Rollo May

• We cannot escape Umwelt; we must learn to live in the world around us and to adjust to changes within this world.
• We also live in the world with people, that is, Mitwelt. We must relate to people as people, not as things. If we treat people as objects
• To live in Eigenwelt means to be aware of oneself as a human being and to grasp who we are as we relate to the world of things and to the world of people.
• Dasein meaning to exist there. Dasein literally means to exist in the world and is generally written as being-in-the-world. The hyphens in this term imply a oneness of subject and object, of person and world.
