Do you have your life figured out? Because I don't..

Lately, I would question myself what I did wrong or why is my life like this. There's nothing majorly wrong with my life but I just don't know what makes me truly and selfishly happy anymore.



Back when I was younger I used to say or do what I want and now I feel a tiny bit lost. I used to have the perfect relationship but I didn't know what was good for me so I ruined it. Now I questioned myself sometimes and who I am, my self-esteem is lowered. I don't feel like my true happy self as such.



It's been 5 years since I broke with this guy and I feel like I'm still paying my sins, It's a bit dragged out and too long. Nothing and no one can compare to what I had with him but believe me, I've tried to move on and stop comparing and nothing is working out.



Maybe I'm the problem and I don't think I know what I want, can anyone relate?



What can I do to get out of this funk?

You just have to move forward. Learn how to roll with the punches, and even crawl away if needed.

You will find that all the time spent trying to figure out who you were was for nothing, because now you are someone else. It's just a part of growing and adapting to life. Try to focus on who you can be rather then who you were, and strive for that. Become something new. Try to adventure more and test the waters a bit, then let that mold you into someone better then your former self.

Like I told my friend yesterday when he asked me why I didn't try to work more with the things I love and I answered "cuddling with animals are not going to pay my bills".
My brother works in a veterinary hospital. I told him he has a cool job and im happy for him (make him feel a bit better because he is not very satisfied) and kinda jealous 😋 I ask him to regularly share photos of their cute patients.
