Abstract

Human flourishing is not about new recipes that we have to follow to live a meaningful life. Human flourishing involves awareness, choice, freedom, and moral, spiritual, and cultural dimensions. From ancient times till today, philosophers have taught us that the meaning of life is a spiritual journey that one must undertake, which requires freedom and creativity. In other words, human flourishing is about how we embrace our destiny and our human condition, and how we create our present and prepare for the near future.
