should remain open to life even when we have been subjected to appalling injustice and even
when we are faced with our own mortality and the brief nature of our lives. At a time of global

and more important than ever. Whether you're a devoted follower of Frankl's work or a newcomer
seeking to enrich your understanding of life's purpose this book promises a captivating
journey that will leave you pondering its teachings long after you've turned the final page.
Just imagine what would happen what life would look like if there were no death. Imagine what
it would be like if you could postpone anything and everything if you could put it off for
eternity. You wouldn't have to do anything today or tomorrow. Everything could just as easily
be done next week next month next year in a decade in 100 or 1 000 years. Only in the face
of death only under pressure from the finiteness the temporal limitation of human existence
is there any point in going about our business and not only in going about our business but
in experiencing life and not only in experiencing life but also in loving someone and even in
enduring and surviving something that is inflicted on us.
