How the hell am I supposed to figure out what I want to do with my life for the next 10,15 or even 20 yearssssssssss. I want to do everything, but I can't do that when my ass is broke, so this is a message if yall don't know what career or path you want to take, it's okay cause I don't know as well, and we'll figure it out one day, and if not, that's also okay <3

Currently I am finding it rather difficult to find myself in this world and what I want to do. Being 21 and in college really puts a lot of pressure on you when your peers are entering their last year at university. I’ve never known what I want to do, i’ve never had a lifelong dream of becoming something. I never had that feeling. Out of high school I had no idea what to do with my life so i copied another persons life instead of taking my own route. I realized then this is never a good idea you should always be yourself. The issue is I don’t know myself, I don’t know what I want to do with my life. I don’t know what I want to become career wise. I have many lifelong goals and plans for my future like getting married, starting a family, and moving to a beautiful house preferably outside of lakeway it’s just the roadblock of how I’m gonna do all of that. Career and money really puts a lingering constant pressure on me and it is genuinely one of the worst feelings in the world. Seeing your peers grow up and get internships and jobs and opportunities when you have no clue whatsoever what you want to do is rough. I do believe somewhere in my mind that I will randomly find a calling or a passion and turn that into a well paying career. But for now i’m stuck.

just move towards one thing that makes you happy, one go at a time. if it becomes a pattern, think about what it is about the thing that makes you happy. move towards it, one diy, one event, one forum at a time. also know that you can reinvent yourself hundreds of times in this lifetime, so goals are arbitrary. what matters is that you spend most of your days with at least a bit or a lot of joy. oh also remembering that your career ≠ what fulfils you. sometimes we work just to have $$ to do what we really want to do (cook/draw/knit/make music etc). in the end, your life will be made up of many small moments, so just try to enjoy yourself. at least that’s how i do it :)

Younger people (and older people…) feel hopeless about the world and their prospects in it, understandably so. When I was your age I was very much passionate about art and literature but felt the same way as your peers because I felt I had nothing to look forward to and couldn’t see a way for myself. I found my way to order through destruction; I’m still finding my way in the world—this is a process that never ends.
It’s good that this is something you value! Let it guide you. Everyone has a path and many people will get there by meandering, but don’t misconstrue their apparent aimlessness for not caring.

It's not a song; it's an indescribable experience. If heaven were smooth and divine, that's how the song feels. Just floating
