There have been times in my life when I would have said no to this question and times I would have answered yes...Today I feel as if I have been throw off of a train and left in a dessert where there are no train tracks or train to get back on. When I think this thought, some days it is rather exciting knowing I can start a new book in life and other days when I feel rather lost and unmotivated

it certainly can feel like it at times... I'm still trying to find my direction. That is, if there really is a direction.

Well, there is one direction in which we are moving in a very linear fashion, and that is along the course of time. And because we can make decisions, life is not entirely random, but to a large degree, determined by our own choices. While there are certainly circumstances that may appear random, they are not uncaused. As we understand more of the relationship between the causes and effects in our life, we are more prepared to react to them accordingly. I do not find that my life has "no direction," on the contrary. I am moving through time, making the best decisions I can for myself and my family, planning for the future. So I'd have to say no.

not sure... my bf n i are facing difficulty to be together because of my family.. This is where religion and culture plays a big role in it too! I think my purpose in life is to love, and i have never loved anyone like i love him. It makes me wonder why from all people or from everything in my life, the biggest challenge i have to face has to be the one thing i want most. Is it cause God is testing me to see how long and how far i will go to make this relationship work? Or is it none of that? Am i just meant to break up with him to make my family happy when i can be unhappy and wonder what it wudve been like to grow old with him. Am i meant to sacrifice my love for my family? is that my challenge? or is it just none of that? cuz that just doesnt make sense... right now my bf is in his country and im in mine, we're still together and love each other and have so much hope, even though nothing is promising. We both are leaves blowing with no direction? or is love our direction?

Absolutely. I'm in what many are now refering to a "quarter-life crisis" I don't have any really concrete goals, I know what I want out of life, but I don't know how to get there. The job I work is pretty much dead end, but at the same time there are avenues within the company/business that could excel me where I need to be. It's just not happening as fast as I hoped. I moved downtown Chicago recently in hopes of finding what I'm looking for. While I am extremely happy with that decision, I have to say I still have no direction. I'm fine with rolling the dice, that's always been one of my motto's, but soon enough I'm going to want the dice to land on some solid numbers to figure out what I want.

Yes, compare to what I've experience within the last few month. Now, I'm stuck in the search mode to move on and let God show me the path and carefully wandering in this journey will lead me to the valley of love. In the valley of love here I'm seeking neighter knowledge or ignorance, because of the wisdom of past experience was just an illusion of material gain that was blown in the wind. Look at the flame that burns on a candle it wittered to stay lit, and struggle to share its light. We are like the candles in the wind. However, when the lit flame is out the remaining smoke ascends to new heights, our physical bodies become separated from our association with the eternal soul then the soul is free from the physical ties and journey to the higher reality of the presence of God. Yes, the wind blows the leaf with no direction, but God navigates the destination.
