What’s the point of this thing called life?’
It is a question many of us ponder at various junctures throughout our lives.
Long before stepping onto the battlefields of Afghanistan, Mark Direen had a plan; to finish school and get a ‘responsible’ job. But life, as it often does, had other plans for this smalltown lad from Tasmania.
In this exploration of 30 years spent in war zones and high threat environments, journey through the human experience as Mark shares his intimate encounters with mortality.
From the brink of death emerges a tapestry of wisdom, illuminating the essence of what it truly means to live. Through heart-wrenching stories and uplifting revelations, ‘What’s The Point’ invites readers to confront their own mortality and discover the transformative power of embracing life in its fullest measure.
