"He is not Only unhappy, but also ashamed of being unhappy" Edith Weisskopf-Joelson at Frankl's

According to logotherapy we can discover this meaning in life in three different ways (1) by creating a work or doing a deed ... ;-)

This book is pretty amazing.

Working on a dozen books right now and this is one of them.. One of the top "most influential books" ever according to some survey done by the library of congress.

What [man] becomes-- within the limits of endowment and environment-- he has made out of himself.

I'm reading Man's Search For Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl

El primer libro electrónico que compro... Ya tenia muchos otros pero nunca había comprado uno. Éste fue una excelente opción para Kindle

mans primary motivation in life is his search for meaning. Not sure how much I agree with that, but I'll keep reading.

Just got to the logotherapy part. Hope it's as good and profound as the first part.

In spite of all the enforced physical and mental primitiveness of the life in a concentration camp, it was possible for spiritual life to deepen.

Lessing Said "There are things which must cause you to lose your reason or you have none to lose" -Frankl

Life is not primarily a quest for pleasure, as Freud believed, or a quest for power, as Alfred Adler taught, but a quest for meaning.

Horrifying true story of a concentration camp survivor & his development of logotherapy. Fascinating. Highly reccommended. Short read...but not a light one. Deep stuff in here.

Listening on the work commute... Very fitting for a cubicle dweller!

Kidlets are down for the night. Having some blankie/book time :-D

Taking a mini break from GoT. Reading on therapists advice.

This book proves almost everything I've ever believed to be true. Enlightening and reassuring

Every book I read keeps referencing back to this, so it's time I read it.

I read this @ my hammock on the living room with a cold wind in my face.
