to happen or be true, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary. Hope is the level that all people are desiring. To inspire hope in individuals means to bring them to a level of what they desire because “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”, from the Preamble of our US Constitution. This was to inspire hope among all Americans and not just a few. We all desire for our nation to be great because we want to be great and the hope of being great is in each one of use to inspire it. Great as a noun in Merriam-Webster is an outstandingly superior or skillful person. As an adjective it talks about being notably large is size, of a kind characterized by relative largeness —used in plant and animal names, to elaborate or amble, a large in number or measure, etc. The common tread is great is to be larger than life and be recognized as a outstandingly skillful person. To be great is something to strive for by providing hope and inspire others to do the same. Through greatness comes the ability of becoming legendary. Legendary in Merriam-Webster is of, relating to, or characteristic of legend or a legend or well-known/famous. Many individuals that inspire hope, were great, and became legendary and we all know them well through history in great detail. The question that needs to be asked in today’s society what would you like to be know for?

Me, I like to be well-known for inspiring hope, being great, so that one day I might become legendary. This is a task not taken lightly and should be emulated in everything I am striving for. To be great is hard in a world of negativity but every positive light that is coming through a veil of negativity, it can still make it through. Be that light by inspire hope and bring on greatness, so that people you helped will know that you are legendary one of a kind. Food for thought and may everyone carpe diem.
