      @hoaithu . He is right, he has been here for too long and has just posted his first post, while commenting a lot.
      Thanks @dmwh, Nice to meet you. I also just followed you & after reading your introduction I think you are also a follower existentialism.

        Hi. Thanks for commenting.

        existentialism

        n.
        A philosophy that emphasizes the uniqueness and isolation of the individual experience in a hostile or indifferent universe, regards human existence as unexplainable, and stresses freedom of choice and responsibility for the consequences of one's acts.
        n.
        a philosophical theory or attitude having various interpretations, generally emphasising the existence of the individual as a unique agent with free will and responsibility for his or her own acts, though living in a universe devoid of any certain knowledge of right and wrong; from one's plight as a free agent with uncertain guidelines may arise feelings of anguish. Existentialism is concerned more with concrete existence rather than abstract theories of essences; is contrasted with rationalism and empiricism; and is associated with Kierkegaard, Heidegger and Sartre, as well as others.

        I like to avoid labels as much as possible. All of the ISMs sound great in theory but as soon as we start defining ourselves we end up leaving something out. However, there are several things in this definition that I agree with. Primarily, in this world, everything is relative and therefore good/bad is up to the individual. Also, I take 100% responsibility for where I find myself in life. It's not possible to be a co-creator and victim at the same time.

        So, for example, I used to follow @haejin's work a couple years ago when I joined Steem, since I also have done quite a bit of trading and technical analysis and have seen people really master the market using TA. At that time, he seemed to really be interested in helping people learn to trade. After HF21, I downvoted a few of his posts so in turn it looks like he's decided to send me some downvote love. And, as the creator of my experience I am 100% responsible for that. In retrospect, I have to say that my downvoting crossed the line of my guideline that "No attack is ever justified" so I can Thank him for reminding me of that!

        Each existential philosopher has different interpretations in their own way. And I selected some of their views to guide myself, not all. I especially liked Nietzsche's "surhomme" and Sartre's "nausea".
        But I was more influenced by Lao Tzu than existentialism, Fortunately, I see many similarities between existentialism and Lao Tzu's way.

        Each of our actions is our own path of choice. So, you are great when you are responsible for your actions. And with dictatorial viewpoint and collective ownership, it is rare to have such people. :( In my country, almost no one has resigned due to their mistakes. LOL ... :)

        Thank you for your insights, my friend. I have a pocket copy of the Tao Te Ching which I used to randomly open and see what message it had for me. I going to start doing that again.
