Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I don,t know what you believe in or don,t believe in!. I was with special forces in Viet Nam 69 and 70!. I was a combat soldier who was awarded the army commendation medal and two bronze stars!. I was just doing my job and although I was awarded medals, I had a hard time trying to deal with life!. I wasn,t proud of what I did and after going through deep depression and a lot of drugs to help me forget, I ended up with a serious mental disorder!. I had all but given up on life and looked for a way out but didn,t want to end it all!. I just wanted to find what was missing in my life!. I put a lot of stress on my family also by just going off to be alone!. They finally talked me into going to church with them!. I can,t explain what happened next but I know now it was divine intervention!. I,m not going to bore you with my lifes story but I did find what I was missing!. It wasn,t easy to come back from the living dead, but I did, and not a day goes by that I don,t thank God for giving me a new life in Christ!. I,m a sorry excuse for a Christian in some peoples eyes!. I still have a beer once in a while and still hang out with other harley guys, but now it,s different!. I found a reason to live!. It is up to you but if you really want something that others don,t believe in is up to you!. My life was turned around and if there is some small way I can help others like I was helped, then I feel I am passing on what was given to me!. I can,t make you believe in what you don,t want to but I am a living testimonial of the power of what God can do!. It all starts with a little faith and a prayer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Einstein said the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results!.

Examine your assumptions:
Career: For most of us that's a myth!. What's important is to earn bread!. "career" was spawned by egos!.
Family: The one you came from: Not your problem!. The one you create: first get head straight!.
Love: Give don't take!.


You are obviously emotionally involved with too much thinking!. Try an experiment!. Just watch!. This removes judgment, which is ego!. Just watch it, whatever it is, including inside the noise generator which is your brain!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

To do, or to be!.

I can only speak from my own experience!. I've been there!. What finally got me 'unstuck' was coming across the book 'To Do or To Be'!. Re-framing the question made me rethink everything!. My problem was 'not knowing who I was', and not 'not knowing what to do'!.

We are as they say, 'human beings' not 'human doings'!. Asking myself 'what to be' was a greater and more meaningful challenge than 'what to do'!.

Look around you!. Try to find someone who you admire!. They don't have to be real, they could be a fictional character!. Ask yourself why you admire that character!. What traits resonate for you!.

Find a mentor!. Preferably someone who has been through the same experience and succeeded in finding meaning and fulfilment!. Ultimately all who find fulfilment and meaning find them within themselves!. It may be attributed to an indwelling god or simply to finding ones true self!.

I hope this meagre offering helps!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

*** I got this from one of the answers from Y! Answers!.!.!."Focus on what or who you want!. You need to BELIEVE that you have them already, then just let the universe the universe take action!."

At times, I feel like this as well !.!.!. and I often turn my thoughts to God for comfort!. I'm not terrible religious or anything, but when I'm depressed I'm more attracted to \ entranced by spiritual things!.

Have you ever read "The Imitation of Christ" by Thomas a Kempis!? It's one of my favourite books !.!.!. I've never read the Bible through even once, but I've read this 12-15 times!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
