What Is the Meaning of Life?

Withstanding the suffering around us now is not only a personal matter, but a societal one. A good way to face the pain is to understand what its intensity might be. High lighting tragedy hurts because there is first love. Sadness and fear are reminded that we are living souls, not calculating machines. The prevalence of darkness high lights sources of light. As was said of the figure who hangs broken on the cross, truth shines in the world despite whether the world understands or even wants it.
