    D2VISUALARTS32

    "I Matter Because..." What is purpose? The reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. "I Have Purpose" Because I Exist! Having purpose/What does that mean? It means having something to live for. "It means having a goal or a set of goals" Which drive us forward. It's like the famous song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" in the movie the Wizard of Oz. "Dreams really so come true!" For example: The singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
