Living Life The Right Way...
Fredrich Nietzsche summed it up well when he said "You have your way. I have mine. As for the right way, the correct way and the only way, it does not exist!"
I love the print image, brilliant moustache. How in ever could he politely have a flat white. I agree with him absolutely. Still, the implication is that there is always a way and I like that too.
Nietzsche's family were Lutheran & Protestant ministers & scholars but while at university he challenged these Christian foundations & traditional moralities & instead chose Nihilism & Existentialism philosophies both of which say 'God is dead'. His thinking moved on to Postmodernism - hence the blog statement. I prefer the Thestic philosophy & the guidelines of living called 'The Ten Commandments'. Temper this with Nietzsche's 'life-affirmation' idea, central to his philosophy, which honestly questions all doctrines however socially prevalent - I like that combination.

ReplyDeleteI think he had quite a few flat whites, hence the wonderful frothy moustache but I could be wrong...
