Why is it so Difficult to Find Purpose in Life?
The world is looking for purpose in all the wrong places.
I’m actually tired of hearing about how everyone needs to find their “purpose” in life. That’s all we need to see for our one-way ticket to happiness, freedom, and joy, but is it?
But then I think, “maybe I have become tired of my same song and dance and search for my purpose that I’m pretty sure doesn’t exist, so I gave up long ago?”
What if your purpose is to survive or try and figure out why you are on a one-way hell to self-sabotage? It’s safe to say I am getting tired of myself. It’s not a pleasant feeling writing about negative emotions all the time.
Redirect your purpose
I try and redirect my “purpose,” but it always leads me back to where I am comfortable. In an anxiety-stricken life struggle, God damn, I love it here. No matter how much emphasis I put on a “new way” of thinking or lifestyle I always end up in the miserable comfort I’ve grown accustom to.
Why is it so Hard to Find Purpose in Life?
I ask myself this question often, but the more I ask, the more lost I become.
