First know that you definitely have a purpose while you are here, otherwise why would you choose to visit this planet called earth.
Now you only have to find your calling in life. Calling is what you are called to do as a soul, as it gives us most joy while doing it. Once you find that , figure out how to turn it into a career, money and success in life will follow automatically when you come back home each night feeling fulfilled knowing that you have lived this day to the best of your capability.

You are a human first of all and you have time to live. So that s the best thing everyone has . Do not think like that . You are in a depression . It does not matter you have a job or children . Rich and famous people may feel like you . Like yourself and life keep on living . Try to find different activities that will make you happy.

Love somebody and you will have a purpose. Adopt a dog if you are afraid of a child. Or help to save the world. Protect nature. Look around you. Make something meaningful.

You might want to start by finding a new job that you would enjoy more. Also, look around for volunteering. There are literally thousands of different charities that require people to volunteer for them. Not only does it help those you are volunteering for, it will help you feel that you are doing good. Cub Scouts are great if you want to be around children - or Brownies/ Girl Guides. Lots of homes with older people need people just to go in and visit with them because they are lonely.
You have much to offer - please share yourself :)

The trick is to try out new hobbies while you look for a purpose.
Ones that get you outside and meeting people - who meet other people - who give you contacts and information.
Over the years I have tried:
Darts - club
Fencing
Judo
Photography - club
Motorcycle
just to mention a few - meet interesting people who do other interesting stuff. I still have a way to go but I am having fun doing it.

Join up as a volunteer in some organization that works helping people. You would be surprised how many people in your situation are doing the same thing and quess what, some people actually meet someone that may be looking for the same thing or are in the same situation. Good luck.

I think it is never too late to have them in your life. Just the right time is what you're waiting for. In the meantime, devout yourself towards God. Read the bible on your free time, help out charities especially involving kids. Think of the life you may have in the after-life. I think basically people try to do good things for the hope of salvation and not be thrown out in the eternal lake of fire. Just for the thoughts.

Start doing charity work. You'll be amazed how quickly you find you have a purpose after all.
Also, read some books on how to make a living doing what you truly love. :-)

Embark on a journey to find one.
The journey is just as important as the destination.
The journey of 1000 miles starts with one step.
Good luck
