What is your Philosophy of life . ?

Like a flowing river, keep moving till it ends? or like on long drive with no destination in mind, and take whatever road comes first? or a person who set out with a clear mind about destination & what route to take.

Are you out for a drive or for a journey?

I will give my opinion soon but right now I'm feeling sorry for those who live forver. LoL

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

I believe in the following.

1. Life is an exam hall in which your love for Allah and His creations is tested.

2. Life is a journey from mother's laps to grave.

3. (This one covers all livingthings) Life is survival. All livingthings do everything possible to ensure their survival till they encounter death!

I like the flowing river analogy.
Like a river we should adapt to whatever circumstances life throws in our way.
Like a river we should flow gently over the rocks or meander around the bigger hills (ie what we cannot overcome, we should pass it by)
Like a river we should confine ourself to the banks.
Like a river, we should maintain the distinct sweeteness of our waters and not mix it with the salty waters of the ocean, even when we have to come close to the ocean.

Be like water, it takes the shape of the vessel it is in.

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own comman sense - shakyamuni Buddha

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

None of the above, Why limit yourself to just two dimensions, be free as a bird and experience life in all dimensions. somewhat like what Iqbal said:


Nahin tera nasheman Qasri Sultani kay gumbad par


**Tu Shaheen hai basera kar Paharoun ki chattanoun par........:) **

does philosophy of life ever work ??

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

No one can rely only on one's own common sense in the initial stages of life. It is through the wisdom of religon, books and our elders that we are able to learn to develop our common sense and wisdom. Life is too short to discover everything by ourselves, rather it is better to learn from the knowledge that has been proved reliable for hundreds of years.

Newton said that I have been able to see far more than others by standing on the shoulders of previous giants.

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

i dont have any philosophy of life - i just live my life without pushing myself to do anything and accept the outcome as Allah's will whether i like the results or not ;S

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

STP...Its good to stand on giants shoulder, but you also gotto be ready to jump if necessary.

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

balance betweeen live and let live equation.

realization of what is me and what is my extension.
relation with what surrounds you - your self in relation to your surroundings.

finding inner peace.
living by rules or values either self created or adapted and learnt.

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

life is a river. it will flow acc to the gadient.
whenever there is a chnge in gradient, u may need to turn. but u shud always have the destiny in mind(the ocean, in other words contentment). and just like it doesn't matter where the river reaches the ocean, it doesn't matter what field u choose to work in. the ultimate thing is bing content in life.

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?

Re: What is your Philosophy of life . ?
