Could someone try to summarize this guys thoughts for me? I read Zarathustra once years ago but it's the only thing I've read of his and I don't think I picked up much of what it meant to say, maybe some bits and pieces (even if you don't understand it it is a pretty enjoyable read). I'm under the impression that a core thing is that the morality that we've been handed down is for a world that is no more (and that this is what it means that "God is dead"), and that therefore we must seek new morality that fits our new life.

Nietzsche's philosophy speaks to me and I'd like to be able to take it to heart but I'm just too weak to apply anything he says.

The affirmation of life requires a great deal of inner strength.
