I have been confused when it comes to my values. Sometimes, I feel leading a spiritual life will get me peace and happiness. Other times, I feel material success will give me satisfaction. I go through phases where I swing from one side to another. I tend to philosophize about everything without getting anywhere. I do not understand the difference between what I 'feel' and what I 'think’, I don't know if one is necessarily better than the other.
Lately, it seems that spirituality makes me cynical and far away from reality while being materialistic used to make me anxious and restless. Some people lead their lives merrily without needing to consider these stuff. I envy them!
I think that a middle path exists where I can be fairly ambitious in the material world, but keeping myself grounded by practicing spirituality at the same time.
