Anxiety, fulfillment

Away from anxiety and towards fulfillment--

Is anxiety freedom, and fulfillment destiny?
Or do we work out our fulfillment in "fear and trembling?"

All fulfillment is teleological and presupposes meaning.

"This then is the formula which describes the states of the self when despair is completely eradicated: In relating to itself and in wanting to be itself, the self is grounded transparently in the power that established it."

~Kierkegaard "The Sickness Unto Death"

"Anxiety is neither a category of necessity nor a category of freedom; it is entangled freedom, where freedom is not free in itself but entangled, not by necessity but in itself..."

~Kierkegaard "The Concept of Anxiety" aka The Concept of Dread
