I’m sure this is a genre I just have no idea what to search for
But what I mean is kind of taking the opposite tack of the Buddhists and trying to do away with your humanity/attachment to escape suffering and instead embracing your humanity and taking a heroic approach on life, yes i will suffer yes i will fail but no i will not stop, in the face of guaranteed suffering i will still love and love again, i willfully attach myself to others knowing it will cause me pain but knowing the pain is worth it because this is what it is to be human and to love
Maybe the closest thing I’m thinking of is like this: “The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.”
