Having a settled and routined life can bring a sense of meaning

I like things to go the way that I expect them to – most of the time anyway. A predictable life with lots of routines and habits means I don’t have to think about every little thing that I do. What I hadn’t appreciated until recently was how these routines help me find more meaning in my life. Not in the sense of helping me find the “Meaning OF life” – more the sense of finding life to be meaningful and that it makes sense. The blog post for this episode is here. A journal article referred is here.
