but I still don't like it..., lets try this

"""WILL"""




You are quite advanced Schwammel.

Emmanuel Kant said that one cannot know the thing in itself, but a thing in itself (neumenon) must nevertheless exist.

Subsequent philosophers have identified the neumenon with will. Nietzsche (will to power), Schopenhauer (will to live), James (will to believe). There are others. Nevertheless, one must ascertain his purpose. Is your purpose perhaps to find the meaning of your will?

I only have one question
and when its answered I won't exist...

I'm only a subset of a set; that will never allow me a/to exist.,
