Sarte in My Blood
I personally believe that Sarte is in my blood and in my family. My father is an entrepreneur and always talked about how he just couldn't handle being told what to do. My brother is the same way and would always end up fighting and arguing with people for what seam like absolutely no reason, including with me. He would fall victim to the Lappell du vide and would simply do stupid and otherwise mean things just to impose his freedom on people. I was always the thinker and expressed my "Sarteism" by unconsciously ignoring authority and only doing things I understood or wanted to do. I strangely would recognize other people's freedoms while also recognizing mines by agreeing that I should do something, but simply not doing it because I didn't want to and I was perfectly fine with any consequences (lol). I would hear my mother tell me to do something, not do it, and be perfectly fine with getting yelled at. I would not do homework, and be perfectly fine with getting an F, mainly because I understood that to get good grades I needed to do everything I was told, but are good grades as important to me than being free and seeking my own personal knowledge (accepting responsibility). For some strange reason, I simply cannot do something unless I completely understand everything I need to know about it and convince myself to have an interest in the outcome. In the end I completely understand the master-slave dialect, I see it everyday; so I inevitably choose to be a master while also respecting others as masters. Is this possible?
