I feel like at least one point in everyone's life, they get lost.  Whether it's physical, (like if your mom abandoned you at the grocery store) or emotional, we all experience a time where we're unsure of where to go.  What path to follow.  Or simply, what to do.  

Getting lost in ourselves mentally I believe is the hardest.  You may feel like you don't know who you are as a person.  In the midst of all the expectations or molds that all the people around you want you to fit into, you might just not truly realize who you are.  You might be unsure of what you're making out of your life at the moment, and try figure out where you want to be in the future.
Sometimes we feel abandoned because we have no one by our side in our state of uncertainty.  Being alone just increases the difficulty in making decisions because we don't have an opinion to build on.  There's no solid base.  It's just you, your mind, and the world, almost waiting for you to make the wrong choice as it may seem.  

Being lost could also be viewed as a war in our minds because we don't know whether to trust ourselves with moving forward.  

In the end, it's not that fun to be lost.  Which is why having a strong faith in God is crucial because when it seems like no one is there, guiding you through your solitary moments in life, God is.  You're never alone xx
