My Ego is dead, lit. Everything is relative, there is no imperative to be anything, other than for the Ego's sake. Art is hollow, a reflection of mankind in a shallow pond. Even philosophy fails, since there is no reason to simply accrue truth - hoarding, and then honing knowledge and understanding can only enhance reality so much, without the Ego.
Any books, or insight to prove me wrong? I've looked to metaphysics and Kierkegaard's Leap of Faith, but other than this, is there any salvation? Am I missing part of the point of philosophy; is truth a higher calling?
