Thx for your vulnerability and honesty. I think men desperately need community, brotherhood, positive ritual, and connection. We are far removed from these aspects of life that our ancestors enjoyed c which came through church or social groups or civic organizations, especially service-oriented ones. We can rebuild these now, locally, with one another. Is there a cause you can assist, a needy population that you can help? Often deep connection and community arises from shared action and goals. You can lead other men to help those less fortunate. Or you can start a small support group to help young fathers. Or or or… Koan Baez said, “The antidote to despair is action.” Take action now. Can you put your energy towards that? Would that answer your longing for a life that mattered? Hoping for that for you, and men like you.
