There has got to be more.

 

Okay, so I'm back on Tools For Life. I was on several years ago, but the timing was not right. I am here now because I am ready for change and finally willing to admit I can't do it alone. I am tired of being happy for short amounts of time, only to sink back into a feeling of "There has got to be more than this." I have this empty feeling  inside of me that is telling me I am not doing what I am suppose to be doing in life. Problem, or rather the opportunity here is to find out what my purpose here in life is. Is there a purpose or do we just kind of do what we do and hope that it works out? Am I meant for more? Or is it just that I could do more if I wanted. It doesn't feel that way. I feel like I'm being pushed towards something, and the more time that goes by the more I'm feeling pushed. I just don't know what I am being pushed towards. I know I will never be satisfied with an ordinary life. I know that routines often leave me feeling stifled and restless. My hope here is that I can find answers and direction. Focus and the ability to believe in myself. And Not to feel ashamed for wanting more and hoping that I was meant for more.

“Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
