Old Man: Has the time come? What has it all meant?
Young Woman: The old are like decaying food: soft and smelly.
What proceeds death? Heaven or nothingness? If heaven exists where can its boundaries be drawn? For some, there is a very thin line that distinguishes heaven and purgatory. In this case, the line is a bit thicker, and the other side of the physical world is a bit more vague in its interpretation.
Death is a product of time; time elicits death, for time causes aging, decay, causality of death-inducing events, etc.
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd dimensions are characterized by space. In a simple sense, the 4th dimension can be considered simply "time," but to be more concise, it is more-so "space-time" since time is dependent upon the movement of spatial objects to give reference to time. The physical world is characterized as space. The world changes because it is a space of transience due to its interference by time; time elicits death; all physical entities born within the world are born to die. But death—not simply human death, more-so the recycling of energy—is superseded by the response of birth, and thus life returns to its origin. For every death there is a birth. Existing is not simply an endeavor of the mind, body, soul, etc., but one of perpetual consciousness manifested in all things. It is a constant. To exist is to have existed, to exist now, and to exist forever.

Our friend Gjermund looks a little hostile here. But he is actually explaining his take on existentialism, and in particular Kierkegaard.
"Who am I, Kylie? "Why a fox? Why not a horse, or a beetle, or a bald eagle? I'm saying this more as, like, existentialism, you know? Who am I? And how can a fox ever be happy without, you'll forgive the expression, a chicken in its teeth?"
from the mouth of the great Fantastic Mr. Fox
In the emptiness of this isolated gas station, a sign reading "You Are Nowhere" stands as both a literal statement and a profound metaphor. The barren landscape stretches endlessly, echoing a feeling of aimless wandering in life’s vast spaces. Captured by Duncan Rawlinson, this image invites us to ponder the paradox of feeling both lost and omnipresent—nowhere yet everywhere, all at once. The quiet stillness of the scene, punctuated only by a solitary yellow truck, offers a moment of existential reflection on where we truly stand in the world, both physically and mentally.

A lonely road disappearing into the unknown, where distance, silence, and time merge into a reflection on impermanence and the inevitable end of every journey.
Sing like you think no one's listening
You would kill for this
Just a little bit
Just a little bit
You would, you would
Sing me something soft
Sad and delicate
Or loud and out of key
Sing me anything
We're glad for what we've got
Done with what we've lost
Our whole lives laid out
Right in front of us

They asked for the threesome experience and then we told them they ran the risk of being allocated Room 6 like all couples do. To their credit they asked to be allocated Room 6 anyway and this is moment before their lives changed forever for the better!
More historical alliteration than any modern existentialism.
Have we lost you there?

SECRET SIX
i'm always battling the nihilist inside of me. i do believe in existentialism, but there is always a part of me that thinks that we have no purpose. i refuse to fully believe that, though. we all have a purpose, we just have to make it happen for our own selves.
ps- this secret came about an hour early, because ill be extremely busy all day tomorrow.<3
Following a particularly disastrous morning walk that made me wonder why I carried a camera, we made our way through town to Peveril Point. It is one of my favourite places and tends to be reasonably quiet.
Far out to sea the Sandwich Terns were fishing, leaving the Rock Pipits to keep us company while I did some much needed target practise on the Herring Gulls.

Periodically there will be a photo from Mars which the sharer purports is some object of meaning. Of course it's all just rock and our imagination. And now they claim there is water on mars And if so what--The potential to become in several billion earth years something akin to the march of Western world? It will be as meaningless as those objects now being shared of the red planet.

Lyrics on Paper called
"Existentialism on Prom Night"
By Straylight Run
Pencil on Paper by Mark Walz 2006
"A 'presence' to which we are faithful, is not all the same thing as the carefully 'preserved effigy' of an object which has vanished...".
(G. Marcel, "The philosophy of existentialism")
(Presenza vs somiglianza - Una 'presenza' a cui siamo fedeli, non è la stessa cosa come il conservare con cura l' 'effige di un oggetto' che è sparito)

I found out my Bishop's daughter passed away. Multiple sets of friends have been trying to have kids and can't. And, today is my daughters birthday. This morning we sat on the couch watching Blues Clues. We snacked on a big bag of M&Ms and talked about the difference from her purple pony named Rarity and the pink one named Berry something. And, if becoming like God requires giving away one of my children for the world, then I'm not ready for that.
Illustration on the concept of existentialism - you are the one controlling your destiny and no one else.
L'angoscia rivela alla coscienza la nostra libertà e testimonia la costante modificabilità del progetto iniziale. Nell'angoscia non ci limitiamo a renderci conto del fatto che i possibili da noi progettati sono costantemente rosi dalla nostra libertà in attuazione, ma comprendiamo inoltre la scelta, ossia noi stessi, come ingiustificabili; il che vuol dire che ci rendiamo conto che la scelta non trae origine da alcuna realtà anteriore, ed è anzi, tale da dover fungere da fondamento dell'insieme dei significati che costituiscono la realtà. In tal modo siamo costantemente impegnati nella scelta di noi stessi e costantemente consapevoli di poter bruscamente rovesciare la scelta ed invertire la rotta. Siamo pertanto sotto la costante minaccia della nullificazione della nostra scelta attuale, sotto la costante minaccia di divenire altri da ciò che siamo. Proprio per il fatto di essere assoluta, la nostra scelta è fragile.
Jean-Paul Sartre
