| Well... if you have a comfortable shelter over your head, have 3 meals a day, has a big enough bed to sleep, and proper clothes to wear, that's normal life... |

Hmm, can't say I have much of a philosophy. I just do what I do. I think ahead sometimes, and not at all other times. I suppose one of my favorit sayings is: go with the flow
I also try not to judge others, whether they are 'good' or 'evil', but that dosnt mean I wont judge you. As the Christians say: "Judge not least you be judge". One of their better mentalities I think. |

If i follow u and if i simplify ur questions, what u ask is why life is unfair ?
Or something like that
Well, pain exist to make u understand that happiness exist
Sickness is here to make u realize how the health is something important
Death is here to make u understand how life cares
Misery is here to make u understand that u shouldn’t complain about what u already has
And i can still keep on giving exemples
Hegel took all those exemples to develop his dialectic and the theory of negativity
Well, all is here to show u that u’re not the center of the world
There’s things that we complain about though they are not that useful
All those things that make u think that life is unfair should only help u to be less selfish and take what we give to u
Is life unfair or fair ? Is it really useful for u to have an answer ? If so i think u’re on the way to become a believer
Well, of course that’s just my point of view |

Haha, I know what you meant kyo. I was thinking in a stand that I'm the more fortunate person instead of the more unfortunate.
Those statements you've said, can be applied to most of us because we hae our ups and downs in life. I was wondering if life is fair to the children in Africa, where their live is only down, no ups. Is it fair to them... |

Beliefs
-An eye for an eye makes the world go blind
-Feel free to hate me for the right reasons
-Hate and love come from the same source
-Never underestimate stupid people in large numbers
-Hate is a feeling that includes your relatives and family
-Sometimes making mistakes could be your best talent
-Jealousy is one of man's best emotion
-Immoral is a brand used on people that aren't your friends
-Mixing Politics and religion is a bomb waiting to explode (yeah..me too AA)
-Hit me, i wont hit back, but i promise to bring you something else
-Don't seek a happy life..seek a better life!
-Everything in this world is molded on how we see it, so respect other's view for you may not be seeing something that others see..
-I believe most things that the church has taught me and i shall treasure it well..
This might be my basic beliefs..feel free to whatever.. _________________ Am I Existing or Am I Alive? Make me Feel..

Ah, I just remembered I've forgotten to say my important but insignificant, strictly observed but not much known priciples in my life.
Never waste food. (well practically everything else too)

Du5k > U can’t really say that their lives has only downs
They also have good moments in their lives
Of course those moments are not like ours
We’re not in their position to be able to tell for them that their life has not enought ups
Maybe ppl have only echos of what medias are showing to us that’s why they are thinking that those children in Africa have few ups in their lives
Who really knows ? only them
To answer ur question, or maybe not ^^ ;, we can’t say that life’s unfair or not for them
I mean predestination is predestination u can’t escape from it
U can’t chose the place of ur birth, the date of ur birth, the social – political context of ur birth or such things…
Somehow u take what we give to u ^^ ;
I know it's off topic ><; |

there is a simple answer to why the world is unfair:
Free will.
some people choose to take more than they need, gluttony, greed and such, witch prevents it from getting to those who do need it, this is an actual fact.
Aid money from America is one of the biggest cash cows for middle eastern and African politicians to line their pockets with.
to think of it Pink Floyd's dogs of war also comments on such. _________________ If violence isn't the answer, you didn't use enough.
Most people operate under a fundamental misconception:
they believe most if not all people are good
It is saddly verry much not so. |

This will not be any happy reading but I'm more of the sceptic school of philosofy, so you headonists and philantrophy poeple beware!
-Distant love will allways leed to demise. One has speak out the emotions rather than keep quiet.
-The same goes with politics. Never follow the winds; stand still and work on your subject of the heart and mend your wounds of defeat.
-The past is more important than you think. Learn from it and make a better future. "The one who looks back at the past is one-eyed, but he who doesn't is blind"
-The human is a beast by nature and only the ones who accept it knows the truth.
-A leader that abuse power must be crushed by any means.
-Finaly: No human is an island. _________________ ...? |

- Try putting yourself in other people's shoes before trying to do something that directly concerns other people.
I'm really an empathic guy XD |

You guys are full of wisdom. I can tell most of you will/have suceeded your goals and dreams. Well all I can say is...
"Do what your heart and mind agree is right."
If you do just what your heart tells you to do, then that shows your recklessness. If you do what your brain tells you to do, then that shows your ignorance.
-"Ideas without action are useless"
-"All humans by nature desire knowledge"
-"Most evil is done by people who haven't made up their minds to be either good or evil"
-"Worry less about defining right and wrong, concentrate on using your current knowledge"
Now here's my beliefs that might cause a little problem to some people.
-God does not exist, but there is a higher power.
-Money makes the world go round(figureatively)
-Efforts are useless. Results are what matters.
-Commiting sins is bad, but denying you don't is worse.
-Every truth has a lie, faith comes with doubt.

@dusky
For me(Constantly reminding people that its my opinion)
Empathy is a great thing to have since it wont be a wonder for you to associate with other communities or groups.
You wont be very touchy and too sensitive..
yet you are not clueless and insensitive either..
Dusky is an ok guy!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not all people will care because some people think about are
How to meet with their ends..
I shot an arrow into the air, what it hits, i do not care
As an additional norm i have
-I dont like people who is only happy to make me stand up on the trip
but im as worthless of a person to watch them suffer either.. _________________ Am I Existing or Am I Alive? Make me Feel..

Here's mine, though Im still refining them.
1) The biggest problem with spirituality is confusing it with religion
2) Aside from God and the Bible, everything we know from religion to rationale, everything we have from the wheel to the spaceship is the product of one thing : the reasoning human mind.
3) ego is an illusion that only exists in the preception of others
4) Altruism is suicide
5) As long as your on this side of the dirt you have a purpose, weather or not you seek and carry it out is up to you
6) Truth is societies greatest obstacle
7) Reality, ultimately, is defined only by the individual
After that being said, if you can believe it, Im a Christian  |
