What happens if you choose a path, and get trained in said path, only to feel ineffective in the end? Trained as a Marine, and that is your identity, your purpose, you might say... but then you don't use your training. You don't get to do anything. Self-worth goes right out the window, along with almost everything else. Lack of purpose.
**For example: What if I train for 10 years to become a doctor, and I can't do it for some reason at the end? What would I be worth?**
I am nothing without my rifle... and my rifle is nothing without me
It is applicable to every person, of every path. You assign yourself a purpose and a means by which to achieve that purpose... when that means becomes redundant, so does your purpose; and all that you have identified yourself with.
You lack purpose. You lack identity. You lack self-worth.
a life worth that one shot.
a life worth that one saved life.
a life worth that one born child.
a life worth that one invention.
a life worth that one discovery.
a life...
Are we all just preparing and training for that one thing?
