Existentialism is very interesting because it deals with the undeniable fact of our life and question our very existence as it poses the most important question human ever ask of why are we here? Why are we born?

Existentialism is very deep in meaning as it poses the most important question in which no human being was able to answer. However people have differents ways of apporaching this question, and they have different view on the meaning of their existence therefore there is no absolute answer to this question. Eventhough the answer to this question will remain a mystery, but existentialism also introduced us to the idea of angst, absurdity, despair, anxiety, and death which is the fact of life we can't avoid. These ideas they introduced are very interesting and realistic as it deals with the real human's nature. It is true that no one can escape death as it comes to everyone with equality. It is also undeniable that we all faced anxiety or despair once during the course of our life. So this is what this perspective is about-dealing with the truth of human's life and use that knowledge to create a better understanding of ourself. From learning about existentialism, I hoped to learned more about myself by learning about the human's nature itself first.
