In the light of existential analysis there is no such thing as a generally valid and universally binding task.*
Viktor Frankl

It’s not about finding the work you love as much as it is finding a set of problems you like to solve and are able to get re-energised for.**
Gabe Anderson

Silently listening is the universe,
Waiting for what we shall devise for
our meaning and purpose as:
emergent beings in the flow of life,
part of evolution;^
We have often found a problem to be
a good place to begin –
Such discoveries tend to then develop a life of their own.
