And I feel like we're losing part of that because of the way that even our current political campaign is centered more around celebrity than anything else, and so we're kind of losing conversation. We're still having conversations, but they seem to be more about like Donald Trump's hair and like memes of his face more than anything else.

The question of what we can do to give purpose or meaning to our lives has been debated for thousands of years by philosophers and common men.
