I think it's mindfulness.

You can find this in religion, or generic spirituality, or meditation, or any number of activities. Putting in the effort to be aware of yourself in the moment, in your mental context, and in the context of the group you find yourself in, your place in society and in the world, and where you are now and where you want to be before you shuffle off the mortal coil, all of these things are important and matter.

Of course, if you can fully grasp onto all of this at once then you're a better person than I, but it's still a task worth attempting since it can let you meta analyze your life and your feelings and increase the chance that your decisions are made intentionally, which is nice because you have to live with them no matter what.
