My husband just read my entry and he said that “Life without purpose is no life.” sounds like life isn’t worth living. That’s not what I meant. Drifting through the world without intent or direction is a very unhappy state. As I’ve been going in and out of this state for the last two months, I can tell you from personal experience that humans are not hard-wired that way. If emotions are our barometers, then my emotions are telling me to do something with some meaning NOW.
