When “Man’s Search for Meaning” is in service of man’s best friend…..

Socrates taught the ancients about the merits of “a life well-lived.”

And, in post-World War II America, Holocaust survivor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl helped us figure out how to achieve it.

In “Man’s Search for Meaning,” Frankl reminds us not only that there’s value in our search for meaning, but also that each of us has a duty to find our meaning — and pursue it.

It all begins with an obsession — a passion — a desire to make a difference. And, yes, sometimes a refusal to accept injustice.

Some care for the elderly. Some teach kids to read. Others volunteer abroad.

How we serve is not the issue. What’s important is to find the thing that moves us and pour ourselves into it.

To achieve “a life well-lived,” we must find and cultivate meaning in our daily life.

TW Taylor and I rescue shelter dogs and fly them to adoptive families or loving sanctuaries.

He’s a pharmacist. I’m a medical doctor. We’re both pilots. We’re two of the most insanely enthusiastic dog lovers on the planet. And we’re 1000% unwilling to sit idly by as shelter animals are euthanized.

We consider ourselves lucky to have discovered a new chapter of meaning in our life. And we are fortunate to be supported by people like you. People who “get” that a life well-lived requires community, thoughtful persistence, and — of course — dogs.

Welcome to The Pack! Now, let’s get busy clearing the shelters!
