What do you truly want in life?

Hi everyone. (40/F)

Im starting a thread and I’m open to comments. I’m not sure how often I’ll post, but I’m going to give it a try.

Today I was asked what I truly want. It was a casual conversation about New Years Eve, but I realized that I can’t answer that question anymore.

I guess I’m feeling a bit lost at the moment. Between 2016 and now everything in my life has changed. I was busy running my business, trying to be the best mom and wife I could, and then my husband had a medical condition that completely changed his personality. Then he decided to cheat and we separated. It wasn’t ideal, but everything worked out the way it needed to.

I got my life together and felt like I did the best I could, but then COVID hit and my job roles changed and the medical delays meant they missed a diagnosis for me that turned into a few surgeries this year.

I don’t feel that I have any right to complain. I’m just not sure where I belong anymore and as a result- I have no idea of where I’m going. I feel like I tried so hard to get things right and be understanding, but I’ve lost myself in the process. Can anyone relate?
