Let me be who i need to be

I feel like i shouldn't be in today's society, meaning i shouldn't be here worrying about getting my driver's license, or having to deal with things like taxes and working to get a boring job. I feel I should be a warrior, and an explorer. I feel as though i should have power and fight for something just, and have my mind blown by something spectacular and truly riveting. I have learned much about things like space. it no longer excites me to know extraordinary things like how deep and mysterious the ocean is, or how planets could be made entirely of diamond and rotate thousands of times per second. I want something more. Not only do i lust for the thrill of battle, but knowledge of things beyond time and space, beyond our planet and its corrupt governments, BEYOND the topic of other life in the universe. The thing is, sometime i get really emotional in the fact that there is something greater. It may not mean much to outside eyes, but it is solid truth that there is something big out there. Beyond black holes and how they work. Beyond the entire universe and everything in it. I wish for never ending knowledge. but lastly, i fear if i know all, that it may not be everything i need, or that i will be torn down having nothing else to know and strive for. Oh why do double edged swords exist.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    Wow, it's me from the past! Just a heads up, you're going to drive yourself mad searching for never-ending knowledge. Sometimes the more knowledge you have, the more depressing life can be.

    I'm going to say it is a life stage and it will pass.

    You can not know everything as what you knew before has already changed, even little by little your grasp of what you know is turning into something new.

    That you are troubled by the thought of thinking you might ever find yourself troubled by knowing all helps shine light that you did not even think this "far" ahead.

    I say far but really, you can't go far on ever-changing reborn paths. You start new ones, endlessly. So do not worry about knowing it all.

    I am gonna take you seriously and say:
    When I was a child I wanted to be a shaolin kung fu fighter or a samurai and they are just looked great while people today are like shit. But why did I want that? Just because they look super cool. I imagined that before a shaolin became a shaolin he didn't think "ah I wanna be a shaolin cause I will be so cool" they just happen to become through the environment and hard work. Being a shaolin in this age is not only difficult but laughtable The shaolins of today are people who work hard.
    Just food for thought.
