What am I doing with my life? What is my life purpose? All these people in the past, by the time they were eighteen years old, had done all these incredible things. What have I done? What have I accomplished? I've written a screenplay. Not a very good one, but its a start. I'm writing another one right now. I'm sure I've influenced a lot of people that I don't even know about. I'm sure I've changed the world is some ways that I have no idea about. But...still. Is there anything else? Have I left something that will survive after I'm dead. After no one remembers me. Will anyone remember me? I don't know. I think that the main focus of my life should be spiritual. Should be worshipping God in everything that I do, following Jesus, imitating Jesus. But, I feel like Jesus would want me to do more than that. I think I have a specific purpose that only I can accomplish. Something maybe nobody knows about yet except God. I sure don't know about it yet. I wish God would tell me. Let me know. Right now, my dream job is to be a film director. I think I would be really happy doing that. I think I would enjoy doing that for free. Not just a director, maybe a writer too. I think I have some writing ability. I really am willing to do anything in Hollywood just to get started. I think moving to California would be a good start. But, right now I have to go to college and try to learn something. I guess the best thing is to focus on my career in college and don't get caught up in all the things that don't matter. All the petty ridiculous nonsense that comes with college. The booze, the parties, the meaningless distractions that 90% of the world gets caught up in. Come to think about it, I don't want my life to be like that. I want to be different. I don't want my life to follow the mold of my parents' life. I don't want to have the typical timeline. You graduate college, get a job, maybe move somewhere, hate your job, get married, have kids, grow old together, kids grow up, they go to college and the whole thing repeats itself. Why does everyone do that? I feel like everyone is mainly bored out there. Bored in their everyday life. I think fear has a lot to do with that. People are afraid to be different, to step out of line, to shout, to disagree, to test the limits of the system. It's because they watched their parents do the same thing. And the whole merry go round of life just keeps turning. Nothing new under the sun. Was Solomon right?
