That statement has a negative connotation in today's society. When i say i live for myself i mean i do whatever i deem positive in my life, such as practicing personal hygiene or being social. I'm not a hedonist though, i do not search for infinite pleasure. Some may say that philosophy is selfish, but i disagree because i feel helping others and doing things for others is a big part of self satisfaction. I find this mindset important to me because; i'm stuck with me for life, why not make the most of what i have? I'm not sure if this self serving philosophy has changed the way i act towards others much, but i do feel quite a strong connection with myself and who i am. This philosophy has also made me quite and indecisive person who knows his limits and doesn't take a whole lot of risks, but with that comes regret, there are alot of missed chances i still think about from time to time.

I believe  my philosophy can build off the idea of transcendentalism with the difference being that you must understand yourself deeply and then reality will expose all the wonderful things about life and you can find beauty in everything.

In my opinion this form of writing was simply impossible until the last few hundred years, and the idea of such deep reflection on life and one's self as a whole. I say this because of how we are living more these days than surviving.]]> 2019-03-25 03:58:47 UTC https://padlet.com/erik_kadinger1_2/5pmj2pxh4lge/wish/344669018 erik_kadinger1_2 https://padlet.com/erik_kadinger1_2/5pmj2pxh4lge/wish/344669415 2019-03-25 04:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/erik_kadinger1_2/5pmj2pxh4lge/wish/344669415 erik_kadinger1_2 https://padlet.com/erik_kadinger1_2/5pmj2pxh4lge/wish/344669505 2019-03-25 04:02:23 UTC https://padlet.com/erik_kadinger1_2/5pmj2pxh4lge/wish/344669505
