Showing results for "paradox" in Consciousness & Thought

We are all living an existence that none of us chose and none of us truly understand. Naturally, everything can—at times—feel strange, chaotic, and overwhelming. The Art of Living an Absurd Existence helps us find peace with this; it instructs us on how to embrace and appreciate the mystery; and it breaks us free from reductive ways of thinking so that we can embark on our own absurd journey with openness and wonder.

Unreal Reality: The Paradox of Existence is a lucid and unflinching exploration of reality, illusion, and the ethical demands of being. Blending philosophy, science, and reflective clarity, this book journeys through the shifting ground beneath perception, memory, identity, and knowledge. It challenges the need for certainty, confronts the limits of understanding, and insists that meaning can—and must—be forged even when truth remains out of reach.

From the moment we are incarnated—from the first breath to the last—we are unraveling. The forces that sustain us are the very forces that undo us. Oxygen nourishes and corrodes. Water gives life and drowns. Fire warms and devours. Love makes us whole and tears us apart. The universe does not merely allow contradiction—it is built upon it. Yet, beneath the surface of these scientific truths lies something deeper—the philosophy of the divine. If existence is intentional, if consciousness is no accident, then this paradox is no mere cosmic coincidence.

Once upon a time, I thought strength meant being unshakable. Stoic. Unmoved. The human equivalent of a marble monument to toughness—minus the abs. Society loves to feed us this outdated, steel-jawed fantasy that vulnerability is weakness, that strength is about never cracking, never faltering, never feeling.
