In a nutshell, on a personal level, what is your most basic philosophy for living your life?

Mine is:

Truth and honesty is the most important.

Happiness the second.

Never Give Up Never Surrender

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

----) (-----

I never do to anyone else what I wouldn't want done to myself

Life is too short not to be happy - make the most of every day

"Be willing to experience anything and cause only those things which others are able to experience easily."

Don't take it so seriously.
No one gets out alive.

When on the Highlander Dunkan McCloud asked why a fellow immortal went around killing mortals, the evil immortal said, "They are all going to die anyway."


True.....

fairness of thought in all that i do.

An it harm none do what ye will

im coming to find that life is made up of how you react to what you cant control...for example...everything

"I kill you!!"

Isn't it "I Keeel you?"

hahaha yeah

shows what I know about philosophy

Mine is simple---find a woman like E. Lambert the soccer player and let her take care of me. she can kik some A$$ can't she? With a little PR she could make some real money. Bet She's great in bed!--Kinda depends on if she likes men that is?? Not a great lifelong Philosophy but for the short term --interesting--

I sincerely hope you are joking because I can't think of a more miserable existence than thinking you need someone to "take care of you." Maybe its just me, but I find that knowing you can take care of yourself to be more satisfying.

Well, let me think a minute----Just for fun and just for the short term. I'm 61 and have been taking care of myself for ever. Even as a kid. Short term would be nice. Don't need the money but---PR-en her would be fun---watching the Oprah crowed Bla all over the place----I smell a book!!

Yes then I can see where you might like to relax and let someone pamper you for a while and look after you.

I will admit though, I see a lot of men who are looking for a mother figure, especially at the age of retirement whereby they can retire and have someone to 'take care of them' in their retirement.

Women like to retire too, but so many times when a husband retires, his wife ends up working for the rest of her life "taking care of him." I can't stand men who expect their women to wait on them, cook for them, clean their house, do their laundry until the day one of them dies after she probably worked all her life raising his kids.
