Your life’s purpose is getting to know and understand emotions, and honestly, people never really get how deep that goes for you. You might be someone who is incredibly emotional, like genuinely emotional in a way that other people don’t really understand, so they just slap stupid labels on you like ‘’crybaby’’, ‘’too sensitive’’, ‘’overly emotional’’, maybe even ‘’hysterical’’ if they’re being dramatic. But none of that is true, and deep down you know it’s not. You just feel things more intensely than others, and that’s literally part of why you’re here. It’s not a flaw, it’s not a weakness, it’s not something you should be embarrassed about; it’s actually the complete opposite. You feel things deeply because you’re meant to figure it all out. You’re meant to figure out what makes you upset and why, what you enjoy in life; what things make you happy in a very genuine way. You’re meant to figure out the things that make you sad or angry, and also the things that make you loving, soft, and understanding. This whole emotional depth thing you have going on isn’t random, it’s a part of your path. It goes hand-in-hand with you getting a real grip on your morality and evolving as a person who actually knows themselves. Like actually knows themselves: how they work, what can be expected from them, and what they need in order to feel secure. You’re meant to become someone who is good at communicating, someone who understands their own needs and boundaries, someone who can say ‘’this hurt me’’ or ‘’this makes me feel safe’’ without second-guessing it. And one of the main ways you get there is through that deep understanding and empathy you naturally have. Not just for others, but for yourself too.

Your life’s purpose is all about becoming your own person, and I don’t mean that in some dramatic ‘’go live in the woods alone and find yourself’’ way where you go to a different country to reinvent yourself. I mean it in the really normal, down-to-earth, everyday moments where you slowly start noticing that you want your life to be yours. You’re supposed to have your own routines, your own decisions, your own space, your own mindset, and your own future that isn’t shaped completely around other people and what they want or expect from you: whether its coming from your family or the opinions on your surroundings. And the way you can actually notice this purpose in your life is by how uncomfortable you get when someone tries to tell you what to do, or how frustrated you get when you feel like your life is getting swallowed by someone else’s plans. Whenever you start thinking stuff like ‘’Okay.. but what do I actually want? Why does that not matter?’’, that’s basically your purpose in this life showing up and making itself known to you. You’re supposed to make choices for yourself; not because someone else thinks it’s good for you, not because it’s the easiest or the safest option, but because it’s something that feels right for you. Do keep in mind that this purpose in particular, always show up in huge moments. It is important that you choose yourself what you want to study if no one gets it, that you get to decide if you do not want something or not and make it known even if it makes your voice shake. It is important that you choose who you want to spend your life with and where you want that to be, what your role in life is going to be. That is all for you to figure out and not for other people to decide.

Your life’s purpose is all about creating connection, and not in the whole ‘’needing to be friends with everyone and seeing the good in everyone’’ kind of way, not at all. I mean every part of connection: the good, the bad, the confusing, the friendships, the enemies, the familial connections; the moments you feel close to people and the moments you feel completely alienated from them. Your purpose isn’t just about being social or being someone who has a lot of people around them. It’s about understanding how connection actually works, how people work, how relationships shift and grow and sometimes fall apart. And you can notice this purpose in your life in the really normal, everyday ways you react to people. Like the way you’ll think about conversations hours later because you’re trying to understand what they meant, or whether you should’ve said something differently. Or how you get affected when someone pulls away, even if you weren’t extremely close to them, or how you feel weirdly responsible for making sure people feel comfortable around you. That’s literally part of it. You’re meant to notice things like that; meant to question things. And it’s not about doing the right thing; it’s about just doing it. You’re supposed to experience a wide range of connections, not just the perfect ones. Sometimes your purpose shows itself when you meet someone and instantly feel safe with them. Other times it shows when you meet someone and feel tension, or even straight-up dislike. And instead of it meaning something is wrong with you, it’s literally part of what you’re meant to figure out: why certain connections feel easy, why some feel heavy, why some feel inspiring, and why some push you into uncomfortable growth.
