    live and enjoy life, god never shows himself but i have faith, solely because this world sucks without him. people are nasty. people lie, cheat and steal, in this age people live off greed jealousy and self interest. Love and family is the only true thing that matters in life. i aspire to be rich, yet not greedy or self conceited, just rich because i like the comfort of having money, nice things and the idea of being able to easily support children when im older. people who just want to fit in have no value in this world. shit happens, never look back and wish you did something differently, because you cant change that now. and i want to change the world, some how someway for the better before i die

    Right now my life consists mainly of falling through a bottomless existential black hole. The only real value I seem to be able to feel any passion about is the value of human life. Everything else is an epic grey area.

    My only set in stone philosophy is life is never a waste as long as you find more joy than tears.

    I personally think that applying some kind of personal philosophy to oneself is dull and limits one's individuality.

    The closest I get to a philosophy is...

    "Fuck you, you're a faggot. Let's get some Chinese food."

    society won't let you earn shit, so you might as well steal and kill for what you need.

    1 Strive for something.
    2 Deliberately keep a positive attitude. I'm not actually very good at this, but it would be a good philosophy to have.

    My philosophy is taking long walks. Gah, how bitter. Ok, my philosophy is a woman's body. Gah, how crass. My philosophy is hard work and warfare side-by-side with a comrade. Gah, how idealistic.

    My philosophy is NOTHING. Alas! How absurd. My philosophy is...changing. Contradiction. EVERYTHING.

    you ask a lot of questions

    i am not sure if i even have a philosophy on life. but i have certain views of what a good life is in my eyes and for me personally. it has nothing to do with religion and it never had, because i am not religious. i don`t have any type of code how to act with people and how to treat them. I treat every single person differently. and yes with time my perspective changes i guess, i don`t think it`s even possible to stay the same through all the years, but there are things that never change. some of ours "identical characteristic scars" that usually are the core of what we truly are. and maybe some old habits never die , but overall we always change more or less. some people only on the surface some, deeper.
    my key values and aims in life...? wow that`s a hard one...my values..you can say i am a value to myself ( because in all seriousness i don`t think i have any other values) . I will always be the most important figure in my life, because people come and go , come and go and in the end you are the only one who is there all of the time..so you must have a good relationship with yourself if you want to life a good life i guess.
    I don`t know if i have a purpose and a meaning, maybe when i die i will have the answers to this questions. but for now, if you ask if i give myself a certain purpose so i can go on living my life without feeling pointless....NO, i don`t. and still in the end i don`t really care if i am pointless or not.
    I don`t see myself in anything larger , but i don`t see myself a part of a small group. i just see myself out here in a cold world, without meaning and without a purpose but with a lot of potential for pleasure while i am still alive.

    lol.Maybe.I'm slower answering them tho hehe

    My philosophy.
    Hmm here's some.
    1.To develop as a person,species and society.
    2.To be true to myself.
    3.Not set out to be a tit towards others gratuitiously.
    But if other people *genuinely* need a lesson, then give it-if its for everyone's benefit.
    4. Be aware of the future, but control the "living moment"
    ( thanks Yoda)
    5.Experience all that should be experienced.
    6.Express yourself
    7.Be diplomatic to others
    8.Be loyal to friends and those you are friendly with.
    9.Acccept others may be wrong
    10.Do the best I can, unless that becomes counterproductive.
    11.Look after my own body, mind and mini-world as best I can.

    Lots more other stuff.
    In general terms its about having fun, experiencing things.
    Being loyal and doing the right thing.
    Making money or harnessing resources out of chaos to gain more freedoms and use those freedoms to advance me and the world around me.Being aware that time is precious.Helping others and being self sufficient.
    Creating something that others can enjoy- as a symbol of our era and for benefit in the future.

    Its pretty hard to explain.Sounds like a fucking hippy but I ain't ...:p;)

    'Treat others how you'd want to be treated' - that's basically it.
    Everything else changes with the tide.
