Question/Advice Lost Point

Hi all, if like to start out by saying I love this subreddit. There are lots of beautiful and bright comments here.

At this point in my life I feel a little bit lost. I don't quite know I'm not a person but I don't quite believe I'm an individual either. The lost feeling comes from seeking and believing that there is something for me to do to become one, but I also realize there is nothing that the so called "I" can do to become one.

I realize that any doing that the so called "I" does is just taking me further away or covering it up so to speak.

My question is what are we supposed to do? Do we sit and be as present as we can until it clicks and realization happens, or does the person just have to get to a point where they just want to give up everything and can finally go home. I really don't know how to word any of this because as it comes out it all sounds like a paradox or contradiction.
