Where Ideas Are Brought Down to Earth!

Writings based on Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand's most popular novels are Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead which present her philosophy, Objectivism, in vivid characterizations. Metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, esthetics, and politics are the five main branches of philosophy that she identifies. Utilizing her methodology, one can be rational about all aspects of life. These essays present my understanding of Objectivism.

Seriously

It’s hard to take
Seriously
The man who laughs
Deliriously
At thoughts of fate

To hold one’s life
Dreary
(It happens so
Rarely)
Is lack of strife

When bad occurs
Tragically
There are no deeds
Magically
To cure the burns

But if one keeps
Persistently
Values in mind
Constantly
Seldom one weeps

For it’s still there
Marvelously
(Existence ALL)
Magnificently
Urging one to bear.
