Do you know your life's purpose?

I truly have to wonder how that must feel?
There's nothing in me that can motivate me, no passion exists to light that flame.
All I see....is a never ending field of golden swaying wheat...a beautiful blue sky, with splashes of fluffy white clouds here and there.
I'm standing amongst this field..looking for a vision of something...even if it is in the far distance...a spec of something.
At least then, a direction, a plan and paths are created to reach your goal to get there.
Nothing...
I just walk aimlessly thru the field on auto pilot...totally empty...I can feel myself fading.
No matter what direction I take...I eventually end up back in the same place!
Standing in the middle of a golden wheat field!!

I strong sense of emptiness.

My purpose was to be a mathematician, but I didn't care much for the math curriculum at college and dropped out, and after a little bit of time trying to find myself I'm now trying to become an electrician. Life can be unpredictable you just need to keep a stiff upper lip and keep trying

I agree.
What if you have gone on so many different paths..you have lost sight of another path?@JRVanguard

@wiltingflower Sometimes you just gotta jump on another path, I joined the Army when I was 17, thought that would be my life but I got separated 3 months in and had to try something else. If paths aren't fruitful it's best to lose sight of it rather than always thinking "what if?"
