Third Escape from Nihilism

We should not extend our conception of reason and meaning of life to look for it at the end. It should be sought here or at least from within life itself. Because when it is gone, nihilism reaches for its own throat, suffocating itself. So it fails to explain anything and hence even its proposition is worthless.
So stay conscious and look at the wealth of meaning implicit in our existence.

The Second Escape from Nihilistic Absurd

If I see myself from outside the box. Look at myself as a figure in history, even admitting that it will all end in the absurd, no meaning or purpose that remains I still get to look at the whole thing in this imaginary way as a Grand Tragedy. As the birth of tragedy, from music and poetry, tragedy can be enjoyed in the same way rain is comforting when we experience it from the cosy and dry  habitat of a home. Tragedy is also a reason to live life joyously, passionately as its meaning.
