Meaning is less an objective thing to be discovered than a life-project, a narrative that unfolds over time. This doesn\u2019t mean that every detail of our life fits a perfectly coherent plot, but rather we forge a beautiful expression of our deepest values.\nGuest:\xa0\nTodd May\xa0is Class of 1941 Memorial Professor of Philosophy at Clemson University and the author of A Significant Life: Human Meaning in a Silent Universe.\nMaking Meaning\xa0is a limited series from\xa0Ministry of Ideas\xa0that explores how life can be lived more meaningfully.
