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.

Close your eyes. Feel the sunshine on your face. Move your hands over the tops of wheat. Connect. Be still & listen. Wander within. Your answer does not lie in the field.

Thank you.
I guess that's exactly what I am doing..subconsciously. So do you think it's within me...not in the field?@AnimatronicLick

@wiltingflower I believe you can find something in the field you'd like to do, but only through thoughtful meditation can you know who you want to become. It's on that journey that what you do becomes meaningful.

Why is it that I am not able to meditate?

@wiltingflower It's not easy. Some minds have been conditioned to analyze & process near constantly. Maybe yours does. Maybe it can partially account for what seems to be your restlessness. Practice. Try to be mindful of what is distracting you from your goal. Reclaim the attention you give to these things.
