如是說999

We were recently asked what the difference between purpose and service is. We would like to address this today.

我们最近被询问目标和服务之间有什么区别。今天我们就来说一下

Your purpose is the main theme or themes your soul has prioritized for experience during your life expression. Service is a means of showing love, compassion, and/or assistance. You can have many different forms of service that are tied into your purpose, and others that are not. Both purpose and service add to the expansion of your soul, as well as the whole, and are a means of self expression, so the two will frequently intertwine.

你的目标是你生命表达期间灵魂优先想要体验的主要主题或主题（复数）。服务是展示爱、慈悲和协助的一个方式。你可以拥有许多不同形式的服务，与你的目标捆绑在一起，还可以拥有不与你目标捆绑在一起的服务。目标和服务都会增加灵魂以及整体的扩张，是自我表达的一个方式，所以两者经常交织在一起

The main difference is your purpose tends to be a more specific focus of experience and self expression, where service can be experienced in a myriad of ways. For example, reaching down something from a high shelf for a stranger in a store is a loving act of simple service, but it is not directly tied into your soul’s purpose of being an inspiring teacher to a class of 8 year olds.

主要的区别就是你的目标倾向于成为一个更加具体/明确的体验和自我表达，而服务可以在无数的方式中体验。比如，在超市替陌生人从高架上拿东西就是一个简单的服务行为，但它并不直接与你灵魂的目标捆绑在一起（成为一个8岁学生鼓舞人心的老师）

Do you see? You might think of your purpose as being your major in your field of study on the planet. Your service may not always be your purpose, yet your purpose will always be your highest service, and ultimately all of it serves the whole. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young

你明白了吗？你可能会认为你的目标是你在地球学习领域中的专攻。你的服务可能并不总是你的目标，但你的目标总会是你最高的服务，最终这一切都会服务于整体。~大天使加百利
