Status Updates From The Meaning of Life

after camus we read nagel’s the absurd and gowan’s the buddha’s message!! both really insightful and overall i do like absurdism as a way to look at life but not really as a philosophical school of thought; it just seems obvious to me that things do, in fact, matter lots in life. buddhism on the other hand i could get behind, seems pretty fire.

reading for class!!! first chapter we read was schopenhauer’s “on the sufferings of the world” and it was my first time reading any Old German Philosophy. we shall see how the rest of this goes.

Such a drag to get through honestly. This is used for some university philosophy courses and boy does it give that. Some interesting essay within that helped me during a time where I’m questioning the meaning of life. But! I think there are better contemporary works out there that cover the same material
