Respectfully I’m not a 20 year old with his whole life ahead of him. I’m 32, beaten-down and tired. People don’t look at me as a fountain of potential anymore.
I rebuilt my life (for the sixth time) in 2020 at the age of 45. My biggest lesson in all of this was to trust God. I was an atheist until 2020 but received a message from God that I needed to relinquish control and allow him to take the wheel. It was a pivotal moment in my life -- and a reminder that we are right where we're supposed to be.
I’m just gonna add that God stepped into my heart after a long period of me half-heartedly participating in that relationship. It came with a thirst to be close to Him like I have never felt.
It seems that God has done this with a lot of people. Never going back , I’m fully embracing whatever the Lord has for me.
I’ve got 20,000 to my name and a pickup truck with my belongings. Where do I even start?
When I was your age, I had a $0 and a Chevy Beretta.
You're already better than me.
I'd go to a temp service and see what local jobs they got just to keep money flowing until you figure your next move.
Learn home repair, learn how to work on your car, learn how to grow food, learn how to barter your work and manage a small business.
These skills are invaluable, and will help you save money as you get older.
More importantly, pray to God to nourish your body and mind, and read the Bible.

I’m 42 - would be interesting to hear that story. I feel I took the wrong fork in life a decade ago and wish I would have taken the other route.

You give me hope, thank you. I’m 44 and I’m starting fresh in a couple of days.
