I know the question is a bit vague, but I'm hoping people will interpret this however they see fit an give their own experiences.

To be honest, I'm struggling a bit with this right now and would enjoy reading others' experiences.

Gardening has been fun. Listening to the birds in my garden, hiking, taking walks.

I'm trying to focus on the journey of life more as I used to be a weekend warrior. But so much life happens between the weekends and focusing more on that had been helping me mentally.

As for finding meaning, I can't answer that. I am in my 40s and have never found meaning. But there are things I enjoy, so I try to focus on the thing I find joy in.
