What am I doing with my life? Is everything for money so I can afford technology? Or am I just scared to change? Reading the Signs you’ve stayed too long in your job commentary didn’t help to subdue my growing depression here in C-Ville. I’m still wondering if there is one happy single person here in this village.

Ouch! I resemble those remarks.
I think you can find things that motivate you, but are they really meaningful, or just distractions? As we age alone in this world, what is the point of it all? We end up living someplace we didn’t plan on, wishing we were living a different life… I don’t know that living in the perfect town with the perfect job would make me any happier though. I think it comes down to having friends around, or loved ones. When you’re just sitting in a big house, paying the bills and filling your hours with pointless tedium, you have to wonder why.
Good luck finding meaning in life! I really don’t think there’s any. We just make up reasons, distract ourselves with possessions and mindless tasks or get blinded by emotions and not care that there’s no point. Hopefully it ends up being something positive that keeps us from dwelling on this truth, rather than self-destructive behavior. I wouldn’t mind a good romance or adventure to spice things up. From what I can figure, life seems better than the alternative.
