Life Is A Locked Room (Mere Mortals Episode #87 - Musings)

Life is like a room filled with suffering, locked on the outside by a guy in a silly hat. In this episode of 'Musings' Juan and Kyrin discuss: enjoying/reflecting on the small wins and not needing the big life changing moments, Juan's morning routine to ground himself, Man's Search For Meaning and 3 ways to find it, some analogies for life and the inherent nature of suffering and allowing yourself to lose hobbies/work/whatever and replacing it with something else. As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
