[quote=Anonymous]OP, focus on meaning, not happiness. My view: we are put here on earth to make the world a little better. There are many ways to do that: through many kinds of work, through volunteering, through being a good parent who brings up children who will themselves make the world better, etc. Ask yourself: are you helping others? Are you making the world better? Finding hobbies or taking anti-depressants are well and good but neither will help with that. Take in foster kids. Or foster animals. Or teach adult literacy classes, or become an advocate for the homeless, or build trails in national parks. Do things that bring you into contact with other people who care about the world, that leave you feeling like you made a difference. That's usually the best cure.[/quote]
