I'm 19 and in that "Whats next?" stage. I've been out of highschool for a couple years and i've just been working. I've got lots of ideas of what i want to do but i'm also one of those people who LIKES a lot of things but isn't passionate about one specific thing. I would like to go to school again eventually but i want a good reason to go, not just because i feel i need to you know? I know lots of you have been in the situation and most of the time i'm ok with it because i know that God knows His plan for me, but sometimes its good to hear some encouragement from other people who have gone through the same thing. Just interested in hearing other people goals or things that they've done in their life. I like adventure and would way rather go out and DO something than sit in a class for 3 hours a day.

You sound like my sister! She says that she feels like she has just sort of floated through life moving from one thing to the next. Sometimes she is envious because I plugged away at my degree and have a job that I love. She chose not to finish school and sometimes feels like she is moving aimlessly.
All in all she is happy with her choices. She has done real estate, she worked for a while as a secretary and she has taken some classes towards being a teacher. Currently she is a stay at home mom. For the most part she feels that she is doing what is best for HER and it does not matter that other people think that she should go to college. She does not want to work right now; she wants to be with her children. As long as you are living a healthy lifestyle and are content with what you are doing... then it is ok. She does not regret her life. She lives in the moment and does what works best for her. You can do the same thing.
