If all you had was answers, nothing would be interesting. Yeah it sucks to not know what to think or what you are going to do next in your life, but part of the sheer excitement is just jumping off and taking the plunge, so to speak.

Part of being alive, I think, is almost like being skinned. Everything you feel is hyper-sensitized, and big impacts make everything else seem puny. But without that sometimes painful reaction, all you are is stoic, and that's one step away from a rock.

There are worse things in the world than being disorganized. If for one thing one of them is being ultra-organized. You just have to find your comfort level, accept that you won't ever be perfect (or rather, what you this is) and run from there.

You mentioned 'life. intentionally' in your last post. That doesn't mean you are living your life to a script, but rather you have a purpose. You need principles that guide what you do and who you are. That doesn't mean you'll never be confused, or upset, and it sure doesn't mean that you won't get hurt or that you will get everything you want. But it means that in the end you know your life meant something.
