Creating a Philosophy

just a single drop of water in a pool can make a difference upon the shore


Philosophy is a broad spectrum of thought and thinking. As one develops a certain way of thinking it comes to mind just how we relate to ourselves and to the world. The inner explores the inner and at the same time the outer. Not only do we relate to ourselves but we relate to the world; there is this relationship that occurs simultaneusly between the mind and spirit. We pursue this connection from instinct and insight into our consciousness. Not only do the people around us affect us; but we affect ourself from the certain way of thinking we occupy ourself with. Life is so full of mystery it is no surprise when random chance gets itself involved in our life. It is not only our reaction we are given to; but the thinking process of how and why we react as we do. It has been said that the impact of an action is more than the action itself. If we add to philosophy a bit of theology life becomes even more interesting. It is the addition of soul to spirit and mind that increases the mystery. Still, we go about our ways without a care except for those who labor in thought. That is the work of the philosopher.
