Something Missing


Its not everyday that u get up and you feel that even though you have every basic commodity,perhaps even all the luxurious commodities you could have ever wished for and more... (thanks to your folks!),you have great friends,an amazing family,perhaps you are a someone whom people might even envy at times...yet,there is 'Something Missing'...!
Its not like i am a pessimist and i fail to see the brighter side of life or i fail to see the half glass full,its more to do with the purpose of my existence.
There are 'n' number of questions that your mind is cluttered with whenever you're trying to find the starting and ending threads of your life,primary one's being,"What am i doing?","Am i supposed to be doing this??","Is this why i was born?" ,"Is there a purpose for my life?" and so on....
What do you tell yourself when you yourself ask such questions,should you sound over optimistic and tell your self that you are meant to serve yourself and your family or your nation or the world...or should you try and find out the real pupose because there's no fooling your own self or is it ?...as goes the saying.."You lie the loudest when you lie to yourself!"
Perhaps the answer lies not in looking outside,it certainly lies within,if you want it really hard,you will have to sit alone with yourself, and trust me its not that easy!
Because its certainly not others we fear,we fear our ownselves,we fear isolation,we dread having no one to talk to,which is why we try and move as outward as possible,or we try to be engrossed in our work,so as to distract ourselves from us...Strange certainly,but true indeed..!
