anyone ever felt like this?
Published Jun. 30, 2008
Bones’ “live forever?” post got me going again on something that has been really nagging at the back of my mind for a while. I’m very curious to know if I’m the only one that feels like this from time to time.
When I got back on my feet and started putting my life back together, my family kept bugging me to come back to Texas. I can’t say exactly why, can’t put a specific finger on anything, but I knew, just felt like that would not be the best thing to do. I explained it to my Dad like this “I just feel like this is where I’m suppose to be right now, it feels right”. And so it has been.
But in the last year maybe two years, things are changing. I’m feeling awfully homesick, but I know that is just that I miss my Dad since I only get to see him once a year. I have absolutely no desire to move back to Texas. But I don’t feel “settled” anymore.
It feels like a pull, like there is something else I’m suppose to be doing but I can’t figure out what it is. Nothing “feels right” anymore and I always feel agitated or frustrated. I absolutely positively love my job and even more, the company I work for. I’ve always said they will have to kick me out to get rid of me. But lately, it doesn’t “fit”. I am in no way unhappy at my job. So I just can’t figure it out.
I’m not “tired” and I don’t need a vacation. But whatever this is, is starting to really get to me. The only way I can describe it, is as I stated before, like something is pulling me. But I can’t tell the direction or know what it is I’m suppose to be doing.
I can already hear the sarcasm from some of ya’ll, but I’m serious, has anyone ever felt this way? I just can’t figure it out and I sure wish I could. I’d like some peace!

The difference that I see is that I love the area that I'm from, and there is absolutely nothing negative that would keep me from being happy if living there again, whereas you don't seem all that attached to life in TX.
Have you considered something like volunteering in any spare time, to see if that feels a void or brings deeper meaning to your life?
I'm sorry to hear that you are lacking something important to you... hope the answer comes to you soon!
