INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY OF HUMAN PESON

MEANINGFUL LIFE
 Have you ever wondered about nothing
seems to last FOREVER?

Even more, what about the cycle of being

born, getting old being sick and dying?
 These go to one very important reality at
Same point to our human condition;

We are temporal beings which means that we

Are human being oriented towards impending life
Death
Death signifies the end
of our being on which
Judgement will be passed
and on which the possibility
of a higher form
Of being depends.
Realizing
Positive
Life Goals
 Happiness
Happiness has been
Shown to predict positive
Outcomes in many
Different areas of life
including mental well-
Being, physical health,
And overall longevity.
 Noble Good
-is one which is pursued for own
Sake; it is good in itself.

Example:
• Friends
• Love
• Family
 Useful Good
-is considered good as long as it
Serves as means to an end; its
Goodness is found only from what
It can provide.
 Pleasurable Good
- Provides some form of pleasure,
Through it doesn’t have to be
physical.
 Suffering
-is an unpleasant or even
Anguishing experience which
Can severely affect a person on
A psychophysical and even
Existential level.
 Physical Suffering
-Physical sensation such as
Discomfort, hunger, distress,
Homeless and pain from an
Injury, disease or even lack of
Basic needs.
 Mental Suffering
-emotional and mental states
Such as depression, anxiety,
Loneliness, and grief.
 Quotes of the day:
A meaningful life is not
About being rich, being
Popular, being highly
Educated or being perfect…
It is about being real,
Being humble, being strong
And being able to share
Ourselves and touch the
Lives of others.
