We all get to a point in our lives where we need to make life transforming decisions. Where we leave our comfort zones and search for meaning outside our refuge. I have gotten to that point in my life where my mother's arms aren't enough anymore and I yearn to be the one holding, giving and loving.

It is a part of life. We grow to want more and more. It is a cycle that never ends. It hasn't ended for me. As a child, I yearned to be an adult and now that I am in adulthood, I yearn to leave a mark. I want to touch those around me. I don't want to live my life being invisible.

But how do I do that when the answers seem to be under lock and key? Playing hide and seek? Floating somewhere in the stream? How do I become who I want to be when I haven't even discovered who I am?

Insightful musings and great songs to go with them. You will discover who you are eventually, but it takes a while for most of us. You mention a lock and key, well a great way to open the lock is with either education if you can afford it or wisdom through reading if you can't - the internet is the biggest library there ever was so everyone now has a chance to learn and gain wisdom - old and young, rich and poor - you just have to decide what you are passionate about and pursue it.

I had no idea how to go around the boulder that is my mind.

The boulder analogy is a good one.
