Reply to comment by AllanfromWales1 in Happiness is an essentially nihilistic ideal — it is the best goal to follow when there is nothing else on the table. A meaningful life on the other hand can embrace more of life including struggles and suffering because it is oriented towards a higher ideal by thelivingphilosophy

That was my reaction to. A higher ideal is extremely subjective, and striving towards some lofty or extremely difficult to achieve outcome isn't some sort of guaranteed path towards finding meaning. You decide what has meaning
