Italian poet/novelist/playwright/philosopher Luigi Pirandello (Nobel Prize for Literature 1934) said that life is a buffoonery that can be dealt with only through writing. He said that because he was a writer (and I tend to agree with him). But it can be said the same about any kind of art or skill. Life is difficult and it always provides human beings with many challenges. It is up to each individual to choose how to face such challenges. Most think that only practical actions can be useful. But in many cases an intellectual outlet can be greatly beneficial as well (if not more). Not all problems can be solved through physical action because actual deeds cannot always provide the psychological/emotional relief that one wishes for.
