Making meaning 150 150 Jerry Murphey

We as humans are meaning making machines, and we use story to create clarity in the chaos, hardship and suffering around us.  

In his book, Man’s Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl tells a story of his imprisonment in concentration camps during World War II.

In the depths of total suffering, Viktor’s story could have easily ended in a concentration camp. Instead he went on to create Logotherapy, which says, “through a search for meaning and purpose in life, individuals can endure hardship and suffering.”
