About this listen

We search for meaning, crave order, and cling to explanations—yet life answers us with silence. In that silence lies the absurd: the fundamental tension between human longing and the world’s indifference. Far from being an error or a failure of reason, absurdity is the very fabric of existence.

This book offers not despair, but release. To recognize absurdity is to discover a quiet freedom where the need to justify, to prove, to succeed, or even to “be right” dissolves. Here, guilt loses its authority and purpose its tyranny. What remains is the possibility to live, love, laugh, and act without obligation, without apology, beyond the chains of imposed meaning.

Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and spiritual reflection, Absurdity as Mercy reimagines human existence as something that requires no permission and no excuse. It is not a denial of faith or love but their renewal on new ground—fragile, spontaneous, and authentic.

In embracing the absurd, life ceases to be a question demanding an answer. It becomes a presence to be lived—merciful, unpredictable, and real.
