Nope, it pretty much sounds like you hit the nail on the head - we want to live meaningful lives without anything of actual value (and meaning) in them. It's a nice thought, but excessively hedonistic "you do you" lives only create more misery. I think we're in an inbetween place where some of us, at least, are striving for a balance between an excessive rigidity of the past and these more lenient, you can be what you wanna be values, which are too lax.

I agree, though it is heavily skewed to one side. I would say that it is less than 10% that really put in the effort to build their life, while most others just talk about why they can't, or dream about what they won't work for.
