One philosophy that I think people like to think they believe, but
don't actually do, is don't sweat the small stuff. Today in my biology
class, the teacher told us that we all have 1000 months to live. Now
when he put it that way, it really doesn't sound like that long. So i
just think, why worry about miniscule things? Don't flip out on your
kids if they are 5 minutes late, or accidentally spill something. And
teens shouldn't have a melt down if one guy doesn't like them, or some
person they never cared about before calls them something bad. People
need to really stop caring about things that really don't effect them.
Everyone should just be happy with how great things are actually going
for them, and not dwell on something so little, that in a week it
won't even matter.

i look at it as, you can complain about everything and always talk
about how your life sucks or you can get over it, do something about
it, and move on

One philosophy i like is “Life is just a journey”. There are moments
that shape us, moments that break us. We have our ups and downs. It
truly is just a journey.

My philosophy is based on my belief that all the money in the world
cannot buy happiness. Money can buy material things such as cars,
clothes, and jewelry. These things cannot provide true happiness.
True happiness comes from being true to yourself and doing the things
that you love. For an example, I look to ex-Phillie Jayson Werth.
Jayson chose a high paying contract with an inferior team rather than
remaining with his beloved Phillies for lesser pay. One look at
Jayson, especially when he returns to Citizens Bank Park, tells you
that despite his multi-million dollar pay check, he is miserable. It
is obvious that he wishes he was still a Phillie.

My philosophy for life is that we have no control over things that
happen but its what we do with the good or bad that comes our way that
judge our character. When you here people talk about life and the way
we should walk our paths it makes me ask.. i wonder if they really
know what they are talking about because life throws alot of
curveballs at you and its hard to push through the storm. If you make
everything a pitty party and make it all about you its harder to push
through because you expect people to help you through it all. Some of
the time you will have no body by your side to help you get through
and you have to rely on yourself but stay open to those that are
positive influences in your life. Take life by every pitch and if you
hit a home run then run and keep running until you run out of breath.

One philosophy I have is about life. I just think that it should be
living your life to the fullest. Express you remotions and dont let
the stupid stuff get to you. Its not worth it and it will only be a
pain later and wont do you any good. You need to think about the now
and not worry about tomorrow because this day could be your last.

My philosophy about life is that we should all live our life to our
fullest. Not let life get you down and look at the good things more
then the bad. The professor that we talked about today had a lot of
good points to talk about. He wasn’t going to let the cancer get the
best of him, that’s why he made that inspiring speech. Everyone should
be like that not just because there going to die; they could be
perfectly healthy and do the same thing. I think everyone should have
their own little personal bucket list, it doesn’t have to be crazy but
things maybe you would really like to do before you pass away, and I’m
not thinking about tomorrow but you never know what’s going to happen.
It could be as simple as saying to help people in need. I also really
believe in reaching for your dreams just like the professor did. I
never really knew what I wanted in life but you need to have plans and
I have a really big dream and won’t let anyone or anything to keep me
from it. I would love to open my own business and be the best salon
owner that I can be. If I let people get in my way then ill be failing
and leave this world without being happy. Not everyone is going to
talk down to you about these things and relationships are very
important in having a good life. Without that close personal
connection life feels incomplete. I remember when my grand mom was in
the hospital when she had a stroke she was in really bad condition,
she couldn’t talk and her whole left side was paralyzed. Even though
she didn’t look like she was in good shape inside she was stronger
because everyone in my family visited her everyday and I know that
made her feel great that all those people loved her and was there for
her. She wasn’t doing well but she lasted longer then they expected in
the hospital. I really think it was because of the relationship she
had with all the people in here life. If no one was by her side I’m
sure that she would have passed sooner. I don’t believe in miracles I
believe that stuff happens for a reason. Miracles would just make life
easier and God didn’t put us on earth for everything to be handed to
us. He put us on earth to learn right from wrong and strive for the
things we want in life and but your best foot forward and put so much
effort into everything we do to have the best life possible. For
everyone to have goals and dreams. I also understand people do bad
things but not everyone is perfect but everyone has the rite to live
there own way. I'm not saying that my ways rite but its what I
strongly believe and maybe it’s because of my morals and how my dad
raised me but I think I’m doing a pretty good job and a pretty good
understanding on what my philosophy of life is.

My philosophy on life would be live life to the fullest. Life can be
short. You do not want to waste time on things you don't love. Set
goals and dreams for yourself, because when you achieve them it just
makes your life even happier and better. Also, I feel that you need
to have loving relationships in your life. Whether its just with
your
family, freinds, or your partener, having loving people around you
that actually care about you will keep your life going. Therefore,
you must love and live your life to succeed and leave this world
happy.

One philosophy of life, that I think is very important is "To thine
own self be true." Alot of people are fake and not themselves but when
you are, people have alot of respect for you. Just like the Professor
today, he expressed himself and told the group to tell the truth,
people took it as inspirational, and they could relate to it. When you
open up to people and you are yourself or tell the truth, it makes
life go some much easier.

I agree with Randy's philosophy on life, for I also believe that you
should enjoy every aspect of your life to keep yourself active and
enterained. Also, I feel that whining or making excuses about your
destroys the entertainment in life, and how people respect you.

my philosophy on life is that no matter what happens in life, things
will continue to move on, people are dying and being born constantly,
life has challenges but you decide how to face every situation on your
own, you can live a happy life and do what makes you happy or go out
and live a depressing life based on what society expects of you

a philosophy i have iis treat others how you want to be treated
because the meaner you are to people, the meaner they'll be to you.
but if you're nicer to people, they'll be nice back. and in the end
everyone will be happy and you'll have a lot more friends

My philosophy on life is to live your life to the fullest and to go
out and get everything you want. Do not wait around for things to
happen because the people that do that do not get anything they want
out of life because they won't go and fight for it. Nothing in life
comes free everything people have they have to work for and those who
get it for free do not appreciate it like you will in the end when you
worked for it.
