PHILOSOPHY

I got involved in philosophy by chance. When I started to read I was told that most of the material I was reading was Existential. This was fine with me but I had no idea what they were talking about. So I decided I would look into existentialism. I didn't find much information that was to my satisfaction. It seems that the general concensus among the experts is that existenialism deals with personal existence and how an individual deals with life.


That made things even murkier for me to understand. I always thought that that was the aim of all philosphy. I still haven't figured out what makes Existentialsim so different from other philosophies. Perhaps because it teaches one to concentrate on themselves as opposed to the objective world.
