Alex's Philosophy

we are waiting, alex

I believe that life is about experiencing as much as possible. Experience is the fundamental of life; there is nothing else to care
about except how you facilitate it. My goal is to live fully, and I seek to understand the world not for the sake of control, but
for the sake of bettering the life I can lead. Understanding myself, the world, and who I am makes this experience easier. I’ve
spent my life honing a unique self-awareness, feeling as though I’ve always been “Alex” in the same way since my earliest memories.
I approach the world with the idea that consciousness, like the universe itself, is an ever-shifting collection of
components—different densities of the same few things. Understanding and mastering these components, my mind and the world around
me, is my personal pursuit.

    Philosophy is the foundation of humanity and the core strength we have. We compare things and draw abstract conclusions, and it
is through this process that everything exists, from the simplest things like bread to the more complex phenomena like love and
cities. I see everything as philosophy at some level—whether it’s the love we experience or even something as trivial as games, it
all has a philosophical layer beneath it. Understanding the world is important, but it’s not just about observation. I want to
understand life in a functional way, which aligns with my deeper belief that understanding the self is key to understanding the
external world. The more I know myself, the better I can live and experience life in the way I wish to.

    At the core of everything is the pursuit of happiness. For me, happiness comes not from external measures of success, but from
experiencing life fully. This idea of living fully doesn’t mean I must try to experience every life, but that in my life, it is my
right choice to do so. I’ve always been aware of a sort of internal clock, a timer to become the person I was born to be. Though I
am still on that journey, I understand that this clock is real, and it’s what drives my every decision. It doesn’t deter me; it fuels
me. Life may not go on forever, but this urgency makes every moment valuable. The pursuit of becoming the person I am meant to be,
fueled by that awareness of time, is my guiding principle.

    I don’t seek to change the chemistry of my brain or alter my emotional state artificially. I’m not looking to shut out the emotions or
force a false sense of joy. My approach to life is about accepting and understanding my natural responses to the world—whether they’re
anger, joy, or any other feeling. The real goal is to remain in touch with who I am and to remain grounded in my authentic experience
of life. Even with the struggles my body faces, like nerve damage or physical limitations, I focus on what I can control: my mind, my
philosophy, and my path toward understanding. The purpose of life is not to avoid suffering but to experience it fully, to live as
deeply as possible, knowing that our time is finite. This is why I want to become someone who can teach others to understand themselves
and live freely, just as I aim to do.
