"We aren’t safe inside separate minds. Being-in-the-world means we’re entangled and vulnerable - that’s how we flourish"
Really enjoyed this article.... Heidegger not someone I've come across before (every day a school day!) - will have to seek out some of his writings now.
Sharing as thought might be of interested to the Mindsprings community too! https://psyche.co/ideas/heidegger-knew-that-we-are-always-outside-weathering-the-storms

Thanks James! Though I have to say, if this is the first time you've read about Heidegger, you might be in for a rude shock when you get to grapple with the man's actual writing. Or, more particularly, his life. Brilliant philosopher, but also paid-up Nazi. Horizon-opening ideas but head-aching prose style. He's a big part of existentialism and phenomenology and shouldn''t be descredited because of his odious politics. There's much to explore. But don't buy Being and Time and imagine it's going to be all about lemonade and gardens!
