Why Humans Crave Meaning

Ever since the beginning of time, humans have looked up at the stars, peered into the ocean's depths, and probed our own hearts, all while being plagued by the same question: Why?
For what reason are we here? For what reason does suffering mold us? Even when the universe appears to be silent, why do we still yearn for meaning?

Mnemosynic Psychora's book Why Humans Crave Meaning examines the age-old search for meaning in an ambiguous world. Combining psychology, philosophy, and firsthand human experience, this book explores how humanity's search for purpose has shaped societies, spurred invention, and enabled people to persevere in the face of adversity.

Through lucid and captivating insights, the author demonstrates how purpose serves as a compass, enhancing perspective, fostering resilience, and shedding light on ways through chaos. By exposing how meaning exists in small rituals, relationships, deeds of service, and personal narratives, the book dispels the myth that it can only be found in grand answers.

Why Humans Crave Meaning serves as a mirror and a manual at the same time. It confirms that although we might never find the answers we seek, the process of searching changes us. Being human is battling mystery, and in the process, we discover our true selves.

This book serves as a reminder to readers looking for inspiration, solace, or clarity: meaning is woven into our lives, our love, and our perseverance; it is not a gift from the universe.
