Yes, I did search up the dictionary definition of caring. According to my dear friend Oxford Languages, it’s “to feel concern or interest; to attach importance to something.” Unfortunately, that’s not exactly what my question entails.

Recently I was reading about phenomenology, and I find it particularly interesting. When I was studying Husserl, however, I found that I didn’t like the argument he made against psychologism.

Risk and reward are a part of life. Nothing we do is 100% for certain, and all of us know that. But do you ever consider what level of risk you should be taking? In a previous post, I talked about gambling with money, but what about risk taking as a whole? Obviously, the way Read more

Metaphysics is an interesting area of study for a few reasons, mainly because you can’t necessarily prove anything in it. You can’t prove that reality is real and you can’t prove that the truth is true. Obviously, humans are limited in their view of the world, so we obviously can’t answer questions outside of that Read more
