I was just wondering how many of you ladies, and gents are single with no children........At 49 I feel like I don't have any direction.

Just can't seem to get with the program here! I have been divorced now about 7 yrs and just cannot find a place in my heart to live and be happy!

I have been praying for direction and focus because I feel like I am always living for the "basic dream" A place where I will fit in and be happy. I tend to dream of better places, and a better life, and not be content with what I have......Why is this? So many people out there that are sooooo worse off than me, and suffering!

Do I need a spouse, and children to give me direction? No, I shouldn't need anything more than God in my life, so why do I feel so lost, and alone......and that my life is being wasted away...? hhhhmmm

Maybe someone/somebody out there knows how this feels! And can concur or relate. I have even read "purpose driven life" !

Thank you for letting me join CF this seems like a wonderfu community

Welcome to CF and to the Fab 40's, Silly. I kinda know how you feel about being lost. I have been married and divorced twice. I do have children, two of them, but they are now grown, so, I feel the purpose in my life has changed, and I haven't quite figured it out yet, either!
