I have just sent my son off to college (software engineering). I sent our daughter off a couple years ago (television and theatre arts management), but somehow since I still had two at home that wasn't cataclysmic. This is.
One left. A little one, to be sure, (daughter, 10 years old), but I really have to find something to make my life - for decades; the women in my family live to advanced ages - meaningful behond the grave.
Work isn't it. (I have an advanced degree in chemistry and a collection of interesting jobs - they're not it. The children will make their own mark, but that's only partially due to me.) Hobbies aren't it, unless they serve some social purpose. What should I do?
