If you are going to be a thinker, with some impulse to teach, you're going to run into the strangeness of projected truth.  It's like finding out that, after all, to be masculine and heterosexual in the most helpful and appropriate way involves being comfortable with your feminine side.  It's like finding out that it is actually okay and good to be passive, that there was good reason behind that, healthy reasons, meant to foster good oxytocin.  The problem was feeling impinged upon by societal attitudes as much as anything, in thinking there was but one way to go, to be super masculine, domineering.  Maybe that works for some, but not for all of us.

This where primitive societies might outdo us, by allowing for myth and ritual, so that the spiritual is combined in all facets of life.  Do we have myths that may be applied to any modern job?  The mythical marketer?  The website of Valhalla?

I guess the Odyssey speaks enough to us.  But it would be nice to make a broader segment of the population feel less the uselessness of jobs or their own attempts at participation, and this is done in light of higher truth.  No wonder young people find satisfaction in organic small scale farming.

Maybe one worthy effort would be to make people feel useful on their own, basically as they are.  That is what religions try to do anyway.
