I am sorry you are having a rough time, but you are not alone. We suffer in some way but we need to keep searching for what motivates us so that we overcome our hardships and go on. Life is so hard on some people, I can understand, but we have a purpose in this life........

My life has been hell. I wish I knew what that purpose is.

I don’t know about the purpose but I am so sorry you are suffering right now Triple hugs at support

Thank you nancy6464

I'm sorry you're feeling so badly, Hon. I have felt this way many times in my life. But all of us have a purpose. You're young, and have your life in front of you to find meaning to it. Psalm 27 lifted my spirits this morning, maybe it will lift yours. Prayers.

Thank you shadowlady

I don't know if you have a purpose or not.

All I can say is that my kids don't. I love them, but it's certainly not their purpose to be either loved by me or to love me.

Heck, I'm atheist, so if there's an afterlife or heaven...we're definitely not going.

So here is where we are. Some days we make the most of it. Some days (most days) we definitely do not.

That's good enough.


I'm very, very sorry that you're alone. I lived alone for most of my life. Much of that in great pain. It hurts. It's HARD.

I've come to believe that my life wasn't less than anyone else's, nor are my children's lives. We're all a single life...all the same.

That's just my two cents. I wish you all the peace that the world has to offer, Patti

You have a purpose. You were create by God for God. Even though you may not know what your "purpose" is at the moment, if you keep pressing in and pressing on, He will show you. Blessings<3

Thank y’all!

This is a question that many people ask themselves, and others. I do as well. We all want to feel we're here for a reason. Sometimes there just isn't an easy answer. We have to find some purpose. What do you like to do. What give you enjoyment. My own problem is that I know what gives me enjoyment, but I don't know how to translate it into employment.
Please hang in there. make a list of the things you enjoy doing. I like to go out into nature and museums. I can do both in DC.

At BabyGirl98 sometimes our purpose is to voice what we have lived thru. So that we by our testimony will provide courage to other that may be going thru what we have already dealt with. Sometime we just need to know someone else has gone or is dealing with the same things we are dealing with. We as humans are social. We do better as a team or a part of something. We were not designed to be alone and deal with our issues alone. Sometime all we need to know that we are not alone and others have experienced what we are living thru. Your purpose is a great and wonderful thing. Sometimes is simple as just being a voice or a friendly ear. That is my opinion. Prayers your way. Smile it looks beautiful on you!!!! Send hugs your way.

Thank y’all!

I agree with what several others posted, regarding the fact we all have purpose here on this earth. The challenge for each of us is to discover what the exact purpose(s) are-but you are not a mistake. You are uniquely created to be you. I can’t be you. Your neighbor can’t be you. I can’t do what you can, because I haven’t lived your story and don’t have your unique gifts and talents. I checked your profile and just want to say that I’m so sorry you’ve (seemingly) been wronged by your stepbrother. (Have you gotten good counseling for it?) What was done isn’t your identity! Not at all! You were made for something special that is totally you! I’d love to know what you do well, what you love to do, and what you’re passionate about. If you can answer some of those questions, you’re on your way to discovering your purpose! So, what do you love to do? What issues stir your heart to want to do something? Oh, you’ve got purpose alright! Do some honest soul searching about what you’d do if you knew you couldn’t fail! A step in the right direction!
