Maybe during school, maybe right at the end, maybe while you're in college, or maybe even while you’re in the workforce, you WILL begin to be hit by the existential crisis of what your purpose is in life.
As someone who has devoted 5 years to ‘finding himself’, doing literally nothing but lie in bed and trying to figure out why I wasn’t feeling the same as I did when I was younger and innocent, I found an answer, again, and again, and again.
I kept finding answers, and all of them were wrong.
It wasn’t until I found a pattern in all of these wrong conclusions and anxiously compared it to my ideal self that I was able to come to the essential conclusion of how to genuinely ‘live life’, and feel the same way that I did back then.
For those of you who are feeling lost, or are luckily craving for something more in life, then this thread is for you.
I’m going to tell you all a story in order to get to the soul of the formula, because surprisingly, this isn’t a logical way of problem solving, it’s an intuitive, natural, and spiritual, approach.
(IMPORTANT NOTE: I personally just use the word spiritual, but I know some people have a bias against the word whether because they’re hard headed atheists who aren’t willing to let go of the fact that it sounds too hipster rather than being openminded and just listening what I have to say for what it truly is. There are also other ways biases form, and the braking away of these associations is actually the first and most essential step towards being able to KNOW what I’m talking about in a normal/natural/pure way, rather than biased way, and ACTUALLY benefit from this.)

There are two stages in a person's life that a person will continuously go back and forth between until the day they die:
1 - 'Living life', also known as following the path that is most obvious to you because your life dictates it.
E.g. Go to high school and earn a living.
…
Assuming that the you now is burdened by knowledge, you can say that when looking back on the earlier years of your life, you were in a state of “ignorance is bliss”. When in this state of ‘ignorance of bliss’, your life would have been or is currently with a sense of clarity/certainty towards what your path is, since it’s just, obvious.
When it comes down to it, it’s obvious in the sense that you needed to go to school, for that was all your life ever was to you.
You had some extent of potential within you, you may have of gotten excited about being the top of your class, anticipated an excursion or holiday, or even hoped for your crush to become your lover.
All of these things were apart of your direct life in someway, totally sensitive to the expereinces you went through, rather than being dissociated, numb, and emotionless.
You had/have this heightened level of emotional bliss, (Even though there are/were definitely short or long-term events in your life that sucked or were maybe even hellish, you as a person can/were naturally in a state of bliss whenever there was a sense of peace, maybe that peace came whenever it was lunch break to have a break from studying, maybe during visual arts class where you didn’t have to try as hard, maybe it was whenever you were with your friends to feel protected, maybe it was only during the weekends because you had no friends to protect you, maybe it was only during the holidays because you didn’t have the pressure to do your homework and got to do whatever you wanted, maybe it was only during excursions because everything in your life feels repetitive - including the holidays -, or maybe you were really lucky and you were always peaceful - so you always had the chance to be blissful during those moments.).
This natural state of bliss being a result of a sense of clarity/certainty because of your ignorance is no mistake. What I mean by this is that back then/now, you engage/d with the world around you, but the reason why you were doing what you were doing didn’t arise as a question, since you were simply going about your life without much thought to it. However, because you were following a particular path regardless, you felt as though some of the things that you were doing were 'needed', whether because of the belief that school was something that was obviously an important fact of reality, or that you didn’t have any particular belief, but inherently just knew that it was something that you needed to go through, considering that your life revolved around it to some extent.
[PS, for those of you who aren’t burdened by whether through the conscious experience of having control over your mind through the natural understanding of these two stages in life, then you can choose whether to continue reading or not since you have that level of self control.
However, for those of you who aren’t burdened by knowledge, but that’s only the case because of chance/accident/luck, then I recommend that you take on this knowledge now, because going through what you have consciously, means that you’ll be saving so much energy and time that you could be putting towards enjoying yourself blissfully instead of an existential crisis that might end up taking your whole life, and probably either a really short one or a pointlessly and painfully long one, just to be freed from your own developed but justified craziness, (Trust me, most people are crazy. Those of you who fit into either stage of life, for they both have elements of purity, are the only truly normal people. As for those of you who are striving to be your ideal self, trust me, your ideal is probably the person that they are because their purity, no matter how innocent or lack there of they have, is the key difference between them and the rest who attempt to do what they do.).]
