In this episode, we will be expanding on the belief in the absurd and using it as a starting point for this episode. After divorcing from what was once a familiar world, Camus concludes that we revolt against the tragic fate which we have come into existence. This philosophical attitude gives the person the freedom to construct their world as they see it, but such an overwhelming responsibility can be feared. So then, the question of does life have meaning becomes a fruitless one, and in this episode we will be investigating the more important question which is, how can we live a good life? We will be in reference to Epictetus, The Manual, and discussing elements of Stoicism to use as a method in living a good life.Support the show
