make tomorrow a little different from today

the past 6 months has been completely uneventful I feel. there definitely has been some memorable things, don't get me wrong. but when I looked back on California, going through the photos and videos from my phone, it seems a lot more memorable. is that all it takes to give myself more meaning in life? to instill myself with more purpose is to simply do something a little different tomorrow? you certainly can't feel as much purpose when every day feels the same, no?

the caveat: discomfort. I'm at the beach. that's the little thing I'm doing different today. and it sure is nice. it is different and nice. I wish all was like that. but some of the "tomorrow different from today" won't be all just easy, comforting things. some of it will be painful, stressful, uncomfortable. does it result in a greater, more powerful, more effective purpose added? purpose, differences, discomfort, it all seems to tie together. without leaving your comfort zone at times, how can you grow and develop and enrich your life? you can't proceed in life without risk. so maybe I should take more risk. if I want more meaning in life, do anything different tomorrow.
