Hey! Taking the chance to get drenched in existential literature is quite a challenge! I think that it can be both enlightening and scary. Because wondering about existence itself, how and if it serves a higher purpose, has always fascinated the sensitive souls .

our very disposition in life should be one of always seeking, always looking, never holding opinions in such a rigid way as to never change them

This was a great lesson from your second book and I think it is the recipe for peace. Holding an idea about how a thing should be is a sure pill for disappointment. This does not mean not to have an idea but the flexibility of holding that idea should be helping us and not hinder us. In the end we want to feel peace in life. And feeling peace is not always the same with being right all the time. I liked the choices that you showed me in here , you have made me curious about your PhD I am wondering what did you pick to study. Your writing is superb, I can sniff and feel the millions of book pages what have washed your eyes :) It was a delight to read you and thank you for the entry. If you feel you desire to also make a long post make sure you mention and leave me a link, I would not want to miss it!
