Kierkegaard was prelude to Husserl and Heidegger. Why rest with him?

Such it is for all philosophers

I see people asking young kids what they’d want to become, back when we were very young, we were too , asked to categorize our selves into some profession. It was only when i grew up i realised it’s not always true for everyone to come up with their one specific category. You can be pursuing many different things you love. But i feel thats the mindset we grow up with , to be able to answer that question with some occupation you would take up when you become an adult or have that one thing figured out you will spend your entire lifetime working for.

That was something that kept me stuck for most of my life, that was what i had grown up with, purpose= profession. And i could not determine what was I made for. It’s not been long since i actively started taking action to (not find but) create my purpose.

The soul becomes what it repeatedly excuses.

Stepping off the edge and making decisions and acting, yes this has a way of clarifying things.
