Philosophy - July 2006

Ah Sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller's journey is done;

Where the youth pined away with desire.
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!
- William Blake, Songs of Experience

Quite optimistic and interesting poem by William Blake. Apart from this aspect of poetry I was wondering as why does sunflower always looks at the sun. Okie dont spoil the mood by scientific explanation.

Imagine someone just staring all the day at someone. Is it the looks of anger? Are these emotions of love? or just the lusstful eyes of sunflower?

A field full of sunflower, all looking at Sun. Why do they admire it soo much? What kind of love is this? Just looking at sun and just looking.

And what about sun? How does it feel? Embarassed? Shy? Proud? Happy? or indifferent?

Does sun like it being gazed by someone always all the time?

This question, ask how important will your hatred be while waiting to die, will your last breath speak of hate, or will you want to get comfort before you die? What importance can your hatred bring you as you die, should you not then live with a better purpose?

What can be done to improve on whatever efforts already exist in regards to the institutionalization of the homeless?

Institutionalization of the homeless means relief services, getting them off drug, intoxication and other unhealthy habits. They would also need training if that is possible.

I am asking this on the philosophy group so that we can go over theories. From theories we can possibly chalk out better plans for the homeless.

See my main page for information about what I am into. Click on Amanitvam. Thanks!

dont you think no matter how much we've grown up will still have a heart of a child. i would say growing up would be more like putting a new face to the world and hide the rest. and have to act on a different mood.

if there is a seperation from church and state when it comes to traditional religions, they have been replaced with non-traditional religions. So for instance I view school as a religion, since you have to have faith that 2+2=4, or you have to faith in the meaning of a period at the end of a sentence(most ppl on here would discount my faith in the later, because of my run-on sentences). I had a class this past year on street law, and of course this subject came up, I challenged my teacher with this, and he recanted for you to have a religioin you must have a god of sorts, so I recanted well there is a god, and its called knowledge, and you have to have faith in knowledge....I first thought of this when a social worker came to my door one day, she thought I wasnt going to school but i wasnt enrolled in her school, so she said are you going to school religiously. So its just a thought and I want to see what you all think, also I stumped my teacher, he thinks he got the final word

If God created us in her image, surely she must also have a sense of Humor as this is one of the big distinctions between us and other animals. So why would she get so upset about what name we choose to give her and the odd bit of blasphemy?
