Description

What's it all about Alfie? What is the meaning of life? Why do we do the things we do? What are we looking for? This is part 1 of an exploration into existential themes such as death, Loneliness, personal choice, freedom & responsibility. It's more than possible that if we can find purpose & meaning in our lives, it becomes bearable…& maybe even enjoyable.
