How do I make sense of my life?

How do I made sense of my own life?

I overlook what people say to me, what they do for me, and I still question them, or their feelings towards me. I often spend my time, thinking of everything but nothing at the same time. I'm a struggling young adult, still trying to figure out this life. I've been hurt, anxious, verbally abused, homeless, at a young age. Growing up, they tell you to stay young as long as you can. I surrounded myself with people who wanted to anything but that.

In my teen and young adult years, I've been an alcoholic, stepped on, emotional abused, depressed, suicidal, around hard drugs, a whore, and always choosing the wrong people. Yet, I still wouldn't give up any of those experiences because my story is who I am.

      I agree 100%; keep on getting up after falling down. Stay on your journey.

      Courtesy notice: the following includes a reference to a book that contains writings over 2000 years old which are mostly parables about human nature, both vile human nature as well as moral human nature, parables that are meant to teach us to learn and grow, including the teachings of Christ Jesus. No religion required, and better yet: no public displays of devotion required. Some bullies will label this "trolling", so "change the channel" now if of no interest to you.

      1 Thessalonians 5:11

      Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
