“The unexamined life is not worth living” - Socrates

Socrates is reported to have spoken these words at his trial for impiety and corrupting youth, for which he was put to death.

Plato is reported to have said, “The unexamined life is mere waste.”

These famous philosophers felt that to live one’s life without self -awareness, self-realization, or without a sense of its meaning or purpose is a life wasted.

So I pose this question to you, dear listener……

What constitutes a life worth living for you?

This is the BIG QUESTION we are tackling, here at the beginning of Season Four.

I’ve asked this question of myself hundreds of times and throughout my life, depending on where I was in my journey, the answers evolved. And now, in my 80’s, with much less life left ahead than I’ve already lived, this question and others, arise for me yet again.

What makes my life worth living?

What does my life want/require of me?

Am I living my life as if it’s life worth living?

I also asked this question to members of the Facebook group: Living in The New Beyond. Tune in and hear their responses.

And how about you, dear listener? How would you answer this question? Use the link in the announcements to leave a voice message with your response.
