It seems like wherever my life takes me, I end up in the same place. Empty, worthless, and wanting to disappear for a while. I know this has to be relatively normal, but it seems like something is wrong. Something's missing. Or maybe I just have some growing up to do. Who knows.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I think happiness is much more a function of viewpoint than of objective conditions. Objectively, you, I, and most of the people we know have things quite well. Comparisons to the Burmese seem apt right now. But we're not happy with what we have. Maybe that's because we're sold an impossible dream, maybe it's because we're type-A personalities, or maybe it's something else. Ultimately, though, I think we have to learn how to be happy with whatever we have - more stuff, or the right job or apartment or whatever, is unlikely to really make us that much happier.

stumbled on your blog with a random google search, but i couldnt leave without saying that i totally get what you're saying. Im going through one of those moments right now. I just want to be gone. I just want to walk away from everything because nothing feels like it will fulfill me. Cant seem to find that state of mind that allows me to move beyond all of this. Its frustrating to keep ending up here...but i hope this feeling passes for you soon :)
