> For a long time, I had been enduring a crisis of meaning. I wanted to live a life that mattered, to do things that were valuable – and I was increasingly haunted by the suspicion that nothing really mattered, that everything was ultimately meaningless. I decided that my new research project would be on the meaning of life.

Philosophy and the meaning of (or in) life ...

I came up with....

- do not be a waste of our humanity

- manifest magnificence (create something great that outlives one's self.)

- exhalation and fulfillment are the pinnacle of life (not "happiness", for myself anyway.)
