Summary: In this interview, we discuss the distinction between meaning in life and the meaning of life, what contributes to a meaningful life, and how it relates to well-being and morality. We also discuss the role of spirituality in meaning. Ultimately, Metz believes that meaningfulness in life comes from actively orienting one’s rational nature toward the good, the true, and the beautiful.
