what do you want out of life?

Question

I am just monthes away from graduating from highschool so of course I have been thinking a lot lately about what I want to do with the rest of my life and while most of my friends are thinking of things like "I want to be a nurse" or "I want to go to hair dresser school" etc, and while I have done that too to a certain degree, I have been thinking a lot more about things like that I want to be happy, not worry about money all the time, and be able to do things that I love. I then made a list of all the things I love to do and that make me happy and I soon started to realize that I could go to university and get a regular 9-5 job like everyone else or I can travel, teach english, volunteer, and do things like WWOOF (free volunteering on organic farms in exchange for food) and I'd be happy doing that.

basically, what I want out of life is to be happy, free to be spontanious, not tied down, active, be able to spend time outside, get to try new things and learn about things that we dont even think about in Canada.

What do you (really) want out of life and what are you doing to make that happen?

Answer 1

I want to have enough not to live from hand to mouth.

I want children to raise to be better people than I am.

I need to see as much of humanity's life on this planet as possible, to understand our strengths and weaknesses. I want to learn everything that I possibly can, in every field.

I want whatever I do to make my living, or as an avocation, to be important to solving our problems or improving humanity's conditions .

I'd like to live long enough to see my children surpass everything I've accomplished.

I'd like most people who know me to respect me, even if they don't particularly like or love me.

I'd like to be a "big enough person" to not hate, even those who might hate me.

When I was 21 I sold all my possessions and moved to Oregon. I joined up with a Christian fellowship up there called Shiloh. I worked hard in tree nurseries, picked apples for Johnny Appleseed in Mallot, Washington, taught Sunday school at the house I lived in, spent two months going to Bible school on the property we had in Dexter, Oregon, lived all over the US and all I had was my sleeping bag and a few articles of clothing. Even though I'd been taken advantage of like so many others in this ministry, I learned a valuable lesson in life and I had fun doing it. I did this for two years. There's nothing wrong with taking some time off but make sure that it's the right thing for you. I don't recommend anyone joining up with some cult and be careful for there are plenty of them out there. I did some research on this one and found out that it was what I wanted to do.



I want to have a closer relationship with Jesus Christ more than anything in this world. Thanks for asking. :)

Answer 4

I want know that I am contributed something to many lives, but to also enjoy things happening that are pleasurable, instead of worrying about how I am going to die all the time.



I also want to live where it is cold, and work in clinical medicine as a doctor.

Answer 5

the problem with being happy is that its only good in short spurts.

your age plays a very large roll in your happiness. your still young, you still have a lot to learn about how the world works, about how life works, about your self. what you want today may not be what you want 10 years from now.

today you just want to make money doing what you love to do, and that is great. but how long till you get bored with that? how long till you want to do something else?

the truth is you have to be happy in your heart, the rest will fall into place.

Answer 6

You neglected 2: LIFE, AND WHY? God made you for the reason that He loves you. You have this type of factor referred to as 'reason', that's why you're specific, one in all a style. That makes you 'certain', certain to not me, who cares approximately me, however certain to the person who created you--God. So, having coming to this end it might do you such a lot well, to seek His will to your existence, and reside it to the pleasant of your potential. Good good fortune.
