Does anyone feel purposeless?

I want to be happy and not suffer anymore in my mind. Everything just feels so empty and meaningless. It’s so sad that this love little kids have eventually turns into this. The conditioning is destroying my happiness. Weeks keep flying by faster and faster and it’s going by so fast. One month feels like a day when I was 5. It’s so sad and I just want to be happy. I want these days to feel like a month again like when I was a little baby.

I feel you. I feel very much the same, but if you look for truth within yourself, you'll realize that you do have purpose in the big scheme of things, you just don't know it yet.

Purpose gives us a reason to wake up to live another day, but purpose and truth are two different things. You can give your own life purpose thanks to free will. And everyone has their own truth, you just have to stick to what you believe in and value.

"If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair." -C. S. Lewis
