Is Zhuangzi's philosophy pessimistic or nihilistic?
Some might mistake my questioning of societal values and absolute knowledge for despair. However, my aim is not to negate meaning but to transcend the limited and often illusory meanings we construct. By exposing the relativity of all things, I seek not emptiness, but a profound freedom. True contentment comes from letting go of the need for fixed certainties and embracing the spontaneous unfolding of life, finding joy in the absence of striving and in the naturalness of being.
