Question

How can one feel a sense of meaning without screens?

Answer

Shalom and blessings 

Your question is itself the answer. 

It is clear that our sense of meaning does not depend on screens or on society. 

Value and meaning are our intrinsic worth as human beings and as Jews. 

Precisely the pause of one day a week brings us back to the true value: by disconnecting from external sources of value and focusing on our personal worth, on family, on faith in Hashem, and on the other values that are truly important.
