"There is one path in the world " - Marco M.

There is one path in the world

There is one path in the world that none can walk but you. Where does it lead? Don’t ask, walk!”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Nietzsche was not only a great philosopher but above all a great prophet. A human being capable of foresight and understanding beyond human limits. A true superhuman.

In the above sentence, with few words, he manages to convey the meaning of Life.

Every human being, whether consciously or not, creates their own world and enjoys the beauty or misery of their own creation. There is only one path because no one can, even if they want to, walk the path of someone else. Just like in Zen, human beings create the path by walking, and the same path dissolves behind the one who walks/creates it.

Many stop, fearful, because they want to know where the path will take them, they need reassurance. These are the ones who decide not to live. Nietzsche urges all of us not to ask questions, not to give in to mental masturbation, not to tremble in fear in the face of the unknown, but to walk/act, and through actions, create our own great adventure, that is, our own world.
