                                             n our day, some people seriously lack
                                             a purpose in life. Almost everyone
                                    IIadopts a standard way of living. To
                                        feed one's self, to find a house in which to
                                        reside, to set up a family, and to have a job
                                        are the praised values to which one mostly
                                        aspires. In this standard way of living, the
                                        most important goal in life is to find ways
                                        to make a better living and to raise children.
                                           For a better understanding of the
                                        purposelessness and meaninglessness
                                        permeating the lives of societies remote
                                        from religious morality, it will be useful to
                                        look at other areas of interest apart from the
                                        aforementioned. Some people have a rather
                                        limited outlook. Often, not missing a TV
                                        series or watching a popular movie is what
                                        gives their daily life a meaning. For such
                                        people, a better goal in life, if any, might be
                                        to belong to a social club.
                                           Another group of people's minds are
                                        totally preoccupied with business. All
                                        through their lives, they commute between
                                        office and home. A person starting his career
                                        in his early 20s does the same job for almost
                                        40 years. Meanwhile, he often finds himself
                                        waiting for Fridays. His main ambitions
                                        amount to closing the tax month without
                                        problems, managing to find the rent every
                                        month, and to securing his children's future.
                                        Hardly any national or world events excite
