Day 2-Meaning behind your blog name

Megistentialism....

My sister actually came up with the name when her and I were discussing that I wanted to get back into writing. It's a play off my name and Existentialism.

The definition provided by Answers.com ...

Existentialism:
n.
A philosophy that emphasizes the uniqueness and isolation of the individual experience in a hostile or indifferent universe, regards human existence as unexplainable, and stresses freedom of choice and responsibility for the consequences of one's acts.

or as Wikipedia states:
Existentialist thinkers focus on the question of concrete human existence and the conditions of this existence rather than hypothesizing a human essence, stressing that the human essence is determined through life choices.

So there is my story about my name :)
