I Dont Feel Alive

I don’t feel alive he said. What do you do for fun? I asked. Nothing. What do you like to do? He shook his head ‘no”. Who are your friends? I don’t have any, he told me. Who do you play with? No one. What gives you joy? What do you mean? What makes you happy? Nothing. Here is my advice, I tell him. Do everything you can until you find something you LOVE to do. Then do that! He rolls his eyes.
