50 more years. What to do?

Based on the average expectancy of people in Canada, I have around 50 more years of my life left. I am not sure what to do in my life with for all that time. I haven't found anywhere where I really feel that belong to or enjoy being, or a career, and almost everyone in my life left, so I am not living life to the fullest. I really want to live a stable life that I feel that I was meant to live where I am fulfilled and have a purpose. I would like to live where I enjoy living, and have people around who I love platonically and they love me too. 50 more years is too long to be around... any ideas of what to do? What do you do with your life?

Life happens regardless of what we plan... so many people think at a young age they should know what to do and where to live etc. The reality is life is a journey and what you want to do now may change in 5-10 years, let alone 50 years.    Many people do not know what they want to do etc... some think they do go to school and then find out they hate it .... i think people should try things out then deciding if they can see themselves doing it long term.
