RE: How we can overcome the meaninglessness of our lives

in #depression8 years ago

Thank you for this article. The view of life which you represent here reminds me a great deal of transcendentalism.

I would even go so far as to state that it largely is transcendentalism (atleast as practiced by Henry D. Thoreau) but for the fact that the transcendentalists did recognise a God (some explicitely as God, others, like Thoreau more in an agnostic sense.

Just curious, would you agree to this view chhaylin, or do you see major differences between the two?

I hope you have enjoyed it. :) To be honest, I am not familiar with transcendentalism and Thoreau so I could not say much about it. Maybe it's a topic you can write about. I would definitely be interested in reading about such a topic.

It is an interesting idea, I must admit. I will try to write a post on transcendentalism, but don't look for it tomorrow, since it'll take some time to do at least some research. Is there any way to inform you when I would post such a topic?

I don't know how you can do that. I went to your Blog and 'followed' you. I still have to find out how I can see your posts appear in some kind of news feed or notification. :) Am still not that familiar with Steemit. Anyways, I regularly read the 'replies' section of my blog. So if you would reply to any of my posts with a link to your article, I will probably find it.

okay, in that case, just look for me in your replies :)
