An Inspired and Inspiring Life is
Not a Better Life
By Clyde E. Gumbs
Moment after moment and day after day people experience
life. If you ask them what they seek they may say many things. Although there may be some people who say they are content
with themselves and their lives just the way they are, most people will tell you they seek to be a better person with a better
life. If only they were more intelligent, more knowledgeable, more attractive, more physically fit, healthier, more skillful
and more focused. If only they had more money, more status, a better home, better cars, and all of the best stuff of life.
They may believe that the way to the “promised
land” requires devotion to being good, better, right and positive as contrasted with being bad, worse, wrong and negative.
This reflects the common societal view of life through the contexts of good versus bad, better versus worse, right versus
wrong, and positive versus negative. They may believe that they are more good, more right, more positive and better than they
were in the past. They may also believe that there are more good things, more of the right things, more positive things and
better things in their lives than there were in the past.
Unfortunately, despite what appears to be demonstrable
improvement, they find that either they never quite accomplish what they seek or that when they accomplish what they sought
it wasn’t as fulfilling as they had expected. Naturally this can be a very frustrating, disappointing and uninspiring
experience.
What if people gave up their quests for better lives?
What if people gave up their quests to be better people? What if people merely sought to live the lives they were born to
live? What if people merely sought to be the people they were born to be? What if people were born for inspired and inspiring
purposes? What if people were born to live inspired and inspiring lives? What if the opportunity of a person’s life
was to evolve in fulfillment of the purposes they were born for? What if all this took was a new level of awareness?
The Chrysalis Experience is
for people who seek to live the lives they were born to live. The Chrysalis Experience is for
people who seek to be the people they were born to be. The Chrysalis Experience is for people
who seek to live inspired and inspiring lives. The Chrysalis Experience is for people who seek to
live with a compelling sense of purpose and destiny. The Chrysalis Experience is for people
who seek the miraculous fulfillment of their purpose and potential.
