The Meaning of Life

A thought-provoking and practical guide to one of the greatest questions we will ever face: what is the meaning of life?

A thought-provoking and practical guide to one of the greatest questions we will ever face – what is the meaning of life?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

To wonder too openly or intensely about the meaning of life can seem a peculiar, ill-fated and faintly ridiculous pastime. It can seem like a topic on which ordinary mortals cannot make much progress. In truth, it is for all of us to wonder about, define and work towards a more meaningful existence.

The Meaning of Life considers a range of options for where the meaning of life can be found, including love, family, friendship, work, self-knowledge and nature.

We learn why certain things feel meaningful while others do not, and consider how we might introduce more meaning into our activities.

What follows is a hugely thought-provoking and practical guide to one of the greatest questions we will ever face.
