Historically, this is the role religion played. I'm not saying "go to church" (or mosque or temple or whatever it is you want to go to)... But sometimes we get a little smug looking at the past. There's thousands of years of culture built up you can avail yourself of.
- lcall 4y agoI learned for myself that God is real, and it matters for our daily lives. It helps to know that this life (what we see) is not the end, nor the beginning. Honesty and the Golden Rule (treating others the way oneself would want to be treated, with wisdom) go a long way. For greater satisfaction, a focus on learning to serve others makes a huge difference (see, for example, http://justserve.org http://justserve.org for volunteer opportunities in your locale, if available there). Knowing what you need to know, and having purpose in life makes all the difference at being able to balance things. Incredibly helpful to me on a daily basis -- peace, hope, and all the good feelings, ongoing, even amid very hard (growing & learning, I believe) experiences. More at my web site, in profile, and questions welcome. (Nothing for sale.) ps: the things you say, caring about your family, learning skills and supporting self and/or others with honest labor, sound noble and good, and you can pat yourself on the back for it. Finding balance and peace can simply add to that. I.e., keep all the good that you have and see what can be added to it.
