Beschreibung
"Today, what is most important to society? A successful career, a perfectly curated Instagram account, a 10-step skin care routine? If all of these things are meant to make us feel safe and happy, why does this generation remain defined by stress, burn out, and obsessive individuality? Award-winning writer Wendy Syfret examines why these achievements have not made us happy and asks readers to consider a touch of something completely different: nihilism. The notion that using a philosophy of 'life is meaningless' to find a new happiness may sound contradictory, however Syfret's application of upbeat nihilism may offer absolution of society's constant struggle to keep up with work, love, and religion. Nihilism dismantles our self-care and self-centered way of living and instead asks readers to consider the alternative as a better solution to our obsessive individuality: everything in our world means nothing. Freed from the burden of meaning, we can simply enjoy our lives and build more pleasant societies for each other. Syfret's way of examining a traditionally pessimistic concept of living will redefine what we place importance on-and end up happier because of it"--
