How We Find Purpose - Hosted by Craig Sicilia

After a brain injury many times we lose what once was, and we can be left living a life that seems meaningless. Life is meant to be lived with purpose and passion. Often we need to find or reinvent purpose in our live. It is not an easy journey in the face of so much loss. But like it or not it becomes a time to rebuild. It’s a time to reestablish our lives, to learn to love and appreciate this new person we have become. I believe if we let it we can find a greater purpose that before, one with passion and meaning. What makes things interesting at least for me the thing I once valued or believed look very much different to this new me. I have to be honest there are times I just want to give up, and pity myself and ponder on the losses. But as a post a fellow advocate once posted, “Joe Martin” made me think one day it could be worse. So as I move forward I know I don’t want it to be worse but I could possible make it that way. So lets share how we find purpose and embrace what we can do rather than what we can’t, because face it many people can’t do things. But we need to focus on what we can not what we used to be able to do but what we can. And as we accept the purpose based on what we can do, all the amazing and wonderful things that are possible.
