personal fulfillment?

what do i want to do that will give me personal fulfillment? that seems to be the overarching question that i need to answer in order to not be so angry. i'm tired of being angry. it's getting really old. i need to stop flipping out for no reason. it's ridiculous. but what is it that i want to do? i have no idea. when i was younger, i had ideas. thoughts and dreams. these days, i look out at my future and i see a void. i have no idea what i want to be. where i want to go. it's just a vast nothing. i have no direction. no inkling of an idea of what i should pursue next. i also just feel very empty. i feel like i don't really have anything that is mine. i have no idea what happened. it seemed like not so long ago, i had gained back a lot that i had lost. but now i seem to be back in the nothing. i have no space that is mine. no physical space. no emotional space. i feel like i keep giving and giving and i'm not getting anything back. i'm running on empty and i don't know how or where to stop to fill up.

hey dude, no need to post this, just reading yr last entry...i dunno. strangely enough it reminded me of that first year i met u. u were dating jez at the time, and living in that house in fruitvale. not soon after had adopted the name connor. i remember we went out to eat alot with ann, and you were dong art projects a bunch. like that art exhibit you did in your house, which i still remember being very cool, and you being excited about starting to do graphic design and fantastic plastic revlution stff...
i also remember the pinata and crab cook off... :)

alot has changed since then, tho it seems like you're dealing with similar issues. my buddy j is rethinking work stuff in his life and getting a career consoler forhis bday. maybe outside support would help
