Is it normal to question your purpose in life and feel completely lost

you want beyond anything in this world to know why and what and who you are and where you fit in and nothing ever seems to make sense. you have no faith in anything, least of all yourself. you feel alone and lost and without direction.

is this normal?

    So normal. This is the reason why I want to travel and see the world, cause then maybe I might find myself.

    In this economy and political climate, perfectly understandable. Hang in there, and reinvent yourself. Try volunteering, and charity work. A great man once said, 'if you loose your life, you will surely find it'.

    I feel that way sometimes... Then I masturbate and all is well.

      Replace masturbate with smoke and that is my answer.

    Many philosophers have claimed thats the most difficult question in the world. However I know my own purpose of life.

    Yes, I think most people go through this at some time (or many times!) in their life. What are your talents? Have you ever been drawn toward something, your interest piqued and wanting to know more? Pursue those things... Try new things, hard as it may be. You will eventually ignite the spark that's within you. You will fit in without trying once you begin to do the things that truly interest you.

    Every person has a purpose. A place. Somewhere where they belong. You just haven't found your passion yet. Find your passion, and you will find people, people just like you, who are looking for other people. Just wait a little longer. You'll see eventually.

    The purpose of life is to convert food into shit by digesting it. Thus, shit is the purpose of life. When you become one with the shit you achieve Nirvana.
