existentialism

Begin with a question. A question of why?
Requiring a significant amount of justification of proof or logic reasoning.

Because.

Why must we be so self assured?
Why do we need to know who we are?
Is it because uncertainty is a sign of weakness?
Or that it will create a disrupted and confused mass of individuals?

All looking, all searching.

For themselves; who they are, who they want to be.

Maybe the answer to these questions is not so straightforward. Maybe the answer to this question is a really, really extended metaphor of life; the answer to self discovery.
Life is self discovery.

New friends, old friends, foes, girlfriends, boyfriends, acquaintances, likes, dislikes, memories, victories, losses, journeys, inspiration.
Everything in life shapes who we are.

So if we don't find ourselves, we find ourselves to be undefined and completely undefinable.


My name is Ashleigh, and that's all I'm really certain.
