LOOKING AT NIETZSCHE AND HIS CRITQUE AGAINST THE `’REAL” AND “APPARENT” WORLD
IS THERE ONLY ONE WORLD? IF SO WHICH ONE ARE WE LIVING IN?
IS A HOLIDAY A FORM OF AN ILLUSION?
ARE WE BORN INTO A CULTURE OF ESCAPISM?
IN OUR ESCAPISM CAN WE STILL FIND TRUTH?
The Schopenhauerian man voluntarily takes upon himself the suffering involved in being truthful.’
The quote is bound up with Nietzsche’s view that most people don’t like seeing reality as it is, i.e. the one and only reality there is. People prefer all the illusions, which the apparent world gives us by way of hope that we will enter the real true world where everything will be alright; for example heaven or even on holidays.
