John ponders the meaning of life as time takes him into another year

On the cusp of a new year, John asked himself this question: "How can I improve my life in 2018?" John wondered to himself then, why he should even try to improve his life, at all. "Are we here to improve our life, and to learn some type of lessons while we are here then, or not (from our various experiences here)?" John thought this now to himself, before he pondered on some more like this: "When something happens in our life, like today, when some other man was chosen to take down the Communion gift to the Priest today in Church, instead of me, who usually does this, is there any lesson in that for me, or is it just a random happening, with no real connection, or meaning, or lesson element to it, for me, at all?" Jack Small had been asked to take it down the front to the priest, on this the last day of the old year, instead of John, who had been doing it every week, of the year, before that. "Well," John thought aloud, "the life of each person revolves around themselves until it revolves around love, which it can only do once you accept Jesus Christ into your life fully." "Every experience is then one with Jesus in it too, and so you gain love from it, by allowing an unseen truth to be brought out to you, so you grow in that truth of love, understanding it more wisely, and so you are then able to live from it more wisely then too." John was in the habit of pondering hard and long on every experience and event in his life, like this, in order for him to try to extract some higher meaning from it all, for himself, that he could take on board to improve himself by. John expected that in the New Year, he would continue to do this too. Picture credit: The picture used here has been freely taken from the free media site, Pixabay.com.
