    I am 29. My family has all passed and I feel so alone in this world. I am struggling to figure out what the hell to do with my life. I feel drawn in so many directions and can't seem to decide on anything. I want to do so many things, but I feel like I am searching for the perfect answer where I feel like I will be enough.

    Anyways, in my search I have read a couple of great books recently.

    I read Stoner. Really liked the story and how we followed Stoner throughout his life, the mistakes he made and how he dealt with them.

    I read Man's Search For Meaning. It was a great read, I guess I just haven't found my meaning yet.

    I most recently read Of Human Bondage.

    I really enjoyed this book and it felt eerily similar to my life so far. Difficult childhood with a sense of shame, trying to find "the answer" to life, struggling to adapt to the real world when life comes at you, Carey's dream of traveling the world and doing great things, his realization that love and family are the important things.

    I guess I just want to keep reading books in this same vein in the hopes that I will find the answer. And if not, at least it will be cathartic to read about people in similar situations.
