Philosophy Life is Absurd
Introduction
When considering the absurd in philosophy, it entails the existing conflict between the tendency of an individual to seek inherent value and meaning in life and mo importantly the inability to find any due to most importantly real lack of definition of a particular value. As a result, absurd in this case does not necessarily mean all about humanity impossible. Typically, the universe and also the human mind do not each on its conclusion to absurd, but the absurd will significantly arise particularly by the contradictory nature of two simultaneously that may be existing in one way or another. Other than that, absurdist also seeks to explore more about the fundamental kind of absurd and most important ideas in which a specified individual, once becomes conscious particularly of stupid and should, therefore, provide a response to it in general. In this case, absurdist will, therefore, share some of its concepts, and also a common theoretical template mainly with existentialism and nihilism (Smuts, Adams, Taliaferro, Adams, Adams, Alston & Baier, 2018). In this case, the absurd can, therefore, is considered to be arising mostly out of the fundamental disharmony between the search of a specified individual particularly form the meaning and the meaninglessness of the universe in general.
In this case, I firmly believe and support that life is absurd. Typically, people tend to say that life is ridiculous. But on the other, it is not always clear in consideration to the exact case in consideration to what people mean in this case (Holmes, 2018). In this case, we can, perhaps consider life an absurd and therefore regard that a good thing. Typically, what result to making life ridiculous is not necessarily the fact that what different aspects matter to people now will have a significant probability not to mater sometime in the future of these individuals. The main reason, in this case, is the fact that people tend to lack any idea or a good reason to be thinking that different things that may be mattering to them now would be most likely to be mattering or even will only have to mater in cases where they also questioned in the future. Other than that, if a particular aspect does not matter particularly in the future, there it means that what will happen in the future cannot have any meaning now. Similarly, it will also fail to matter now whether what matters now will even matter after that in the future.
In this case, neither is what will significantly result in making life absurd is mainly the fact that people will die, or even the fact that people are small and also insignificant. This case is primarily considered when people are compared mostly to the enormous size regarding the universe (Tartaglia, 2015). Generally, if life is absurd now, then it means that it will also be silly if by any chance people lived considerably forever or even longer or if they are big enough in a way that they can significantly fill the world in one way or another. In this case, I firmly believe that what people do in their lives will significantly lead to a lot of things in their lives.
In this case, people need to go on and carry with their lives and most importantly to continue with treating things as essential and most importantly form a fair spectator point of view. Life can be absurd particularly in two different ways. First, presence can be considered as pretty meaningless. The second sense of absurd is mainly irrational. In this case, life seems not to make any sense (Boden, Feldman, Fischer, Hare, Hume, Joske & Luper, 2016). Typically, the universe is small, and as a result, it is so immense. In the case, it raises a question of how comes people are alive while the same time, the entire universe is dead. As a result, life, in this case, can be felt as being anomaly particularly to the norm of material existences.
Conclusion
As a result, I firmly believe that life is absurd. In this case, we can consider life as having no objective meaning, and as a result, there is no reason for any individuate think that they can significantly provide or give life any purpose at all. Similarly, people continue to live and should, therefore, respond not with despair or defiance but most importantly with smiles that are ironic (Robinson & Groves, 2014). Life is therefore not as important and means full as people may have once suspected which at the same time cannot be considered as the cause for sadness in general. As a result, people need to understand and find each of these aspects as essential in one way or another and effectively understand more about life in general.
