Wow! I'm going to buy the book: Man's search for meaning.

Joe - What a wonderful article, you certainly have found your flow based on your wonderful writing.

It is so true - alignment of our inner world with our outer world brings so much joy. I wasn't able to action the self knowledge this aspiration requires until I did a core values excercise which I outline on my blog. I also used Myers Briggs to understand my personality type plus mediation and self-care. Plus a personal development coach for over a year. Now I'm loving my life every day is full of fun, achievement and meaning. No more depression - haven't had that in years. No more anxiety either. But plenty of that before I found who I was and created a life of meaning.
