Set some goals for myself.
Identity. The meaning of life. Friends. Peace. Better at being a mom and a wife.
What about you? Has there been a time when you have felt like this? Your plate is bountiful with blessings, but something is missing. No one else can find it for you. Everyone is pretty much doing all they can for you and your life. So what is this internal nag?
Working vs. stay-at-home mom.
Quality vs. quantity of time spent with your kids.
Exercise and die-hard health plans to elongate life vs. enjoying life to the fullest today; screw health because you might not be here tomorrow anyway.
Career vs job.
Money whore vs philanthropic work.
Long-term goals vs today's plan.
As humans, we certainly have enough push and pull fights in our brains before other personal issues arise.
It is like you are damned either way. Maybe it is my cynicism (go figure, the word I got wrong in my regional spelling bee), but I think our world has set us up wrongly.
Or ...you can choose to just be a good person and be unselfish as your day goes on. I guess that is it: Live one day at a time and hope it goes well.
