Anyone else somehow scared to find their purpose in life?
I'm currently working through Dr. K's guide on depression/meditation, and there is this worksheet >!on karma where you have to write a page about what you think is wrong with the world, and!< that might help you find your dharma or duty in life (put the spoiler there just in case).
The thing is, I find myself scared to fill it out. At first I thought I was just afraid the worksheet won't reveal any answers either. I've been trying to find my purpose in life for years now and haven't turned up with anything, so it's hard to believe that an answer might just pop up from doing a worksheet.
But now I'm starting to feel like I'm actually afraid to find my purpose in general. How that works, I'm not sure. Dr. K would probably tell me that it makes complete sense if he read this. But I'm not someone who avoids doing hard things though, and I'm excited to finally build a life that feels worth living. The only thing missing is a direction.
I was wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar and wants to share their perspective on this?
