Abstract:

The daily life displays its positive meanings in many respects, such as its confirming and safeguarding life value, its sublating human instrumental formulations through its intersubjective communicative action, its participating in and ensuring a continuance of culture, and its constandy mixing individuals with the world and making them acquire a sense of identity of the world. On the other hand, owing to its free and accomplished nature, the daily life tends to lead people to accept an already existing life and a behavioral model of following ordinary people. The daily life checks a reflection on the meaning of existence, and meanwhile it seems to keep human free developments under certain restraint.

Key words: daily life, human existence, individual
