Understanding the meaning of life is something that is only discussed once in a while for an average person. It isn’t something that people talk about that often considering there is no definite answer to the question of what the meaning of life is. Not being interested in what the meaning is doesn’t mean that you aren’t intelligent or that your life doesn’t have any meaning. You can be highly intelligent and have other things going on that require your thoughts.
Key Takeaways:
- Some people might not think about the meaning of their life because it is already meaningful in the ways they want.
- Some people feel embarrassed about not feeling like their life is meaningful. However, it doesn’t seem obvious that people need to think about this on a conscious level.
- Some people want to think about their lives in the grand scheme of the universe and others are simply content with having good relationships with others.
“I suggest that lack of concern about meaning in one’s life doesn’t show anything problematic about the meaning in one’s life.”
