    I'm 63. My husband and I raised our son and daughter to think for themselves and make their own life choices. If they want advice, we are available. Otherwise they can live and learn. I encourage anyone out there who is doing something for their parents to reexamine that. Best wishes to all of you.

    I asked myself this right after highschool while being pressured to move out or go to college. Which told me I either need to work my way up the ladder at the place i work so i can save up and leave. Or take a bunch of classes and keep jumping thru hoops for my parents cuz they pay the bills. So then i asked myself this question. And my friend came to me and offered a solution. He told me he was looking into gardening. And i thought. Oh shit. Thats something I can do. Thats a craft I can grow up doing. He came to me after i asked the universe for an answer. So the universe answered my question. And with this settling of my emotions knowing i can begin learning a peaceful craft such as gardening. I found the energy to both work and attend university for my degree. Its not exactly fun getting my gen ed's. But now I have a destination. When I told the people around me I was going to settle for gardening. At first they assumed i was a pothead. I didnt reply to their assumptions. I just listened to who believed in me and who did not. Now I know who cares for me as a person. And who was just doing some checks/balances through me. At first it hurts letting go of the system of thinking I and many others are born into. But if you endure the pain. The pain turns to emptiness. And then I realize that the emptiness wasnt real. It was the after effects of coming out of the matrix. And stepping into the real world and realizing that the pain I was taught to live with MOST people havent even realized. And so they live their whole lives serving ideologies and systems. The light never quite coming on in that thick skull of theirs. And then I zoom out and see like 98% of the world population is sucked up into these things. And I am so thankful every single day that my friend came up and offered me that solution. I do not have alot of things - Maybe I will gain more later in life with my craft. But I have arrived.

    I’m set to graduate in a few months, and all the advice I’m getting is to immediately find a job when all I really want to do right now is travel. I’m super conflicted because yes, funds are very tight, and I do want to be secure with a new job....but I just feel like 10 more years will go by and I’ll still not have been able to do what matters most.

    • @saravergaripakito333
      @saravergaripakito333 4 роки тому +36

      Oohh I feel the same. But recently I have decide to take some months for travel alone, sleep looking at the stars only with few money for food. When I will be happy I will return home and work hard for get money for travel in other places and so for a long time skipping all dutys society imposts us. I want to be happy, see the beauty in the world and help people see those with my art.
      Good luck, I really hope you will find a solution

    Im a Music producer, im 18 And everybody Who listened to my music told me im talented. (I do not think that im just obsessed with music) Im in the high school and i feel like i cant do what i want to do, i cant dedicate all my time and i cant spend it on what i love. Often i do not go to school for music production and everytime my parents are worried for that. I feel like in prison and like i must do something like drop out school but in the otherside this will disappoint my parents. This is such a pian. Peace from italy.

    I'm stuck with this quest in what the world needs of me.. and what it demands of me right now.. 4 years later and I'm no where near an answer. people around me work themselves up some way or the other while I'm stuck.

    • @BK-mk3vi
      @BK-mk3vi 4 роки тому +61

      That's ok. It wouldn't be much of a quest if you had all the answers. I, and many others are in the same boat as you, everyday. I like that you used a quest analogy, i think of life in a similar manner. You must ask yourself, *if life is a quest, then what is it that I am fighting for?* Similarly, what does humanity need most in your opinion? What do you believe is worth fighting for, dedicating your life to pursuing, and will make you feel like you have accomplished something. For example myself, i just graduated from Uni thinking i was gonna go to law school, nope, i realized its not for me. I had no real goal in mind before, i just thought it was a good job and good $$$. That's not what your life should be based off of, its not enough to get by on. Now i realized i want to protect people, and their health & well being. So i'm going back to study something in health care, because to me someone's health is worth fighting for. It's a difficult path, lots of studying, exams etc. but that's part of the quest, to make you strong. I highly suggest looking up "the hero's journey" and watch a quick video on it, it will give you a lot of insight, and Elliott Hulse on following your heart. You will figure things out, slowly but surely.

      DevilsMayCry
      The world wants to eat you. Your purpose is to conquer and tame it.
      If you bow to the demands of the world, it will devour you, because that’s all it wants is to eat you like the wild beast it is. If you make the world bow to your demands, you will see life.
      False teachers will tell you to become one with nature, but being one with nature is to die. You were designed to be above it.

    • @joeocasio7227
      @joeocasio7227 4 роки тому +33

      DevilsMayCry we have to get rid of the ego. I was going thru hell and thought I let go of it but I didn’t. It is when you say I or me. You will find a lot of answers with silence. Let go of the past and let go of the future, they are stories that your mind is making you believe. Anything anyone says about yesterday or tomorrow is a story and most likely it happened or will happen differently. We have no control of anything, we need to realize that we are always living in the now with whatever life throws at us. We have control of how we act or react, we need to third person our feelings and see te Lessons that the moment is trying to show you. Everything right now will change so let’s it get stuck in feelings, because we need to continue to live in the now with the environment. Don’t get lost in time, it’s just a human measurement construct to measure from here to then or there. Just focus on how to make right now a little better for yourself and the next moment will be better. Relax, listen to inspiring speeches or soothing sounds and appreciate the moment. You will see the more you forget about everything from yesterday or tomorrow the easier to breathe and think. You will find your motivation in silence, this is all a test 🦋🌻✨✌️ if you have more questions feel free to add my insta- Bfluff_marshall
