Meaning of life

Thu Sep 4 @ 18:00 Barcola Discussion

Description

This week marks the one year anniversary of the club! We’ll go back to where it all started at the barcola fountain and re-ask the same questionL What is the meaning of life? This question encompasses a wide range of philosophical and personal perspectives on the different ways of living. we’ll touch topics such as whether life has a meaning, if it’s something required to live a good life, and what makes life worth living.

Summary

What is the meaning of life? To have a higher purpose? Reproduction? Simply to be? Forty-two? This is a question that has baffled humans from the very start of civilisation. It encompasses your whole viewpoint of yourself, the world and the universe as a whole. during the discussion we touched on areas such as defining what meaning is and how it can differ from pursuit, how experiencing the “dark side of the moon” can change your perspective on life to give it meaning, and how we are almost tricked into believing we need to strive for more to find meaning. As always, we didn’t find the answer to the meaning of life, but we sure did have a good time trying! I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone that has shown up to the weekly meet-ups over the past year. Its been a great adventure sharing different perspectives on a wide variety of topics with such a diverse and wonderful group of individuals. I look forward to what the next year has in store!
