Is it weird . . . that I don't know what I want in life? I mean, sounds stupid right? I love to code, and I love archery(I also love my girlfriend). I just don't know what I want from life, and I feel like I should know. And I would love to have an adventure like in stories, but sadly the real world isn't like that.

I have school, and weekends. I look forward to weekends, but also not just that, but what I want from life. I have not a clue . . . and I don't think I'll ever know what I want from life . . . .

I am sorry to hear that... I have almost the same problem. Sometimes I just want to have an adventure, be one of my characters... I sometimes have depressions, because I just can 't deal with the real world. I just wish that I could be someone else...
But, we are talking about your problem here. I am sure that everything will be okay soon ;)

I am okay, and I'm not okay. It's just . . . I don't know what I want in life and I feel empty and not empty at the same time. It's weird.
It's not weird to not know what you want. I'm 31 and all I know is that I want to be left alone to find my own happiness.

Sometimes it's not about knowing what you want, but finding it. You love coding and archery, yes? Do you love either of these to pursue them to a point where that is what you do?

Yes I love archery, and I want to start actually working this coming year. But, I'm in search of something else. I mean coding is something I want, but I'm trying to find something, something more meaningful.

It's my opinion, and it's only an opinion, but I think that there's a lot of meaning in almost everything. You could be an Olympic gold medalist at Archery, known the world around for your skill and prowess. You could be a programmer comes out with the next great MMO, bringing joy and entertainment to millions. You could start a dachshund rescue and live a quiet but fulfilling existence saving one sausage life at a time. You could move to Tibet and take up with the monks, achieving enlightenment and Zen.

There's lots of meaning out there.

I understand, I guess I might just have to travel the world to find.
