Navigating the Meaning of Life, Lani Morris
Maria Laine - "Maybe the question 'what is the meaning of life?' is just too big for us to answer. But what we can answer is 'what is the meaning of my life today?'" 02:45
"meaning is as important to human beings as water. When something is meaningful to us, it's like we know what are purpose is, were engaged, we're full of energy; it's like we're plugged into an energy supply of some kind. And then when meaning goes it's like whoops, I'm just wandering around on reserve batteries." 04:27
"one of the problems with meaning is that it comes and it goes; so I can start the morning full of energy and then I find myself playing patients." 04:58
