I get this feeling every once in a while.I feel like i'm meant to do something great. I looked it up once and I found that a lot of other people had the same feeling. I made all my dreams come true I traveled to the Bahamas, bought a ukulele,I even started a band one time (ended horribly), i'm engaged to a wealthy (and majorly sexy) doctor that I seriously just love, and my wedding day is coming up soon. I have everything that I could ever possibly want yet it feels like I have nothing it feels like everything I do is insignificant it feels like there's something that needs to be done. Even if I owned everything in the world I'd still feel like I have nothing even I was was the richest woman on earth i'd still feel so... so poor.I've felt this way since I was a child. I've even gotten therapy hoping to get rid of this feeling. I feel like i'm waiting for something and I just don't know what it is. I'm one of those people who like to observe others from afar I like to watch humans interact for some reason it seems so unreal, the way they laugh, the way they smile, the way they frown, the way they cry, and even the way they get hurt it just seems so unreal. Sometimes I feel like I wasn't born in the right world, and it just frustrates me because I feel like I need to do something like there's somewhere important I need to be like I need to drop everything i'm doing and just be there. Sometimes I can't tell how I feel my emotions get all jumbled up and then I get depressed and lay in my bed all day, and then the feeling passes and I go back to being the same happy girl I always am. People walk around like zombies I mean don't they understand the society we live in? Our lives aren't perfect NO ONE and I mean NO ONE has a perfect life we walk happy with our 9-5 jobs doing the same thing OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN sure I could travel to some relaxing island every now and then to do something different or I could jump out of plane with a parachute on my back, but I feel as if there's something out there like there's something I need to be doing, but all I can do is wait.Has anyone else had this feeling? And Thanks for reading <3 :D

    That feeling wears off in your 30's.

    I've had the some of the same feelings all my life. And found out my career success and making a bunch of money didn't satisfy the feeling I have done what I was supposed to do. A few years ago, I started down another path, starting with getting a degree in a very different area, transistioning into another career area (making a lot less money), taking more time off and starting to write a book. I'm so much happier and more relaxed now. This feels closer to the path I am supposed to be on. Best wishes to you as you figure it out.

      LMAO I write down my feelings and then crappy people like you comment. I didn't post this to brag or boast I wrote it because I decided to see if there were any other people who felt the same way. And I honestly don't even know if its possible to make the world better and I also don't know why i'm responding to a sh*t head like you but I just am. Soooooo ummmm yeah :)

    This thing you are waiting for. this feeling you have? Like nothing is good enough even if you had everything. I know exactly what it is. Because i had it myself.

    But the feeling you are truly looking for and i quote.
    "is the pain of loss"

    To see and experience everything you built crumble down at your feet, to see people die you love, lose everything and maybe even die yourself and survive someone else would die from.

    This empty void your feeling "this nothing good enough?" Will be gone forever, because only then you will truly value what you have in life. You will enjoy the most "insignificant" things in life. The smallest things people leave behind, family and friends.

    You have no idea truly, my suggestion is not to make this happen to yourself because nobody wants to experience the pain of loss. But i do suggest to research this, watch people's life stories people that survived things and lost things. See yourself in that, and understand that, live in those moments like it was your own. There is also a movie called Death sentence give it a shot trust me.

    Then even for a brief moment your feelings will be gone.

    I hear what you're saying. I think about some of the same things. I feel like I should be doing something completely different than what I'm really doing. Our lives are so short and we only have so much time to do all the things we want to. The reality is we will never be able to do ALL these things if we continue to live within "the system."

    The way I see it though, when it's all said and done it doesn't matter what you stand for, how many people you know, what your experiences have been, etc. The only thing that matters is what you have created and built.

    Unless I can do something drastically that will change the world for the better in future generations, my life is completely pointless and worthless. Up to this point, I am just another worthless pawn drawn only to be washed away and I don't know if I'll ever be anything more.

      I don't mean to sound cynical because i'm not a cynical person, but sometimes I feel (and its not just a feeling) that the moment I was born was the moment my life was decided for me. We work go home and repeat. And someone (probably the government or whoever) decided that was how I was going to live out my life, but then again I know I have options I could get a job traveling around the world or do something fun and when I think about it life isn't all that bad because we all have each other. That's what I meant by zombies because people walk around just fine with that life. The Earth is temporary, and so are we sometimes I think people don't get that or maybe they do but...yeah....

        I think I feel the same way. My family are the opposite to me - they're dull and unambitious and it drives me crazy. How can they be happy with their robotic lives, working and eating and sleeping like clones? I want something more than that. I too want to travel
