Lemme tell ya, Kierkegaard does not get any easier when you read it in the original language. I was told prior to beginning that it would be a massive advantage, but it honestly just makes your head hurt. Though i will also admit that reading it was probably good for my teenage angst, since a solid chunk of his writing seems to be related to that subject, as well as the concepts of free will and free choices (I mostly dealt with the ones relating to regret).
