Is it a life you really want?

Recently I have been thinking about my life and my future. I start to be confused about what I have been pursuing. Is it a life I really want? What do I really want? I kinda lose my bearings in my life, geting struck in this confusion. But I'm not expecting you to help me, because this is a internal problem and I can turn to no one but myself to drag me out. I post it because I think everyone should think about it seriously. As far as I know, there are many people around me who actually don't know what they really want. They either follow their parents' will, or follow the herds. It's pretty sad. I hope you will think over it.

I think I thought it over and over again when I was 20. So, I mean it, I wasted so much time of my life to think this so hard and wanted an answer of that. Over this ten years, I was suffering in my own world, thinking that no one would understand me. A very close relative of mine was turning 45 this year and suddenly he is now thinking seriously about life and what's the meaning of being human, he is suffering now and quited his high-salary job, being desperately depressed. I don't think I can help him much on that, though I think I got through all this hard times. I would only tell people, as a human being, you have to do your best. If thinking too much on "why", then you probably would waste your time without answer. Life is short but it can be beautiful if you work hard, play hard love people and care others, otherwise, it would be too late you got the answer one day but you FINALLY understand and can't deny that you STILL have to work hard, play hard, love people and care others.

yup, as a human our finale goal is graveyard... sigh, pursuing our sea of greed and ideal future is a never ending process. our goal is constantly changing, as when we achieve our goal-there must be other new target... well, i keep struggle in the day, evaluating in the evening and planning other day before go to bed. i'm only planning a long term target once a year. yup night december 31, 0000.
