Ok. I think. If I understand you right, you fear that realising there might be no god to which to ascend will lead to your feeling alone in the world, spiritually speaking. That you are going to have to face life on its own terms, without the safety net of believing you're destined for higher things. Am I on the right track? Because if so, I have to ask you if believing the panacea - the "comforting lie" - is more important to you than the harsh truth of reality?
As for whether finding your own path is subjective, again if that's what you're saying, well yes it is. So is everyone else's. The interface between those subjective paths is called society. Welcome to the human race.
