Is it hard for black people to find hobbies?

Featured Replies

I hope everyone is having an amazing day. I am a 27 year old black woman and I find myself not knowing what I like? What I'm good at? In this day of age, music and hookah is most of my peers favorite thing to do any night of the week. I enjoy it, I am somewhat of a party animal compared to my friends but I can't deny that I have this emptiness once my hangover is over. A sense of boredom. I haven't even watched Netflix because most shows are boring, I don't want to force myself to watch a documentary at 9pm just to say I'm stimulating myself. This is the first message I've ever written and it's FUN but then as a millennial instead of enjoying just writing, I'm already thinking of ways to turn my voice into a podcast. It could be yearning but why can't I just enjoy this. I will say that I grew up pretty active during my childhood but I didn't have much activity during my teenage and young adult life which leaves my wondering what do I like to do? Has anyone ever felt bored with home, work, home, work? How do you find new things? Things you would never think of. 

Read and travel to gain exposure to different  ideas and places. Take a class. Try something new.

 

Still being a relatively young person, there are plenty possibilities. Open your mind and a passion might pop up. 😎 

You may be a seeker or a person who is inquisitive. I used to go to about two to three parties a week, for about a decade. I wanted to see what was out there. So I met a lot of people and had lots of different experiences. At the end I realise I was just looking for my crew or like minded people. If you have two friends or people that get you , your life has been a success. 

 

Can you take a few minutes to create a profile. You can then like other people's post and it is less work for Troy. Also I can like your post.

 

It is hard for people to find meaning and purpose in life. No matter the color or country. Otherwise drugs and entertainment wouldn't be so popular.

@MelovingMe:  Consider that Life has no meaning, and You have no purpose and 🎶row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream🎵.  😬

Life is but a dream.

 

So true
