I donāt really feel human. I donāt know how to describe it. I feel like Iām living life wrong. Not that I feel like thereās a specific way you should live life, but I feel like Iām missing something fundamental. It feels like Iām an alien living in a human body. Itās like I donāt know who I am. Like, am I just a collection of qualities? A mixture of things I do or donāt like? What makes someone human? What makes someoneās life worth living? I always feel like Iām heading off to check off the next item on my list. Like, I amount to little more than my experiences or my accomplishments. When I finish something, no matter how great or small, my response seems to be, āOkay, but why did I do that? What did I or anyone else get from that?ā It feels like Iām on an unending loop of finding and accomplishing side quests in this big game of Life, without ever really doing anything worthwhile. But then I wonder, is anything even worthwhile? In the grand scheme of things, what gives anything its worth? Even if you subscribe to a religion, what is it that gives Godās plan worth? Just the fact that itās Godās? I mean, does that mean that God doesnāt feel this way? As if Heās somewhat upset or disappointed that thereās no greater purpose out there than just existing? I get that āHis ways are higher than our waysā or whatever, but it really makes me wonder how He could ever feel fulfilled if He can just do anything He wants at any time with no adversity whatsoever. I think thatās part of it. My feeling of purposelessness. How do you justify existing when you feel like you serve no purpose. Is it possible for me to just be satisfied with being alive? Sometimes I wonder.
