late twenties and still trying to figure out what to do

[JCVA]

Im in the same boat. I still don't know what is right for me.

I'm 21 and I'm planning to get back to high school which i stopped going to when I was 16 because of SA issues. I think it's never too late to educate one self, so do anything you like while you're still capable.

I can relate to not being able to figure out what to do with your life. I am almost 40 and have no idea what I am supposed to be doing with my life or life in general.
I can't see why we have to figure out what to do with our lives when I still can't find any plausible answer to why we are living in the first place!?

I'm 28 and feeling more and more discouraged every year that I'll never find a purpose for my life. I totally get where you're coming from.

There's always the french foreign legion. Put me together with a bunch of other guys that can't even speak english, teach me how to fight, and send me to war? Sounds like an excellent back up plan to me.

They take anyone under 40, from any country, any language, provided you can adjust to hardcore military life.

Nobody does. Life is not a maths equation with a dedicated answer, which could be why lots of people wonder if they're doing the right thing.

Life is more like pi, where "3" is being born and the ".141592653..." is life, where you will continue to figure it out until you die, and you won't have gotten all the way through...because pi has no end.

Yay for vague metaphors.
