As the topic indicates... What is the philosophy, quote, saying etc... that you base you life mostly on and use basicly every day in your life with yourself and your surroundings?
I mainly follow the quote : "To be or not to be? That is not the question! To BE! But to be what?" it kind of makes me think about every choice i make in my life and every path i choose to take with myself and my surrounding.

My gf is pregnant now.

Fix it later.

Yes, my point exactly. I rest my case.

Ha, I don't follow the ideology to that point, don't worry.

...

Read "The Fountainhead" - I guarantee you'll enjoy it. My younger sister bases her life philosophy on Ayn Rand's principles.

Thanks for the rec. I will buy the book, as soon as I get the chance.

Buy? Why not sign it out of a library?

I actually like owning books. Plus my library card has expired so I would have to get a new card, sign it out and look to see if it is there... etc. I could just go to Barnes and Noble and get it.

Do what you want to in life. It all leads to the same place, so it's better to take the more enjoyable way there.

Wicca - new age - paganism

maybe it's only shitty fascination of slavonic or nordic mythology but i think only Nature is so logical and true to be my way in this fuckin life

i don't believe in life after death, i think that everything spiritual is in us, in our brains (drags are very smart and also dangerous bastards)

I Agree My Beliefs "for the most part" are Native American, but all the same all Native and Indigenous people are Spiritual and Respect Nature. I believe one has to respect and give back to Mother Earth, but we live in a Greedy, Ignorant, Materialistic World now. It doesn't matter what your beliefs are one should respect Nature, but in time Mother Earth will heal herself and Humans will be no more because of our Ignorance. Nothing we do or can do Can surpass nature, Not Even Nuclear, Fusion, or Biological war. All true power works in a Cycle and the Cycle will begin again without humans.

Here are some of the rules I try to fallow in my life.

Try not to get to upset over things and its my own responsibility to have a good time in life. think of it negatively and it will be negative. think of it positively and it will eventually turn out that way.

Treat people as equals if they present themselves on that level. If they act pitiful or dumb they are usually just that, pitiful and dumb. I usually don't give these types of people much of my time.

I treat the people I care about with a basic respect on any level. and I always try to see how they are thinking if I'm frustrated with them or anything like that.

If anyone I know or care about in the least has a problem I will try to go out of my way to help them if I feel I can.

I may not fallow these all the time very time but its what I try to do and It makes me feel better when I do do it

This is pretty much me in a nutshell:

I can make fun of myself a million times better than you can make fun of me, so you might as well stop trying

I'm apathetic to apathy. I'm going to care my ass off about everything.

No matter how much I might hate life, I love being alive.

To truly love humanity you must be neither selfless nor selfish, as the former belittles the self and the latter belittles everyone else.

I would rather help other people and occasionally get taken advantage of than do nothing.

Recognize the emotion and reason in yourself and strive to satisfy both.

Happiness isn't a goal, it is a side-effect of accomplishing what you set out to do.

Even if we have no free will, acting like we do is always best.

I'm open to the idea of a god type person thing, as long as he/she/it doesn't act anything like any god I have heard of.

Arrogance without narcissism. Sometimes you gotta be arrogant as hell to get something awesome done, but that doesn't mean you need to be an ass about it.

Respect.

I can always find reasons to be happy and reasons to be depressed, so I choose to be happy.

Never be content, but always be happy.

Depression is not romantic; it is a pit of quicksand.

Anarchy is a cop out.

I'm not wasting my life planning and preparing for another one after I die.


That is all I could think up off the top of my head lol

Treat others how you'd like to be treated. As pathetic, useless, and quite annoying as I am, I found I got this far by being respectful to everyone that hasn't angered me to a red level.

Never be content, but always be happy.

If by this you mean that we should always try and improve ourselves then I'd say it's nicely said, and it could apply to me as well. But I wouldn't say I have a philosophy, it's just the way things turn out in the end. I'm not always trying to do something following some principle but I try to keep in mind what's best for me and then I try to act according to it.
