Explorations of Philosophy and Existentialism

Oh, the uncertainty of being,

A question that we keep on fleeing.

What is the purpose of our lives?

Do we merely exist or do we thrive?

Philosophy asks the big questions,

What is the nature of our obsessions?

What is right and what is wrong?

And how do we know where we belong?

Existentialism asks us to confront,

The absurdity of life that we often shunt.

What meaning can we find in our existence,

In a world that seems to lack any coherence?

We ponder the nature of our existence,

And the depth of our own persistence.

Are we merely actors on a cosmic stage,

Living out our lives on a grander page?

The search for answers continues on,

As we contemplate the meaning of our dawn.

Philosophy and existentialism guide our way,

As we seek to understand life day by day.
