ANNOTATION:
meaning making is the optimization of fitness
I would agree, meaning making must provide sume survival benefit or we would not spend so much time and energy upon the process of finding or creating meaning. I think that assumeing a connection between the serch for optimal fitness and meaning making is appropriate. Exactly what processes are being optimized is unclear, and so is the level at which this optimization occurrs, i.e. the individual, the species genepool or the total gene pool of all living organism. What I am trying to get at is that the approch to optimal fitness occurs at all levels, from the physical to the chemical, biological, psychological, social, cutural, species, all of life inself, and also with the environment.
