I havent read much, I used to read alot as a child but school made me hate it. I now struggle alot when it comes to reading but literature and music are the only mediums I want to explore, i made an effort to try and get into reading again during winter 2023 somewhere and started with 1984 by George Orwell. Many themes resonated with me particularly when it came to language and thought control. Wouldnt really say it resonated deeply with me on a personal level doe.
Two authors that did deeply resonate with me however would be Friederich Nietzsche and Yukio Mishima I dont know how I could explain my feelings towards them other than they felt like 'soul mates' reading Spring Snow by Mishima like every 20 pages or so almost, it would bring forth tears due to how deeply sentiments and themes would resonate with me. I havent finished it cus I lost the book..... I really need to go check out the local library and ask if they got it.
I dont know what to say about Nietzsche, firstly I love the project he sets out on and that project would be combating nihilism he saw creeping into western society. Secondly as he was plagued with chronic illness especially later in his life a much worse affliction than affects me. People can get many different things out of him and interpret him in vastly different ways, but to me I found his philosophy inspiring uplifting and beautiful and alot of it already felt familiar to me conclusions ive reached to questions and sentiments I had, I found explored on a much deeper and complex level. That is not to say I thought like him just that parts of his philosophy closely resembled how I already thought about and viewed the world.
