[QUOTE="Xflowi, post: 78828, member: 636"] Do you truly feel happy? I feel like in the modern world people spend so much time chasing meaning, via religion, family, work, hobbies, etc, and it's often never truly enough. But in pre industrial times you just lived, and were happy. Meaning was inherited - through the village, the same people around you your whole life, common values, even just the lack of comparison. Now? I'm not sure if many of us will ever die happy. Purpose and meaning have been killed. [/QUOTE]
