-------------- FIND MEANING! --------------
PSA for all you Post-Modernists
The problem with Nihilism is that it doesn't mean anything.
And the fact that it doesn't mean anything, doesn't mean anything - unless you invest great meaning in meaninglessness.
Moreover, if you do dare make such a meaningless investment, you have given it meaning thus nullifying its very foundational claim.
Furthermore, your embracing and supporting it becomes a foolish act since the very core of its belief claims that you do not exist to embrace and support it, much less think about it.
Life only becomes meaningless for you when that is the meaning you assign to it.
It's a cowardly act that selfishly proclaims that nothing
you think, say or do matters and it requires you to deny your
responsibility for both finding meaning and investing your total life
force toward meaninglessness to assure that meaninglessness is honored
in every breath you take.
Conversely, to believe and then claim that your life matters demands you make it matter no matter what you encounter that indicates otherwise.
When you do, you'll live a life worth living; even if it's just for you.
Referenced:
Nihilism
1) the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.
In Philosophy
2) extreme skepticism maintaining that nothing in the world has a real existence.

-------------- THINK! --------------
Knowledge
is not Wisdom; it's "inventory."
Imagine a world where minds were
disciplined well-enough
to think wisely.
This was the intent behind raising adults.

-------------- THE MASSES --------------
"A
considerable percentage
of the people we meet on the street
are people
who are empty inside,
that is, they are actually already dead.
It is
fortunate for us
that we do not see and do not know it.
If we knew what a
number of people are actually dead
and what a number of these dead
people govern our lives,
we should go mad with horror."

-------------- IMMATURE HEARTS --------------
It was not their skills or brains
that made the Ruffians' Ashlars Rough.
It was their HEARTS.
They didn't do the EA Work.
Hence, they did the FC
Work
on an Improperly and Ill-Prepared Foundation.
That is also what
Made them so Dangerous.
Empowered Brains Governed by Immature Hearts
are
a Recipe for Civil Disharmony at Best.
-------------- SANITY --------------
How sane is it to label something "secret"
if everyone knows about it?
if everyone knows about it?

This is why I am still very careful when I do talks on this book.
