How do they do it?

"Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love and something to hope for." --Joseph Addison

That is a great quote, and so true. I would have added: "and something to believe in". As I go from day to day and see the wonder and beauty of God's handiwork, I feel so sad for those who don't believe in God and the wonder of intelligent design. I wonder how those who don't believe that there is a God who is above all things get through crises like cancer, loss of loved ones, war, and the day to day madness that surrounds us in this world. I take comfort in knowing there is One who is infinite and omnipotent and able to make things ultimately "work out for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28)
