    Take it one day at a time. Find some things that you love to do each day or several times a week so you can fill yourself up to be able to endure the mundane parts. I love to hike in nature, so I have two dogs who need mega exercise, our daily hike is non-negotiable, I have to get out there or there is no living with my boys. Eat foods that you like, rent movies you enjoy, plan vacations to places you want to see....ask yourself...what do I really want, what do I love? If it's learning music then move forward with that, your job is to support your life....it shouldn't BE your life. It's nice if you are one of the few that has a career that fills up their soul...but for most people that isn't reality....so try to live each day to the fullest despite the job. Each day is a new start....what can YOU do to make today a good one?

    So, i pretty much endure it. I'm 27, and i have no idea what i want in life. I have a good job (IT), it allows me to be independant, but it doesnt fullfill me one bit.

    I want to do something meaningful and fun, the problem is that i dont have a clue what that may be. Like a month ago or so, i started to take piano lessons, i sometimes wonder if music is my thing. I dont know, i feel like i dont know anything, and that i know really little about myself.

    So, have you ever feel like this? Did you find your passion in life? Do you think everyone has a passion for something, or some of us just arent that lucky.. i dont know.

    btw, i dont feel down or anything, i guess i feel empty, but for the most part, i dont know... :|
    Life is a blessing, appreciate every moment. An opportunity to love another person and make others happy.
    We never know what we have till we lose it. Take a look around and try to learn from what others have lost. Everyday everywhere someone is hurting. It could be you.
    Fulfillment is found in just being alive and looking outside yourself and your own world.
    Do something nice for someone, reach out and love, it fills the day and your heart. That is the passion for life itself, loving.

    I try for the most part to enjoy it. Not to get all corny but you never know what could happen tomorrow. The only area I feel I truly endure is my job. It's just a means to an end. The only good thing about my job is we are helping people and I try to think about that aspect of it. But I work with a lot of petty people who make my job harder then it has to be so it's a challenge most days. But I have eliminated a lot of toxic people from my life. I feel life is too short to have emotional vampires for friends.

    I enjoy it and avoid getting frustrated with things I can't control such as space constraints on stories or lack of timeliness on stories I submit for the web.
