Attritional Poverty Pt 1
Learning about the Man's Search for Meaning, a book by Dr. Viktor E. Frankl. I know that I have read this to an extent and I know its a heavy book. It's about Jews and The Holocaust. Learning how to make meaning out of that is powerful. Like how Out of the Depths by Isabel Knockwood have impacted me; I know that Man's Search for Meaning is similar. They both have mass murders and genocide in their present. They both had to make meaning out of suffering, defined it and work on it. I had an ideally simple lifestyle where it was idyllically simplistic living where I was a country boy. I was a Heavy Metal Philosopher, Mad Scientist and Pocket Hulk. I know that I had a lot of nicknames tried and not stick. I know that something sticking was Flanders like Flander's Field. Names can have their impacts. But I know that books too, have their impacts too. Learning how to make meaning out of suffering, I know that I'm accepted, respected, loved and valued by my step parents....
