Document Summary
Phil 1033 10. 05. 15: a question about the question, what is the meaning of life? we shouldn"t hastily dismiss the question question might be too vague, not precise. What it is when we seek meaning in life. Perspective of person living that life (important or not)- if they find it meaningful or rewarding. People who just buy into what they are doing and life isn"t meaningful. Live in hazy passivity not very invested in what they are doing. Don"t care what drinking or what is on tv. Even from this person point of view, they don"t care. Unless invested in their tv show and switch channel what came on at random, blog, talk about show then not hazy passivity, they rnt blob. Not the activity that"s meaningless, but examples of how the person stands to the activities. Engaged in some activity and not invested, don"t care. From own point of view isn"t invested or discriminating.
