Thoughts on what it is to exist.
“ It is impossible to exist without passion, unless we understand the word “exist” in the loose sense of a so-called existence…and it is just this that it means to exist, if one is to become conscious of it. Eternity is the winged horse, infinitely fast, and time is a worn-out jade; the existing individual is the driver. That is to say, he is such a driver when his mode of existence is not an existence loosely so called; for then he is no driver but a drunken peasant who lies asleep in the wagon and lets the horse take care of themselves. To be sure, he also drives and is a driver and so there are many who-also exist”
So many in our society are asleep at the reins, asleep at the will....
Thoughts on faith. Faith goes beyond reason. Faith involves risk. You must take a great leap to find faith and in turn become truly self aware.
"There is no other road to faith; if one wishes to escape risk, it is as if one wanted to know with certainty that he can swim before going into the water"
