The Heart and the Head

4 - Responding to Suffering - Suffering as Meaningless


Listen Later

In these three episodes, I look at different ways we might respond and choose to experience suffering we encounter in our lives.

This episode looks at an option before us when we suffer: to see our suffering as meaningless. There are a few guiding texts which I reference during this discussion: Shakespeare’s Macbeth; as well as works by Albert Camus, Friedrich Nietzsche, and William Faulkner.
