Fulfillment Changes as Life and Priorities Evolve

I'll share my thought on this prompt from the Bible perspective, because I feel the perfect example of why fulfillment is a feeling and very subject to one's view of what fulfillment is, is in the Bible. The story of Solomon, the wealthiest man that ever lived and a lot of rich people today said the same... Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity.

I believe that crosses out fulfillment to mean having remarkable wealth. While a poor man might see having great wealth would be the fulfillment he desires, he might still not be fulfilled when he experiences the great wealth. So in that thought, I believe there is more to one actually feeling fulfilled with great or less wealth.

I believe fulfillment in life is subject to different perspectives, what a man truly wants and he gets it at a point could bring fulfilment. And then fulfillment is a continuous search, as one who finds fulfillment in wealth may be in search of fulfillment in family, children or even in lifestyle. The search continues as man lives, till his death.

And there's nothing wrong in searching for fulfilment as one lives, I believe it is a sign of growth as what we've always say is, one must never stop learning. The day you stop learning is the day you die, learning is simply a way of searching for fulfilment in different aspects of life so it continues as one keeps learning to grow.

So is it possible to have a permanent fulfillment in life? I'll say it's a yes and no answer, depending on each person. One of the beautiful things I've learned recently is, keeping record of one's life can actually keep you staying grateful, fulfilled and growing constantly. That way, you see the times you've felt fulfilled as you pursue another.

Fulfillment has everything to do with one's mindset first, then purpose, achievements and even family. How each person sees life, happiness and contentment is different and that says a lot about how one can feel fulfilled. One can be fulfilled in different ways and still seek fulfillment in new adventure or new discoveries.

So in conclusion, personally, fulfilment is very possible but totally dependent on what you see it as. For me, I feel fulfilled with some things in my life and I'm pursuing the ones I still seek to feel fulfilled in. It doesn't mean I am not contented because I make sure not to let what I pursue overwhelm me. I go at my pace, staying grateful.
