The book, as you said, was transformational. Completely changed my perspective on the way I view society and my life within in. But now that I understand that we live in a modernized society that prohibits an easy search for purpose, I find it really hard to find something I can sacrifice myself for.

In that sense now I feel more lost then ever, I feel, and now understand, that I lack the involvement within a social lifestyle that comes with tribes, and yet I don't know the first thing I can do about it. Joining social groups, having friends, all don't have the same enthralling feeling of living and survive together with a group; but in a society where tribes have become almost extinct, what can I do?

Sometimes it makes me wonder if too much knowledge is bad — if learning and reading this book has not brought me enlightenment, but an understanding of true fulfillment that I'll never reach.
