psychology and metaphysics

this semester has been the most thought incurring semester i have ever experienced. food for thought:


gestalt


schopenhauer: "the unriddler of humanity".

my existentialism class began the semester as my most detested class. i always thought nietzsche was incredibly pessimistic and i thought nihilism was the philosophy of alcoholics. obviously i reformed my opinion. neitzsche's writings, specifically the gay science, spoke directly to my mental health as of late.. that is to say, neitzsche cured my depression. the cure for pain, is more pain. through endurance, you find strength.
