mean·ing
In Youtube's: - 'Jordan Peterson - the 4 horsemen' - 4 intellectuals do a wonderful job expressing their views on the higher concepts of - 'meaning'! Coming from their own experiences, each voices their varied takes!
It is a lengthy exchange, and though meaning to finish it, admittedly I needed to quit it some 2/3rd through.
Still, I felt there was one type of Horseman missing. A less cerebral - more basic - feet firmly planted on the ground type! Like a Naturalist, or Biologist? Just to remind us that the origins of meaning lie inherent in the very core of our physical inner being!
Like the meaning of feeling warm and being well-fed! To live with or without pain; to love something or someone! These are all essential meanings constantly determining the quality of our lives. 'Meanings' about Religion and questioning the Origin of the Cosmos, are cerebral extensions to the ones determining our very being & survival.
These days, with the global expansion of the Covid Virus, the Meaning of Life has been brought right back to our front doors! We are now beyond colour, beyond language, beyond culture, beyond nationhood! The dire meaning of a superior entity is in our midst, and it is a super BUG that can eat us all alive!
Its full 'meaning' is yet to come full circle! The chips will fall as they will - over time!
