For a Meaningful Life, Ask Yourself Who You'd Bring to a Remote Island
While finding the meaning of life might be too big of a task for this Monday, we can at least help you with making things a bit moremeaningful. And all it’s going to cost you is a little bit of time and brain energy. According to philosopherDr. Frank Martela,all you’ve got to do is ask yourself who you’d bring to a remote island.
Where not talking the fun first date kind of way, where you say a bunch of celebrities. Sit down and think of the names of the people you have real relationships with who you’d take to a remote island or on a year-long sailing trip. Dr. Martela says this exercise is meant to help you “identify the people who are truly important to you and with whom the mere fact of being together is a source of vitality and meaning.”
So how does this make your life meaningful?Well, according to Dr. Martela, having a meaningful and well-lived life means having people in your life you can genuinely trust, care about, and love and that we see the value in our own lives through how meaningful we are to others. In other words, if you’re struggling to assemble your remote island dream team, take this as a kick in the butt to start making yourself more meaningful to other people. It’s as easy as asking someone if they need help or buying them a beer.But you might want to avoid telling them you’re recruiting them for a remote island. Might be a bit awkward.

Experts say dogs are scared of facemasks: While facemasks may protect humans from the coronavirus, it may be having a negative side effect for pooches. According to experts, wearing such masks can leave dogs confused and “concerned” because it keeps them from reading facial expressions. “As face masks become an increasingly common sight in our daily lives, we should make sure our dogs are also able to take this in their stride,”Dr. Jenna Kiddie, head of behavior at the animal charity Dogs Trust, “Without being able to see full faces, a dog is less able to interpret human emotion or our intentions."
