Pearls of Wisdom

Telos

9/19/2014

 
Picture
Everything that we do in this life, we do for a purpose, there is an end goal, a culmination, or a  "Telos". This life (and perhaps the many others) that we will live all build on top of one another, resembling a tower, we are trying to reach something, we are trying to get to the end of the race.  We live in a very teleological way, that is, we think there is a final cause or a final end, that our day will come and we will reach the "divine" nature of ourselves, but in fact we are only reaching the next "story" of our tower, where it goes no one knows. Each story has an end but also each story a beginning, which leads me to believe there is a paradox about beginnings and endings.
