existentialism is basically the idea that you're born first and figure out who you are later.
you aren't given a purpose or a personality that's already set in stone. you build yourself through the choices you make.
and that's both the beautiful and terrifying part. there's no instruction manual, no predetermined path, and nobody else to blame for how you choose to live.
even the smallest decisions, like the ones you make while staring at your cold coffee, can shape who you become.
life doesn't come with a meaning. you have to create one yourself.
