Where do I fit in?
The question of the ages.
Asking oneself that question means you are not completely satisfied with what lies ahead in your current timeline.
I used to feel like you, I couldn't find any interest in the mechanized social state of things, I didn't want to "dress up" like a businessman, i
didn't want to be confined in an office space.
I felt ill amongst the crowds, and life made very little sense, I was told by my peers to lighten up, to stop asking so many questions that led me to
nowhere.
But whenever I was hiking in the woods, or atop some mount I felt at peace, the wilderness made sense to me, and I felt the call of my own self trying
to reach me, so I gave in.
I stayed some time in the wilderness and I found what I was looking for, or, it found me, its irrelevant now.
MAke a plan, finish your school or don't, but make sure to spend some time with yourself, out of your comfort zone, experiencing life in a completely
different techno social environment, sometimes change comes from within, sometimes it comes from the outside.
As EyeOpenDoors wisely has pointed out, break your mold, and then with the pieces build a new you.
MAny people feel the call, but never do something about it, and that is the recipe for an unfulfilled life.
Take the time, maybe later you will be tied to relationships, jobs, or social pressures, and the longing will stay in your heart.
Its never late.
