You've only "lost in life" upon the nihilistic assumption that this life is all there is. I remember maybe 12 years ago eharmony basically telling me "sorry but we can't help you", rejecting me from their platform after doing the questionnaire. Judging from Bill Bryson's A Short History of Everything, social ineptness is often a necessary condition for exeptional scientists, etc. We badly need a coherent understanding of life. We have the means to propagate it. As for me, if I had a "poke of egress" laying around, I might be getting inert myself, but as those are as scarce as meaningful social connections, I reckon I'll have to see things through. I remember significant personal events occurring in my mid-twenties that radically changed my outlook (perhaps for the better).
