You know what I hear far too much?
That our collective problem is a lack of meaning / purpose / connection with others / (enter something else that post-modern Capitalism doesn't encourage here).
If only we didn't do b*******t jobs for ungrateful bosses, and we had supportive connections with our neighbours and family, didn't eat meat or burn carbon, saved a species every week, planted a tree every day... then we would feel fulfilled and happy and not do sad things like binge eat / drink / watch TV series / play computer games / (enter things you wish other people would stop doing here)
Hah!
It takes real character to accept that your life is insignificant, and yet still behave as if you are a worthwhile human being.
Go to work, exercise, eat right, not drink too much, keep yourself and your digs clean and neat, see your friends and relatives, save for the future, and keep yourself entertained and interested in something.
Live right, even if you don't know why.
Allez en avant, et la foi vous viendra, as D'Alembert is supposed to have said.
