How do I find the hobby that suits my personality and gives me joy — and with it, the tribe of new friends I have been hoping for? — Hobby EnvyHobby Envy: I’m so sorry your family-building plans didn’t work out for you. Maybe a hobby isn’t the right direction for you now, though; maybe you’re better suited for a cause? Need for food assistance, need for reading buddies or (when it’s safe again) one-on-one tutoring, need for counseling, need for health care, need for clothing and basic hygiene supplies, need for school materials, need for repairs to crumbling infrastructure. Your efforts to build a family say you care deeply about children — and that’s something you can keep doing even if the children aren’t your own.
