Chibaby Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Sometimes I think, what the hell am I doing with my life. Why am I such an idiot? I always feel like I took the wrong path in life and I just want to run away from everything. I don't think I can ever be satisfied. Do I even have a future? I mean, it's not like I mope around every day, but I just don't have a passion or purpose. Do normal people think this way? It's not like I'm a teenager who doesn't know WTF is up. Is there something wrong with me?

I mean, it's not like I mope around every day, but I just don't have a passion or purpose. Do normal people think this way? It's not like I'm a teenager who doesn't know WTF is up. Is there something wrong with me? I don't have any answers for you. But I can tell you you're not alone in this. I often ask myself those exact same questions. I have those feelings of being without purpose, without any real hopes for the future. Life often feels simply like survival for me, more so than an enjoyable journey. I will offer this. Somewhere inside of us *is* our passion. The thing we love. I believe we've just distanced ourselves from it so much that we are no longer aware of what it is. One suggestion I can offer is look for the things you catch yourself doing when your not really paying attention. I sing. Often when my mind wanders, or I'm just alone in my apartment, I find myself singing. I find it feels amazingly natural and relaxing to just sing to myself in times of stress. So I've often wondered if perhaps I should try and encourage that side of myself more (My profession is IT...). Perhaps if you look for the things that you appear to gravitate towards, you'll find clues to what your passion might be. Good luck.
