Hi, in the face of our own uncertainty, spiritually can fill in the gap. Rest in the arms of God. We were all raised in some religious upbringing and tend to leave this behind us as we age. Go back to it, pray once in a while, pray for others that are ill, pray for some guidance that God will show you some talents where you can bring hope and wisdom to an otherwise unknown world.
Be a worker of God, thats all of our calling to bring good hope and aide to others.
We percieve that we are the center of the universe we will be faced we our own doom. If we percieve that we are here to help others then our lives really dont matter as when we work for God there is great job security.
