I will babble from time to time, I think that is the true purpose of my blog.  I used to get friends and family to look at it, but some people would say stuff that I never had the confidence to defend, same with my Facebook.  People believe that there are parts of us that the world just should not see, that there are things we can think but never share with the whole world.  Maybe they believe that there are a select few people who can hear it, but other than that we should just keep our rabble to ourselves. 

In a way I can see that is true. I can see how the people in my life honestly don't care to listen- if I wanted to be factual I could bring in a bit I read in a book, so I will.  The book states that one logical fallacy that often becomes someone is the Continued Influence of Misinformation, basically how the memory of some fact that has long since been proven wrong can affect the way one thinks and makes conclusions.  It is no wonder then why nobody wants to listen to everybody's mistaken conclusions.

I have long known about the error in my thought and thinking, what I cannot come to accept is any solution to the problem.  Maybe I haven't done enough research or maybe no amount of research can be done to come to a satisfying conclusion.  I feel there are only two options, to live in error and constantly seek learning and shaping from reality and experience, which I've seen to unfortunately have an effect on people; or I can subscribe to some distinct philosophy, and yes, I consider science a philosophy- it is the philosophy of reality whereas it is bound to leave questions unanswered such as "where did everything come from?" or "where is everything going?"  So I live in error, even when I try to submit to a philosophy, unfortunately for me, when you fail and weigh it against a philosophy, you only learn how to hold more to the philosophy and deny a part of yourself that may be practical in the real world but you can't allow yourself to live like that.  A philosophy is like a little world, where you take reality and make it smaller so it is easier to manage.  You live by little  "if, then" statements and you follow commands so you can control it all yourself.

Philosophy isn't living, it is culture.  It is one of many experiences in life and whatever wisdom you are learning to love, you are probably neglecting another.
