May Contain Truth

<p><strong><em>We do not know if the self exists ...</em></strong></p><p></p><p>You may ask How could we be unsure if the self exists? To respond we must first explore what the self is through an examination of the natural principles that exist outside of the self. This is the philosophical paradox of the modern day. </p><p></p><p><em>Philosophy is dead. This manuscript seeks to revive it. Moreover in the recesses of its mind these essays contemplate that back in 1882 Nietzsche claimed that God is dead. Now before knowing if there is still a god today we must first ask if there is still a self. It is this disenchantment with the self this separation between the experiences of the known and unknown relative to the self that informs our every decision ... or lack thereof. Philosophy was once a fundamental pillar of Literature. With it we think critically capture the world linguistically and refine the art of being human through dialogue with others.</em></p><p></p><p>If you find yourself contending with hope in the world feeling plagued by meaninglessness and replaceable values this read will enthuse your mind to recognize the eloquence and truth that rests all around you. Through an exploration of visceral abstractions (language reason and beauty to name a few) infused with carefully constructed and unique questioning you will revive the thoughts that the prudent act of philosophy calls for. With this relationship to life's principles you can therein communicate the human condition know clearly what to value and develop an enthusiasm for the world in return. From here a comprehensive experience of self can emerge.</p><p></p><p><strong><em>May Contain Truth</em> invites you on this critical yet metaphysical experience of passion and curiosity.</strong></p>
