   I have had nearly 50 years of cultural programming telling me that a career defines my purpose. While I don't necessarily believe that, it's difficult to outrun that programming sometimes.

   And since I don't really have a career anymore, days at home are absolutely crushing me. If I'm not in nature, I just feel like I'm drifting.

   I'm counting the days until I hit the road as a nomad, but I still fear the downtime. Any semblance of boredom stirs up the melancholy.

     @audiodude I can understand that eating away at someone! I tend to prefer solitude though, and I'll be on this adventure solo.

     That being said, we're all social creatures to some degree and I think I may need to "forcibly enjoy" some time with friends and family soon.

     @killyourfm I would say it's more the isolation than the lack of career that got to me 20 years ago. But maybe that's not a thing for you when you're talking about nomadic life? Or are you going with someone? I guess I imagine it as a lifestyle where you meet a lot of new people all the time?
