Riches can be stolen, fame can be forgotten. External forces are not in our control, and thus it seems very strange to me to put our everything into that which is not entirely ours. What truly matters in the end is that which is ours and cannot be taken away - our mind. To be … Continue reading That Which Truly Matters

What you give is what you get; give nothing and you will in turn receive nothing. Likewise, the opposite is true. Give everything and your kindess will be reciprocated. But do mind that giving because you want something will result in reciprocation that wants something. Aim therefore to become someone for whom the very act … Continue reading To Give Is To Get

That which we feel is good for us and values we hold dear, why are they so very hard to adhere to? Perhaps it is so that this is linked with our inherent dislike of that which is presented as "musts" in cooperation with our biological predisposition.

Many perspectives can … Continue reading Quest Towards Meaning

Philosophy (from greek: philosophia; love of wisdom) is the study of general and fundamental questions, such as those about reason, existence, knowledge, values, mind, and language. The field of philosophy, I argue, is highly neglected in modern times, that which I feel is really quite ironic considering the need for philosophy being greater than ever. That which I believe because the … Continue reading The Value Of Philosophy
