The Existentialist

About the Artist

I am human, just like you. I have been around for almost 20 years and although it may not be a lot of time to some, it feels like I’ve been alive forever.

To cope with all the things my life has given me; good and bad, I’ve always been a writer. Maybe I didn’t know or necessarily want to be a writer, but I was always on the creative side, not really understanding how different I was from others; I’m not that different from you.

To this day I’m still eager to learn more about myself, to improve and grow amorphously. I want to use this fuel of constant self-discovery as the direct source of energy that can create whatever I want it to, making writing for me a healthier coping mechanism than most I’ve tried in my lifetime.

I believe that starting my blog, The Existentialist website, I finally have the opportunity and creative outlet to unleash my passion for art, writing.

The beginning is never easy, and it won’t get much easier I am aware. I can only believe in myself and keep my expectations to a minimum; I like to believe I hold no expectations, but they seem unavoidable.

To whoever reads this, I’m not one to care about views or reads, I won’t encourage/pressure you to read my work because for me, the thrill really comes from just making a finished piece of work I’m happy with, regardless of if it is read by others or not; judgement from others is what I’ve feared all my life.

I can only encourage you to have an open mind as a reader and believe in me as much as I believe in myself to accumulate the courage to start showing my creative writing(art) to the world.

Everybody creates things in their lifetime, I am just another one of those beings; whether you like it or not, nouns (persons, places and ‘things’) exist to teach us something about ourselves. There is always more to learn…

About The Existentialist

I started this website as an outlet for my thoughts and the art I create. My main goal here is to help others think about the world different. See life in a different perspective and possibly learn something new. I am constantly creating a new meaning of life and what it means for me to exist and learn about the world through a philosophical lens.

I write about a variety of topics… from my personal life experiences to philosophical theories and homemade recipes. I keep existentialism* in mind when I write and am always looking to learn new things...

*For those who are unfamiliar with existentialism… to put it simply, it is the study of existence, through existing, being human. Also, the belief that our individual freedom, choices and experiences create our individual meaning of life. I personally believe this to be true; human beings do change through experience, their individual choices and actions through freedom; free will, the ability to choose.
