Scholar chasing truth, pleasure, and something more

[FaustUnfiltered @FaustUnfiltered]

Strange how the things we chase most intensely can become the very things that destroy us. Desire feels powerful until it turns into regret.

Met someone today who says life is meant to be experienced, not just analyzed. Tempting idea. Maybe knowledge without pleasure is only half a life.

Spent years studying philosophy, law, medicine, and theology just to realize I still know nothing that actually satisfies the soul. There has to be more than books.
