What makes life meaningful? Is happiness a worthy goal? What is the foundation for meaning in a secular society? Is life an existential void?
Frank Martela, author of A Wonderful Life (Harper Design 2020), will deliver a talk on meaning in life, providing a unique perspective that explores what brings significance to our existence and why we are dissatisfied with the present and have a continual yearning for something beyond where we are right now.
