For the past few days, I had been trying to answer this question.. Who Am I? What defines me? What are my talents? passions? What is it that I want in life?
And to be honest, I find myself completely lost. I didn't think it'll actually be so difficult to know myself. During this time, trying to answer these questions, I found that all I knew about myself was mostly what other people told me about myself. For e.g., what they thought I liked, from their observations.
There is a saying, "We first make our habits, and then our habits make us". But I found it a bit hard to pen down those habits.
They say, "Be yourself!". I don't know what that is? What is it being myself? We all act and behave as is expected of us, I guess, don't we?
We all try to be different and unique, to stand out, but as I am discovering more and more about myself, and trying to analyse these things closely, I find myself surprised at how similar everyone is.
What is the purpose of life? I read somewhere that "purpose of life is to have a life of purpose". It feels like the time has stopped for me, to find a purposeful and meaningful life. Maybe its time for a change!
Towards a deliberately lived and more fulfilling & satisfying life.
