Finding something to do with your life.?

I have been there many times. You sound a lot like me. I would have a goal and then when something happened and my plans got changed. I would just drift for awhile until I found something else to get excited about. It is hard sometimes, especially when people have so many things they want to do. I too got a little depressed and felt like I was just spinning my wheels. Some dreams do come back. I originally wanted to be an architect because I liked to design houses, but then my math grades were very poor in high school and that ended that. I then wanted to do art and actually went to college for it. I only got my ociates Degree, but did not transfer to another school, so I did the best I could to use the degree. I thought about doing photography since I found I had a knack for it, but eventually it did not pan out after several years, so I found a regular job that paid more and I stumbled through life until I found my current job as a custodian. I eventually said enough was enough and went back and finished my degree and graduated from college this past May with a degree in my other love History, which I also have a knack for. Now I am trying to find a job that will fit this degree within the Federal Government. All of this has taken place within a 25 year period. It has taken me this long to get my life back on track, though it is a different track. You will find something and I think you will go back to your writing, which I also have a knack for too. Do not lose hope and eventually a new goal will appear or maybe you will go back to your old goal. Keep the faith.
