Living a life without morals has a very real, practical societal cost. It's generally an awful idea if you want to have any kind of success in life. That's at least one practical answer, but I can give you a much deeper answer some other time. TL;DR: having a "why" isn't tied to religion for me, but it's very clearly tied to my own internal compass. We humans are very much wired to take care of and cooperate with one another just as much as we're wired to compete, and I like tapping into that.
