Summary
Have the courage to use your mind! These are the existential questions: “Who am I?” - “What can I know?” - “What should I do?” - “What can I hope for?” (Immanuel Kant) that need to be considered: “Adaptability, resilience and solidarity are required”. With 38 pages of notes as references and sources, this time-agnostic, challenging, active and positive study becomes a source for being and becoming. There are numerous suggestions and calls to action!
