“I don’t believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.”   —   Joseph Campbell

(Because, deep down most people realize that there really is no way to find the meaning of life.  Religious dogma can direct you their various ideologies.  And, science looks more to the origins of life.  But, the meaning of life is an unknowable puzzlement.  The issue makes for great philosophical discussion, but seldom any real concession, except that life is both fragile and short.  Better to just live it, than to quibble over its meaning.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Answer:  RELIGIOUSLY

(Pretty predictable today.  No new clue words, but three of the jumbles did come up as new.  We’ve seen “zaleg” sometime in the past.  All of today’s jumbles kind of jumped off the page for me, immediately.  The answer letter layout was a great jumble too, but the entire combination of the cartoon, its dialog, and the clue/question made the answer abundantly clear, to me.  Fun cartoon though.  It reminds me that I have to get to the gym today.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
