A Harmonious Echo
Both Kierkegaard's 'Works of Love' and Eilenberger's 'Time of the Magicians' resonate with a profound, almost liturgical exploration of human connection and striving. You've gravitated towards these texts, perhaps sensing their shared, deeply introspective VIBE, which unpacks how individuals grapple with meaning and ethical responsibility within the grander narratives of existence – Kierkegaard through the lens of faith, and Eilenberger through the intellectual crucible of existentialism and phenomenology.
