What is the purpose of life? Why are humans here on this tiny planet amidst the immense vastness of the Universe? Can lives have significance and meaning?
To these questions, Dave Dale said, “He never found a remotely satisfactory answer in anything he read or heard. Many of the purported answers to those questions from philosophers and physicists such as life is “absurd” or “pointless”, he could not accept. He looked around and saw the intrinsic, magnificent beauty of the earth and the infinite wonder of the Universe and knew there is an answer befitting the splendour that is the Universe. It is simply illogical to believe that, against all odds, humans are born here amongst such awe to just suffer or meander through a meaningless and pointless existence. The many wonders and inspirations such as the pure love that is a newborn baby or the exquisite beauty of a single rose provide touchstones to intriguing answers.”
The book features some powerful stories of love that were tested and shaped by a tragedy which helped the author see love more clearly. There are aspects of love that are gritty and don’t adhere to comfortable expectations such as the unconditional love of a mother for her son who had murdered a child. The book explores the full spectrum of love including the unvarnished dimensions where everyone can learn lessons about love.
One of the themes of the book is individuals and society need to love and to create more. Just as a computer needs an operating system so too does an individual and a culture need an ‘operating system’. The author argues that loving and creating should be that ‘operating system that individuals and the human race need now to tackle the myriad of problems that impact mankind and the earth.
Loving and creativity are fundamental and are the building blocks to finding purpose and meaning in life is the cornerstone proposition of ‘The Purpose of Life is: To Love and To Create’.
“The book is an exploration of the profoundness and nuances of love and creation and why they are so vital.”
“People also unconsciously minimize love by thinking of it merely as the opposite of hate or saying they love a particular TV show, type of food, article of clothing or sports team. Love is so much more,” said Dale.
In the book, the author explores quantum physics, philosophers, religious leaders, artists, actors, writers, scientists and some seemingly everyday people with extraordinary insights looking for answers. Surprisingly, digging below the surface, illuminating consensuses and insights emerged even from the dourest of philosophers and scientists.
Throughout the book, love, creativity, tragedy, and paradoxes are examined to understand the purpose and meaning of life.
“This book was crafted to challenge a great deal of conventional thinking about life, love, creativity, and tragedy but also to ultimately get answers to the questions of the purpose and meaning of life. With the goal that anyone could then take the answers and incorporate them into their day-to-day life to feel more fulfilled and be a better person. And conversely not lay awake worrying about life rushing past and dying unfulfilled,” Dale added.
