I want to learn a philosophy that is focus on the true Self, the human condition where there is no right or wrong but only our own perception to what is right and what is wrong. Of course this kind of thinking is dangerous to society because it is a threat to any organized government.

Plato Republic shines light on the human condition saying that if one were to have a ring that makes one invisible, one will cheat, lie and still. Ayn Rand writes on the human psyche in her book the virtues of selfishness, which is a commentary of Atlas Shrugged Machiavelli talks about the ends justify the means and that men will morn more for the lost of their fortunes than the lost of their own fathers. I am currently reading Nietzsche and it is eye opening.

Do you know of any texts that will bring me to the truth? I know it will be hard to find, maybe even banned from the public, but please point me in the right direction. I don't want philosophy that focus on the commonwealth, just the true self

I have been using the internet to search for this book, but unfortunately I remember so little about it that I am stumped.

This book was written about a black girl who lived with her mother. I think they were former slaves, and they worked for a white family. Anyway, when she was small the girl didn't know she was black, and I remember a scene where she got in a group photograph with the white children, and when they got the picture back she asked "who is that little black girl?" or something to that effect.

The only other part I remember is there is a flood and her boyfriend/husband (I think?) saves her from being killed but in the process he gets bit by a dog. He gets rabies and eventually dies. I remember a part where she's trying to give him water and he keeps saying it's poisoned, because of his rabies.

~Thanks in advance!

I'm a beginner, do you think that's why? It feels like I have a lump in my throat.
Is there a way to stop my throat from hurting? Thanks to those who reply!

Do you prefer to work with passion or do you need challenge to get going? Personally I like passion and doing things my way and with my pace. I know this is a kind of hindrance while working for other people.

How are you coping your life in terms of passion and challenge? What are your thoughts?

I need to write a book about my life. Basically how I felt and how hard it was for me when I came from my native country to United States.
How should I start writting? And also, what should I write exactly?

I really need someone's help because I've never done this before.
Thank you so much for your effort <33
