Finding purpose in your life can feel pretty impossible for many people. We spend years studying in school, changing jobs, making new relationships, all the while trying to be true to ourselves.
I often try to ask myself if what I do or how I feel will matter in the years to come. Life is a winding road and you truly never know what's going to come next. When Carol Gardner turned 52 and found herself divorced, depressed and in debt, she barely recognized her own life.
At the suggestion of a friend, Carol adopted an adorable bulldog named Zelda, who ended up changing her life forever. Struggling to pay her bills, Carol decided to enter a local greeting card contest to win dog food for 1 year. She took a photo of Zelda in a Santa Claus hat and wrote “For Christmas I got a dog for my husband… good trade, huh?." Carol won and quickly realized she had found her true calling.
Now "Zelda Wisdom" greeting cards is a multi-million-dollar empire. Carol and Zelda's story is one of many in CBS Sunday Morning's "Later Bloomers" series, but no matter how old or how driven you are, the following video is guaranteed to inspire you.
