Many years ago (as counted by me) my wife read an encyclopedia description of the classic Greek stoics -- Seneca, Epictetus, et.al. She pointed out to me how close their views were to mine and I agreed.
I don't believe in the supernatural and only blame myself for things in my life that I can affect. From that base I try to be 'part of a solution rather than part of the problem'.
As much as I despair recently about the state of our society, I haven't found any reason to significantly change.
