The Human Project – Creating Meaning

It was the existentialist Jean Paul Sartre who coined the phrase, ‘man is condemned to be free’. As he saw it, in a world without gods, the human task is to create our own purpose and meaning.

Taking responsibility for our own existence is anguishing, he argues, but it is only by doing so that we can fulfil the potential of our lives. “We are our choices”, Sartre famously said, and what we become in life is up to us.

How do you create meaning in your life? Let’s talk about that when we get together!
