2 Topics interesting to me
Chapter# 13 "The Meaning of Life" is interesting to me because it is a question most people ask themselves at some point in their lives. I am in my early thirties, so I pursue answers to this question daily. At the beginning of life, children are controlled by thier parents. I reacted as most children, therefore, I obeied my parents out of love and respect. Since my mother kept very close tabs on me, I was a wild child in my early twenties. That is, I just let LIFE happen during my twenties. For instance, I started school but lacked motivation to complete college because I was too busy parting. If thing did not go the way I wanted, I rebelled and made every situation worse. Inconsistency and rebellion lead to a life of suffering consequences but I would much rather reap rewards. Today, my life is very different. For example, I do not allow LIFE to just happen to me. Due to my beautiful daughter, I have decided to grab LIFE by the reigns. As a result of taking contoll of my life, I am interested in hearing what others have discovered while examining the meaning of life. James an Stuart Rachels, authors of Problems of Philisophy, believe our point of veiws on happiness and death plays a big role on how individuals answer life's big question. I am confident investigating these points of views will have a huge impact on my future decisions.
