I have noticed, throughout my experiences with the armed forces, that young (and old) men who take their positions on the front lines, almost always have a faith in God.
I often wondered why, when these rufty, tufty men (and women) displayed all the hallmarks of dis-belief in any kind of creator before they even held a weapon of any kind.
Their attitudes (and faces) altered quite dramatically, upon their return from war zones. While the haunted stares and concentrated creases in their brows and pinched lips gave away the thoughts that mulled away in their minds, the stories they told were of another world. Another realm. As though their search for the meaning of life had just begun.
I've come across many people who have either faced their own death, were about to pop their clogs, or have dealt with the death of their loved ones - enough to know that God is here. Among us. With us. Inside us.
Learning about God's World and Word is interesting. If you take the time. Reading the Bible, or any other religious book, not only helps you clarify a little history of humanity, it also changes hearts and minds. The stories and metaphors that fill the pages, enlightens one's soul.
I'm not going all 'religious' on you but (yes, there's a but!), at times, the missing element in this physical life is something bigger than we allow ourselves to believe.
