Belonging and feeling valued by others.
Also having good relationships. A community.
To have a purpose.
What they are called to do, whether it is being a mother or helping kids in poverty. It doesn't have to be something big or life-changing, just has to help others. Pursuing your passion, and focus on one goal.
Storytelling.
Being able to tell your testimony and learn about yourself and others.
Transcendence.
Being in the moment. being in awe, when you feel connected to something bigger. like a walk in the woods.
Knowing your morals. What you stand by and live with them in mind.

People who feel their life is meaningless, they are failing to see what matters, then what they dont have in their existence.
Be grateful for what you have.
living your life today, pursing your passions. People always put it off. But you only live once.
today people are always overwhelmed with their status, with how they look on social media.
Dont focus on others success focus on your own.
social media is corrupt and life is so much better without it, you dont have to delete it, just maybe take a break and see how your confidence and personality changes.
changing the world, making a difference. That is what people hope for, but its not something you strive for it happens, and you dont need to be well known of famous.
if you change one persons life, then they and their family will be changed and they have kids and so on. you could be helping so many kids far down multiple generations.
Also if they dont have kids they could be forever grateful, and spread their joy to others.
just like mike. He forever changed those kids lives.
you dont need recognition for your good deeds
