im reading alot about Existentialism,Idealism,Humanism,nihilism,agnosticism
interesting stuff...

i fully believe in idealism

Idealism is an approach to philosophical enquiry which asserts that everything is of a mental nature. An Idealist either asserts that only minds and the objects of mind exist, or that everything is composed of mental realities

and i also believe very strongly in nihilism

Nihilism is a philosophical position which argues that the world, and especially human existence, is without objective meaning, purpose, comprehensible truth, or essential value. Nihilists generally assert some or all of the following: there is no reasonable proof of the existence of a higher ruler or creator, a "true morality" is unknown, and secular ethics are impossible;therefore, life has no truth, and no action is known to be preferable to any other

and i am agnostic.

Agnosticism is the philosophical view that the value of certain claims as truth-particularly theological claims regarding the existence of God, gods, or deities-are unknown, inherently unknowable, or incoherent and thus irrelevant to life

There are no facts, only interpretations.

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

"I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth."

we as human beings refuse to accept that life is meaningless. even though it really is. we seek meaning in love. in realtionships, in sports,in working among other things.
we use diversions to escape from our boredoms. from our fears. from our insecurities. love is a diversion. happiness is a diversion.
sadness and pain are also diversions. in reality pain doesnt exist. neither does being happy.
there is no reality. its all subjective. we fool ourself's that something is real. take sex for example. good sex you orgasm.
eating something you enjoy or listening to a song you love is like a mini orgasm. therefore couldnt doing a favorite activity be sex?
in bad sex u dont orgasm.so could it be that it isnt sex? or is sex the simple act of penetration?

life is about chaos in in its purest form.

People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.

One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.

In the beautiful, man sets himself up as the standard of perfection; in select cases he worships himself in it. . . . Man believes that the world itself is filled with beauty - he forgets that it is he who has created it. He alone has bestowed beauty upon the world - alas! only a very human, an all too human, beauty

Nietzsche qoutes

In heaven all the interesting people are missing.

Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.

For believe me: the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and greatest enjoyment is - to live dangerously.

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
