Zusammenfassung:
You can stock your life with important work, relationships, activities, and art, and yet, you can still ask: what's the point of it all? The Meaning of It All explains that this is because there are different kinds of meaning, and some are impossible to achieve. It then shows us how to orient our lives in light of these bittersweet truths. This witty, poignant work sheds light on the roles that value, religion, the cosmos, death, and time play in the meaning in our lives and how best to live a meaningful, mortal life in time: a meaningful life is lived in the fullness of time, accepting suffering, acknowledging our tragic losses and limitations, and making the most of Everyday Meaning.
