Of what do nihilists hold dear, if not bound by “god”. We hold no compulsion to virtue to consummate reward, we openly reject religious belief. We don’t adhere to loyalties. Such sheer illogical movements dilute existentialist life. A nihilist rejects the fundament of value, it is only in the preservations of the mind does and idea possess value. It is an empty perspective. One not dictated by ordinance and one more logical than temptation. It is one of those who see an empty world, and no reason to question it.

You have the choice to conceive meaning, or not, but either way you wouldn’t question inherent meaning, its utterly absurd. Every day I find amusement in my yearnings. I strive for knowledge, seeking satisfaction from resolving curiosity. In this pursuit, I reach for the absolute and ultimate knowledge, one that understands everything and nothing. This goal breaches even the depths of my heart, where it unseemingly lives, harmoniously with the understanding that I truly don’t care if I reach my goal or not. In my eyes, I see that in death I will be tandem with knowledge, ad infinitum, or not yearn for it at all, both leading to a state not of
