Hi guys! I'm having a little difficulty in understanding life these days. People around love and care for me. I have all the support and guide from every source I know I have but it's like there is something I don't know that makes me cry. I feel sad or lonely. It's like something is missing. I don't know if I have enough of what I need. I have a loving family and lover. And so are the friends and colleagues I am always around. Guys. Give me a hand here in understanding what else have I forgotten why I don't feel good. Thanks!

I think you miss one in your life. That is God. Because you said your heart seem have emptiness...Find God, and fill your life

Thanks for reminding me that missing piece. I do call out to God once in a while but not really devoted or committed. I will try to search for ways I will be closer to the being. Thanks for responding. May God be with you =)

I think you need more research about the truth that bible say, my friend. Perhaps, that is missing with you. Because you are not happy with the life you had today even do you have everything in life...

It could simply be depression. Have you talked with a doctor about this? I suffer from Major Depressive Disorder and can't work because of it. I'm on Disability. Medication barely works for me which is frustrating. Another thing I have in my life that helps a great deal is God. I'm a born again Christian and many years ago I accepted Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Saviour. I pray and talk with Him and it really does help. He has answered many of my prayers and I'm so thankful for what He has done for me thus far. Talk with God and then talk with a good therapist and/or psychiatrist for any medications that you may need. I pray for all the best for you, my friend. Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

Oh my! Thanks so much for sharing your opinion. Do you think it would really lead there? Though you made me worry in another way you awakened me that these might be the truth. I will search for more info's and ask some friends on what is really happening. HOnestly going to a therapist or even just seeing or consulting a doctor for something is very hard to do. I don't like meeting them because it means there is an illness that over the counter medicines cannot cure. hehehe. I need to be closer to God. I am a Christian too. Thanks again =)

Don't get too worried, sweetie! Many people see therapists just because they have a need to talk. Not everyone who sees a therapist takes medication. We all need to talk and it's no big deal. Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

Hi leateagee! It seems to me that you are forgetting the spiritual dimension. Maybe you have a hunger for spiritual things that is not being satisfied. Maybe you have questions like; what is life all about? Why are we here? May I recommend that you read the world's all-time best seller, the Bible. Psalm 1:1-3 (Young's Literal Translation) 1 O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat; 2 But -- in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night: 3 And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

hiiii leateagee I have doubt that might be depression.Talk to your doctor and see what he is saying.Homeopathy medicine do have great remedies for fear and anxiety.But try to talk with your family doctor first.See what he is saying. There might be something hidden deep inside you which is making you insecure and you dont know.

I agree with you. Living simply, is real life. I don't want to be what others have or have more than what they have. Having lots of money is complicated. Its a lot of headache. hehehe. Thanks bingchen for responding. Having all these ideas and opinions from different walks of life is helping me understand life in different ways as people experiences it. Thanks!

Hi Leateagee. Sometimes i have this fealing to. Even in times when i had it all i just didn't felt ok. And than i realised that i felt like this because what i had wasn't exacly what i whant. and then i started to make some changes in my life...take it in my own hands, and started to feel better. I also feel this way when i remember some people that i loved, and thought that i forgot about, but i didn't. Just try to find some activity to keep your mind busy, and it will pass.

I don't know about you; but whenever I feel restless, listless and bored, feeling no purpose in life, I just hibernate for awhile. I say a little prayer too, so that the feeling won't last and that I won't be sucked into it forever. I strive to be a happy person and feeling positive, so I make it a point to just suck it all in. Not good for too much, but well, I'm a vacuum, so yeah, LOL. Try to take up a hobby or something which you can participate actively and so hopefully your sense of boredom won't come back easily..

[b]Its nothing, when you are around with friends, you are more happy, if you are lonely, you are sad and feel like crying.. it is because, you don't want to be alone and you longing to be around with your friends always.. you hate loneliness.. thats it.. But, try to be lonely... if not practise to be in lonely.. because, no one will be with you all the time..[/b]
