Read this from
Wikipedia...
Someone who believes in reality might be called a "realist," and someone who believes in a deity could identify as a "theist."
Someone who believes fundamentally only in existence, and seeks to find meaning in his or her life solely by embracing existence, is an existentialist.Somehow, I just laughed out loud at the italicised sentence. I think it's cos I think I just found the way to define me, or describe me in one sentence. I embrace existence because there is no meaning in inflicting pain onto oneself in any attempt to end that existence. So, what is the meaning I've sought in life?
If I had found the meaning, I can't be an existentialist anymore. And if I have not found the meaning, I must still be seeking for the meaning. Hence, I am an existentialist.
This is hazy. But I've been reading philo... so, that's my line of argument or defence or whatever. Not like I care... haha
