Purpose
German: Zweck
Common meaning:
Intention, goal, the reason for something’s existence or action
Clear meaning:
The projection of meaning into time—not direction, but the self’s attempt to assign value to now by reaching outside it.
Purpose seems like orientation,
but structurally, it is a substitute for trust.
It arises
when the self believes
that being requires justification
to be valid.
True expression needs no purpose—
it is complete
without needing to become anything.
Purpose is not meaning—
it is the shadow
of the fear that meaning can’t simply be.
