Feeling purpose

Sometimes you just and think about what is your purpose on this earth. If tomorrow you were to disappear, how many people will it affect ? I have been spending a lot of time in my comfort zone at home. Sometimes it makes me feel privileged to live this life. I really wish to make some difference if not for anyone else then just myself. I feel my brain has become stagnant and it really needs to start working again before I loose my ability to be creative and think rationally. All I want is to lead a purposeful life.

The people that you least expect. Those that see you around but you may not see them. Your thoughts are what many of us have thought. If you were not here I would not have had the opportunity to relate.

Hello. I wonder if you are well enough to have a go at being creative in some way? Or now is a great time to start growing a bit of salad on your window sill, or some flowers. Baby steps. 😀

worry about how not who or if because every time you interact with someone you affect them people will remember you so it's how they remember you that matters.

I relate to this so much, Jenna. I'm on a gap year and I'm not really accomplishing much at the moment. I feel so overwhelmed and aware of so many corruptions in the world and that I wish to contribute to making it better. But I don't know how and I don't know where to start or what feels right or authentic to me. I'm constantly questioning what my purpose on this earth is because I want to get it right.
