The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. —— Nietzsche The individual must always strive to survive within society in order to avoid feeling disillusioned. ——Nietzsche
Right. But where can you find such sentences? They all seem strange. The tribe acts like soil: when you get along with it, you can absorb knowledge from it, and you can’t live without the knowledge inherited from the tribe’s history. But every time you want to improve yourself, every time you want to rise above the tribe, it acts like a mountain. As the sentence says, you struggle to break free from it. But you should know that it’s not the tribe you’re trying to get rid of; it’s your past self that’s blocking your path.
Struggle. It’s very real. I struggle every day.
