I am The Dark Wanderer
I have grown disillusioned with dogmas and absolutism. With rules and commandments whit little relation to actual life and no foundation in logic or common sense.
Like Sartre, I have come to the realisation we must make and live by our own morals which we express by our actions.
Such a moral code for my own use must be based on these principles:
Cause and effect
Instinct
Empathy
The will to power
Survival
Noncompliance with absolutism and dogma, but adherence to a middle way. Where no extreme view is held.
The pursuit of happiness, both internal and external.
So, I am looking for help in developing a guideline from which to live by.
