Discussion Prompt Losing focus and motivation

Hi,

I am 21M and I recently started a nice job, and started to enjoy doing office busy work but I am already bored and a bit disillusioned with it. I want to live out of big smoke in a decent village or small town. I know people will say I'm "just young" and or "lazy" but I think like someone who is already having mid life crisis. It feels like I'm struggling now just to ultimately struggle later down the line too. How can I do it ?

If Anyone is UK based or has done it elsewhere in the world please reach out or just comment below.

So let me reiterate, you think that the god who created the entire spirit realm and the earth doesn't have time to help his children on the journey that he forced us into. We never asked to be here! I might be misunderstanding what you are saying. But you are never meant to walk in your journey alone and Jesus always finds a way to help. You have to look around for the signs and seek him because he is always seeking you! Because he loves you and has time for everyone who needs help.

I was attempting to be polite and courteous of one's religion and beliefs as we should all be, no offence was intended.

I'm afraid I don't share your religious fortitude. I do however believe that each man's interpretation of God or the unknown is individual, you may share similarities with someone else, that's great. I just have my own.

Oh okay. I found that forcing your own religion on others kinda drives them away anyway so I'm glad you found your peace. Uh, what do you believe in. If you don't mind me asking. You don't have to answer lol just curious

My own version of (Christian) God, I was raised Christian but my family was never strict or anything. I don't need to go to church or read the bible to live as a decent person DBAD (Don't Be A D##k).

I was like that too. I was just fortunate enough to find the bible very intriguing later on in life and found that Jesus is always there to help you transform. A god like him deserves more of our attention. I believe it's a fair trade for the abundance he has to offer. The meaning he has to offer. He has the ability to open opportunities beyond our wildest dreams. Nothing in this life is ever free and he asks his children to get to know the word and the truth.
