#191 Why It Feels Like Something Is Missing From Life

Is something missing from your life? Some undefined hole that simply can’t be filled? Perhaps it a bug of our society.

A structural fault caused by the interplay between goals, technology, geography, values and opulence.

If left unchallenged, these influences can produce a feeling of a lacking something of meaning, connection, identity and purpose.

This podcast begins with a reading of a poem ‘Why’. From there I discuss this feeling of lack, and how to combat it.

I also mention the book ‘Tribe’ by Sebastian Junger, who offers amazing insights, references and anecdotes on finding meaning in the modern world.
