Mozaik Women and Family Association held the first book analysis of the semester on Saturday, December 21 at Bülbülzade Foundation Center with Sinan Canan's book “The Meaning of Life” with the narration of Zeynep Aksu and Şüheda Uygun.
“It is a fundamental issue that everyone asks themselves from time to time, and even if they don't, they are always looking for it, sometimes consciously but mostly unconsciously. We, who “have to give meaning to things all the time” due to the ability called reason, desire that our existence here also has a meaning. We think of happiness as two things: pleasure and freedom from pain. There is a commonality in the things we enjoy: It ends. As human beings, we are the only beings who know that the food we eat, the relationship, any pleasurable activity will end. We know that the pleasure we receive will end, so while it gives us a lot of pleasure, at the same time we experience the sadness that it will end.”
The book analysis ended after a question and answer session with the participants.
