is philosophy same as principles?

Philosophy isn't priciples, or even beliefs. The root of the word is "love of wisdom", and philosophy concerns itself with (often written) argument and discussion so as to penetrate the nature of things.
When people say "my philosophy is...", they're misusing the word.
How does it affect your life? Philosophy makes you question more and look more deeply at the fundamentals. You might become dissatisfied with easy answers that you'd accepted on trust.

Philosophy is the love of wisdom. Principles are the putting into life situations this wisdom. And wisdom is surrender to the will of the Divine.

Hi missfaces !!!
No, sorry. Philosophy:= critical thinking in depth of any kind of important issues to humanity and objectively develop this critical thinking and create solutions to this issues, to make some changes in humanity and it's culture.
In other words, to have a serious idea on how to make a change for the better, usually suggesting critical sometimes radical changes, in culture, religion, politics and other very important aspects of society.
So let's go and do some thinking, who knows, probably you will be one of them!!!
GOD BLESS YOU
MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR

Philosophy is nothing and everything.
Philosophy is to know everything but to know nothing!
Philosophy like I mentioned, contradictory but logical!
Philosophy is INFINITY.

Its a form of study into knowledge. A way everything affects the other... it affects people in a ripple affect...for in a way we are always connect to another person somehow.
