✨ Captain Compton believes in humanity's potential and the duty one has to pursue one’s best self and navigate one’s best life. "The unexamined life is a life not worth living," and only through examination can we captain our complex Ship of Theseus through these ever-churning 21st-century waters.

The music makes it really hard to pay attention so i'm glad it stopped eventually but other than that i loved the video. I'm newish to Philosophy and you explain everything very succinctly and easy to understand. Subscribed! Looking forward to more. :)

One of my favourite quotes from Victor Frankln is this: Life is not primarily a quest for pleasure, as Freud believed, or a quest for power, as Alfred Adler taught, but a quest for meaning. The greatest task for any person is to find meaning in his or her life. Frankl saw three possible sources for meaning: in work (doing something significant), in love (caring for another person), and in courage during difficult times. I have since come to discover that meaning as Victor Frankl understands it is the final illusion one ought to dispel. I believe that once a person is in confluence with nature and not his ideals or his desires, meaning isnt a consideration. Eastern philosophy such as the Tao and Nietzsche's philosophy of Amor Fati come closest to this.

that is quite profound. And this doesn't sound like radical acceptance or anything, just a happy realization about how we're so addicted to ideals and desires. A rather stoic take as well.

If only morality was really a human need :) I think you snuck that one in :) Greta video, btw!

I guess the word "need" is tricky. What I think I need or what do you think I need? :)

@polymathpark 4 ай бұрын

It's absolutely a human need, and often needs to be taught (blank slate/tabula rasa model). Thanks! Definitely read "man's search for meaning" too, it's a legendary book and I think you'll like it.

@@polymathpark I don't think it's an individual need but we all need other humans to practice morality. That's what I meant.

If I lived alone on a deserted island, there would be no need for morality but if there was another human on the island, that person would need me to practice it :)
