 REVENGE

REVENGE

It is difficult to discover the truth, because everything is relative and any truth can be transformed into a semi"truth. Plato stated: "We are within a reality that is also within us". Starting from this statement, the only way to find it is by knowing our interior. In the temple of Delphi it was written: γνῶθι σεαυτόν, "Know yourself", well"known expression of Socrates. We care about the outside world and we leave our interior imprisoned between feelings and imitations that are not our own ... Fashion, religion, good and bad, politics, social behavior and so many others ... Our true SELF is buried and with it our true self. What a sad reality...

You Will Regret Rejecting Me

You Will Regret Rejecting Me

"Under conditions that are always already shaping you." He drove for a while before speaking. “I've been thinking about the same problem from the other side. Whether anything I feel in your presence is mine or the stronghold's reading of a convergence it was designed to facilitate." He continued after a pause, "I keep finding that the question assumes the two are separable. That there's a version of me that exists outside the systems that built me, and I just need to locate it." His hands adjusted on the wheel. "I don't think that version exists. I think I am what twelve years of building a court and living in that territory have made me, and I can either act from that honestly or I can keep

Fighter Luna's Shifted Fate

Fighter Luna's Shifted Fate

"Now, I want to know what a young lady like yourself believes she should rely on to stand in this world." I took a deep breath. "In this world, father, brother, husband and children, all have involuntary hearts, bodies, and selves," I replied steadily. "Mountains can collapse and the earth can split. Only oneself, never betrays oneself!" Elder Morgan stared at me, speechless. These weren't the words of a docile young woman. These were the words of someone who had suffered greatly. "Where did you learn such ideas?" she asked finally, her voice softer.

The others fell in line. “I'm done eating,” I announced and was standing up. “Freya,” Tobias came after me. “I can't eat there, the place is too—- not what I'm used to,” I told him. “Am I really that selfish?” I asked him as we climbed up to his room. “Every living organism is selfish,” he explained, “it's self-love, and if we don't have that, others will trample on us.” “I think mine is too much,” I muttered.

The Witch And The Alpha

The Witch And The Alpha

“I think I was afraid before that if people stopped talking to me, I would stop existing.” The forest dims softly. Not with panic. Memory. The difference matters. “And now?” Ilyra asks. The entity is silent for several seconds. Long enough that the forest shifts gently around contemplation instead of anxiety. Remarkable. “Now I think,” it says slowly, “I would still exist. I just wouldn’t know what that existence meant.” There it is. Identity independent from observation. The beginning of self-continuity. I feel genuine concern curl through my chest for the first time in longer than I care to measure.

No Gods But Me

No Gods But Me

All my life, I had begged the heavens, begged for a name, begged for a home. Only now did I understand. A true home is the self. From this day on, whatever struggles may come my way, I stand firmly on my own two feet.

Empire of Desires - Erotic Tales of Alternative Worlds

Empire of Desires - Erotic Tales of Alternative Worlds

Even in that simple moment of its primitive simplicity, the feeling of existence such as it can throb in the depths of an animal; he was needier than the caveman; then the memory, in which it, not yet of the place where it was, but of others where it had lived and where it could be. Still, when he arrived like a help from on high to free me from the nothingness I couldn't get out of alone, all of this, it was in a second, I was passing over centuries of civilization and the confusingly glimpsed image of light bulbs through electricity, and then, wearing shirts with the collar turned upside down, they gradually recomposed the original traits of my own self. Knowing that perhaps the situation

MY REFLECTION

MY REFLECTION

" I'm Gisella Antonio and this is the story of my life. Although life wasn't so easy on me but I stood and fought an endlessly battle which I almost lost but finally won at the end. I once looked down on myself. Feeling so useless, aimless and unwanted. I felt like a curse rather than a blessing. I made the words, thoughts and feelings others had about me become "MY REFLECTION" which wasn't right. Till the day I realized what I lost feeling inferior. Today, I wrote this to encourage you not to allow what people think or say about you be your " REFLECTION" but be the " REFLECTION" of your own self. You can be whoever you wish to be when you stop listening to what people say about you and deci

The Dark Silhouette

The Dark Silhouette

She was more like a sister to me, and she was the only family I had left. In my quiet contemplation with myself, I suddenly understood that it was perfectly acceptable if the only place of refuge I can really believe right now was myself. I should not need to fixate on somebody else's better position to judge my own significance. I really do need to embrace that, at the end of each day, the only individual who can totally and utterly devote myself to me is myself. Sometimes all I want to do is maintain good relations with myself. I might not have to keep trotting up my personal different advantages and disadvantages just because somebody else seems to be doing it. And I do not always have to

The Bedevilled Soul

The Bedevilled Soul

"He is a metaphor for lowerself which is a self-serving inclination within each individual. Those who follow their lower nature are also described as his followers." I wasn't his follower. And he wasn't my master. "You know," I managed to speak, even though my voice only came out as a whisper. But the goal wasn't to scream loud enough for everyone to hear or even for h to hear, my voice was targeted towards someone else. Much more supreme than he was. "I am not weak. I'm Kerik, the most powerful one of all." More thunder sounded as I spoke, making it extremely difficult for my voice to be heard. But with all the ache my body felt, I still didn't keep quiet. I couldn't loose like that, even a

Frequently Asked Questions

Ever since I stumbled upon Camus' 'The Myth of Sisyphus' during a rainy afternoon, this question has haunted me. The absurdity of life—rolling a boulder up a hill only for it to roll back down—somehow made me laugh and despair simultaneously. But here's the twist: Camus argues that the very act of embracing this absurd struggle is the meaning. It's not about some grand cosmic answer; it's about rebellion through joy, like dancing in the face of oblivion.

Personally, I find solace in how philosophy never settles. Sartre says we're 'condemned to be free,' crafting meaning through choices, while Nietzsche whispers about becoming who we are. Maybe the meaning of my existence is just... this messy, glorious attempt to ask the question at all, over and over, like rewatching your favorite anime and finding new layers each time.
