Philosophy - February 2007

The only problem with Sadness,
Desperateness,Anger,Hopelessness,
Anxiety,Anguish,Misery is that
we wants to get rib of them.
That's the only barrier.
We wil have to live with them......
They are the very situations in which
Life has to itegrate and grow...
Think abou that and tell more about
"Sadness"

is it just awards and honors, or does it dig deeper? (wisdom, self-discipline, actions, religion, sovereignty, or even the slightest belief in one's dreams...)

When I say 'heroes', I do not mean some idiot who thinks it's heroic to go to war and never ceases to engage in warfare (ok, an extreme example, but you get my point). I mean it in the ancient Greek sense, of a person with honour, who would sacrifice his/her reputation, comfort, or even his/her life for the ideals he/she believes in.

University degrees in Philosophy are usually Arts or Science degrees, BAs or BScs.
What are the chances of Yahoo Questions putting a Philosophy Section in Science, so rigorous Philosophy questions are not mixed with questions about why people are unhappy with their age or why can't we all just get along?
Would appreciate an answer that uses clear reasoning, poetically.

The Ethnic origin? The place of birth? The place of parents's birth? Or just nationality?

my mom is kurdish from lebanon, my dad is german.. I was born in egypt because my dad was a diplomat there.
anyways, we moved from egypt when I was 5 months old and I became an american citizen when I was 8 years old.. I've lived in US for most of my life. Now my question is where am I from? What should I respond when I'm asked "where are you from?" I always pause and don't know what to answer..

should I be considered a german? a kurd? a lebanese ? an american? or an egyption?

By older i mean people in their 30-40 that gave up in life. I always hear them talk about their high school days and how much of a bad *** they were, but then they start saying, "what if" only if" and all sorts of excuses that prevented them from doing something with their lives? At least, they'll always have their 1988 prom memories, which they never shut up about.

I can't sleep. I've laid in bed for couple of hours staying still, then tossing and turning. What makes you sleepy? It's 1:07 a.m., and I couldn't sleep.

What is your ultimate goal in life? and Why?
-Consider this question with your somehow knowing that there is no afterlife. This is it-
(below are possible choices)

a) the accumulation of wealth and power
b) a healthy, "normal" family
c) fame or prestige, either locally, nationally, or globally
d) self-realization/actualization (as one with the universe)
e) a connection to your spiritual intuition (or divine guide)
f) the knowledge of a truth (besides the truth that there is only certainty in uncertainty)
g) explain a different choice

And WHY did you choose this? What do you believe makes this most important?

Instead of matter being the ground of all being, it is consciousness. And rather than each individual possessing a consciousness, there is one unitary consciousness. Your classical mode of brain is not conditioned falsly in that you do not recognize the world as matter and can choose from a vast potentia of possible realities.
Your quantum mode of brain is going to collapse a possiblity and thus create a reality of whatever you choose.

What do you see there? Or what is happening?
