Life Without A Purpose
An engaging, interactive discussion of what we want from life.
Life Without A Purpose
It is said that an unexamined life is not worth living. But what if you examine your life - the things that happened and are bound to happen - and find it empty? Or perhaps you'll find that your life is just alright - not really empty, but not 'bright'. You lead a kind of lackluster existence - get up, go to work, exercise, eat, sleep. The bottom line is that we all want meaning. So how do we get to that? Do we need a singular purpose? A higher calling? A vocation, mission, or just an inspiring list of goals? In this Philosophy Salon, we will talk about life without a purpose and what is gained - not lost - if purpose is not what we really need and want.
Meeting Information
Doors open at 18:45 and close at 19:10. Please be on time! We won't be able to accommodate attendees arriving after 19:10.
Philosophy Salons
The Philosophy Salons are gatherings of curious people to explore big ideas with an open mind. The Philosophy Salons were created by Anya Farennikova, a philosopher of mind based in Amsterdam. We dive deep into beliefs and ideas, dive out, and have fun along the way!
