Life is to be enjoyed, not simply endured. Pleasure and goodness and joy support the pursuit of survival.

When men achieve the fruits of their material success, they often become aware of an emptiness--an incompleteness--in their lives;the hollowness of having, but not raising, children, of not making true commitments to them. Which, sadly, does not mean that they weren't capable of it.
