But the most important aspect of the group is the reminder of what the important things in life are. It is incredible how caught up we get in the details of our daily, hectic routine. It is enough to drive us batty. We need time to step back and reflect upon the purpose of our lives. There must be something more important than battling the Beltway and going from one appointment to another.
Life is too short to be wasted being stressed.
A life spent mostly trying to get to the next appointment is a life unfulfilled. We need to know that there is some reason why we make the appointments. Living life just focussed on the next bill to pay or the next doctor s visit causes us to lose sight of the possibility that there is a higher purpose. If our lives are lived in order to make as much money as we can, or to be at work as much as possible, or to take care of business, then I believe we are not truly living. I believe that there is a loftier, deeper meaning to life.
