Not many. I’m more about saving the current moment.

You are a historian capturing the moment. Nature man made objects buildings signage maybe people.
Everything is temporary. A flower only has a short moment to bloom. The skyline ever changing. Buildings in the middle of its prime or decay.
Your work will be an archive of documented visual history.
Just facts

My purpose is to help others, I just haven’t figured out in what capacity I’m supposed to do that.

I have SI, too, and self-harm. I also have things in place to help in case it gets too intense. But sometimes that means the hospital, usually with the therapist’s blessing. My purpose in life comes down to getting thru this minute, then this hour, then this day. It’s not inspiring but it’s what i have to do.

No i dont really have a purpose in life. No dreams or goals or hopes either. I just try to ‘do my thing’ in whatever situation i find myself.

All we ever know is that we are conditioned to ‘achieve’ things. To constantly strive to accomplish something.
If we don’t we are seen as a failure, especially in capitalistic terms.
A bigger house, a bigger car, a bigger job, more and more. It is never ending.
Once you get it then you have to strive for more.
When will enough be enough?
To not want, to be still, to not be driven, to not have an instilled purpose then what will we be?
Nothing!
And that is what we are, if we peel back the layers of all our memories and all our conditioning.
That is what I meditate on.
It gives me peace…

What have you tried so far in this respect?
There’s volunteering and there’s paid jobs too.
Healthcare, education, fitness, money management etc. This world needs more altruistic people!
I do help others via the project I am currently a part of. Can’t name it, lest my identity be exposed. It’s not related to this forum, but pertains to digital well-being.

I live for family.
Especially two people: my 24 year old daughter and my husband.
They both need lots of support at this point in their lives.
My other 2 kids are doing well and have lots of people supporting them.
But my 24 year old has no friends and is not dating.
My husband’s friends have all blown him off, and his brother is a mess with poor character, and his relatives are in their 90s and 100s.
So I feel like it’s really important to live in order to be there for them when they’re lonely etc and in need of support.

I like earning money as it provides the means to indulge my interests. I just need enough to be comfortable, I’m not trying to win a competition.

I have a high purpose in life that gives me every reason to go on living and being overjoyed with my life. But the rules of this website are such that I cannot reveal what my purpose is.
