re: Life is meaningless

If it were just me, I might be able to simply disengage, retreat to solitude, engage in individual pursuits, and scoff at the world's decline. But I have a daughter. I'm charged with providing for her and raising her. I have to not only find a way to survive in a mad world, but to excel and safeguard the people I love, all without sacrificing my fundamental principles. A child makes it much harder to be indifferent. I'm sure most parents feel the same.
