What am I supposed to do?

I am gonna make this a short post...I am in a deep contemplative mood pondering what my purpose is...what am I supposed to do with myself and my life...I feel so inadequate and useless....

Quarter-life crisis, eh?

You could ask any number of people and get the same answer, as you well know - you're not inadequate and you're not useless. You are just without direction, like other people you know. College? Writing? Travel? What makes you happy? And having found that...

How can you achieve it?

I'd still like your imput on some lyrical ideas, too... you've got such a wired brain, going places all the time. Maybe all your interaction is merely an escape? It catches up with you, as I'm sure you know.

Or maybe, you're purpose is not a thing, place, or destination, but merely a sense of productivity and peace. People find that anywhere. Just, for the love of GOD, don't become complacent. I couldn't stand to see that happen to you.

When the world without has shown no answers, look to the world within. Or, one of my favourite quotes... (not to be confused with the similar Confucius quote)

Q: How many steps compose a journey of a thousand miles?

A: One. The step you are taking right now.

I don't have any deep words of wisdom for you. All I can say is I'm going through the same shit. Not in school.Just starting out with the job and shit. the place between full on resonsibilty and wanting to play.
