I Just Want Happiness I Don't Want Meaning
The Gerardian theory is that the very experience of meaning is what makes it meaningful. It's a little depressing if you think about it why isn't our contact with meaning like a joy and pleasure, he says. He thinks love transforms people from their disaffected state to one in which they are more interested in meaning. But some still don't believe in meaning or aren't willing to sacrifice for it right? "I just want happiness I don't want all this sacrifice suffering thing," he adds.
