But, don’t get me wrong. I know. At least, I think I know better than most. I’ve spent most of my life in existential exploration and what is true for me now is as true for me as it has ever been: All knowledge is self-knowledge. Anything we think about the world or about anything, […]
I don’t understand this world that I live in. Which, I guess, doesn’t really say much. I’ve never really understood this world I live in and I don’t think many other people do, either. Those that do write books or become entrepreneurs or politicians. Me? I’m still stuck in the “figuring it out” phase of my life. […]
I begin this section almost a year after I wrote PART I. Upon the conclusion of PART I, I hastily wrote both a PART II and a PART III, which were as follows: PART II This will be rather hard to describe… I have discovered that, by writing my system of ideas down as I […]

My entire life, ever since I can remember, the idea of existence has driven me; my mother tells me I am the most intense person she has ever met in regards to experience.
