Hah I'm just curious What would you say your life philosophy is? Myself I'd have to say I'm an Individualist.
Wikipedia on Individualism wrote: | Individualism is a term used to describe a moral, political, or social outlook that stresses human independence and the importance of individual self-reliance and liberty. Individualists promote the exercise of individual goals and desires. They oppose most external interference with an individual's choices - whether by society, the state, or any other group or institution. Individualism is therefore opposed to views based on collectivism or statism, which stress that communal, community, group, societal, or national goals should take priority over individual goals. Individualism is also opposed to tradition, religion, or any other form of external moral standard being used to limit an individual's choice of actions. |
So now say it loud and proud, whats your general life philosophy. |

Life is a pointless, depressing thing that I choose to live merely because the alternative is inevitable, and I choose to delay it.
Life is a gift... or perhaps a curse. But as opposed to spitting in my creator's eye and throwing the gift back at them by taking my life, I choose merely to live it out.
I really wish I could be spiritual, or look at life as something with any sort of significance... but I can't, and that's why I'm a depressed little sack of meat. |

You should really live life to the fullest. for yourself and others you love. IMO thats the most noble thing you can do. Life is good and bad, but its generally what you make it. |

I live my life as if it actually mattered, though. I just choose not to kid myself in the logical area of it... it means nothing to me. I do live mostly for the social aspect. I like to be happy, and I like to make people happy (don't be a pervert). |

Notice what is wrong with things from time to time, but be happy with yourelf. Look at the good and try to be as good as you can to yourself and others.
Also, do whatever you want, just don't bother anyone else with it, unless they want to. |

Life is the state created by constant hadrwork from metabolism and other body functions. Simple that way, eh?
At a first point, I think that with all the hard work and time it was to design this body structure we have, and with all the tough, speedy work that goes on inside us, it is worth it to make it value at something.
On the other hand, I need my flameshield to say that, but more people need to die. Overpopulation, everything going out of control, ambiental shit going down...
Personally, I don't think I am actually worth my life. Because judging from the way I am, I'm pretty much sure natural selection would be merciless upon me, but the rest of the humans made it so natural selection is totally corrupted. |

The purpose of life is to merely be born, reproduce, and then die... however, its meaning is whatever you make of it.
You live however you want; after all, you're going to die at some point. Be a slob if you want, or be a hard-working person. Either way, the result is the same: death. Choose whichever path will be the most meaningful to you. After all, you're just going to rot in the ground and be forgotten, anyway. Unless you get cremated... then you won't rot in the ground, but, people will stop giving a shit about your life at some point, anyway.
In my life, I choose to make others happy... even if they don't like it. Ever heard the term "cruel to be kind?" Well, I follow that phrase quite a bit. Some people hate me because of that, but a lot of people love me because of it. Of course, I only "help" people if I feel like it... it's my life after all, not theirs. Generally speaking, I won't help a person unless whatever they're doing is bothering for whatever reason, or it will effect me in some way. Selflessness comes from selfishness, I suppose... |

This. All of it. Especially the "I choose to make others happy" part. The only part that I differ from it, is that I even do small things (like holding a door) and even if I don't benefit from it. |

Throughout life, I've only learned two things.
1. The only definite in life is death.
2. If you can't solve the puzzle, your nothing but a loser. (Meaning people are only worth their abilities. It also means that it doesn't matter how you got their. All that matters is the end result.) |

The last one isn't a direct quote. It's a basic summary of what he said |

Hmm...a life philosophy, eh? Hmm....I follow philosophy of seven virtues. Not of the religious perspective, but one of regards for all.
Honor Passion Generosity Benevolence Love Loyalty Wisdom
This is no RP. It is my true life's virtues and philosophies. |
