The Absurd
The absurd to me, is the denial of the necessary. The world's unwillingness to yield to logic, and value. The world's inability to provide for its progeny. It is foundationless structures, and formless forms. It is purposeless striving, urgent intensity, and arbitrary passion. Its deterministic freedom, original sameness, and dead spirits. Its hollow solidity, isolated unity -- it is hope and despair.
It is life, it is death.
So what do we do about it? All answers that do not heartily embrace it are windmills in a hurricane. To deny it, what it denies us seems just, but it is a petty, child-like justice of spite. It lacks the magnanimity of a more mature justice. I say embrace it! Pull the absurd in close, and laugh. Laugh at yourself, laugh at the world. Laugh with joy and acceptance. Let the laughter echo from the finite edges of the boundless, and resonate with it; for we may not laugh last, we tiny creatures, but we may laugh best.
