Is it a calling

Dear aunt agony,
What do you do, if all your life you have had a feeling that you were born on earth just to do service for the god and find nirvana. But as you start growing up you start to lose touch with this part of yourself.
Is this common?

sumtimes its the other way round

sum people grow up thinking the world belongs to them

then when reach old age, starts to contemplate about afterlife and the creator

Yunhaier SG

Spiritually empty? It's kinda common as people aged.

You can begin to search for what's missing so that you can regain this old part that you have lost? Depending on what you are looking for, you had to find it through your own means. Idea

Cheers

this is called life goals..

as u grow older, ur life goals can shaped by things u see, things pple do to u, etc

and nope, u're not on the verge of ur deathbed for ur aspirations or whatever.

if anything u think is impt to u, pursue it.. except if it is criminal / such.

Human feelings are weak and never constant… So never rely on your feelings .
