Living out the meaning of life with pictures
In the first part we said before, interested friends can look through the previous articles. This time we will focus on the second part.
The nothingness of existence
The main manifestation of the nothingness of existence is boredom. Schopenhauer said: Man is destined to hover between the poles of anxiety and boredom. In fact, boredom brings more problems than anxiety.
And these problems are getting worse, because automation may lead to more and more leisure time for the average worker, and many workers do not know how to take advantage of this large amount of leisure time.
Sometimes, the nothingness of existence also appears wearing various masks and disguises. Sometimes, the frustrated person's pursuit of meaning is compensated by the pursuit of power. There are also times when the frustrated person's pursuit of meaning is replaced by the pursuit of pleasure.
The nothingness of existence is a common phenomenon in industrial and commercial society!

The meaning of life
Since every situation in life is a challenge for people and raises questions that need to be solved by you, the question of the meaning of life is actually reversed. Man should not ask him what the meaning of life is, but must admit that it is life that raises his questions.
Simply put, life asks questions of everyone, and he must answer life's questions through an understanding of his own life. In dealing with life, he can only take on his own responsibilities.
The meaning of suffering
The main concern is not to gain pleasure or avoid suffering, but to see the meaning of its life. This is why people are even prepared to suffer, and in this sense his suffering has meaning.
In courageously accepting the challenge of suffering, life takes on meaning in that moment and keeps that meaning to the end. In other words, the meaning of life is unconditional because it even includes the potential meaning of inevitable suffering.

It is assumed that life is meaningful in all circumstances, even in extremely tragic circumstances. Human creativity transforms negative factors in life into positive or constructive factors.
That said, it's important to make the most of any given situation and stay optimistic in the face of disaster.
Human beings always have the ability to 1 transform the sufferings of life into achievements; 2 the opportunity to refine from sin; and 3 to derive the motivation to act responsibly from short lives.
