Not sure what's happening but this summer I have been so unfocused and depressed. It's hard to get anything accomplished. I'm trying to understand what it all means. My 21 year old son just left home and my 17 year old is so quiet and independent it's like they both left. My business has slowed to a crawl, so money is scarce. I'm a visual artist and a dancer and am questioning if any of that has any merit. I paint or dance for my own enjoyment, but that seems very shallow. I don't feel much satisfaction out of it. I question if I'm even that good. In the world of artists and dancers there is a lot of competition and criticism. Sometimes it takes all the joy out of it. I have worked all my life, supported and raised a family, graduated college, got my CPA, yoga teacher certification, fine arts associate degree and working on my dance teacher certification and it all seems meaningless. Maybe I'm just depressed going through menopause. I don't feel satisified about anything I've accomplished. Anyone with any suggestions how to get jump started? Thanks.
