About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Think my life and live my thoughts!

ABOUT ME

I guess they would say I'm a nice guy, considering they are my friends...! They would say I always like to questions things just to try and understand (butt I'm not always that serious). What else? Hmm, I'd say I'm easy going although I like when things get done.

PHILOSOPHY

That's always a tough question =P. I guess I try to match my beliefs with my experience of life...that means my beliefs change as I live. It might by the most important part of my philosophy. I think that sticking blindly to an idea, even a good one, is very dangerous.

About my feelings, I used to think of them as standing in the way of rationality. But now, that sounds sad and false to me. Feelings are what make life worth living. Without them, we wouldn't care about anything...may be we wouldn't act at all. So, yeah, feelings get in the way of our best interest sometimes, but that is the only way to have any interest at all!

So, eh, the meaning I give to my life? I don't know, I always thought that life is worth living in itself, but then again, I know I think that because life hasn't been hard on me. I guess my quest is to be more and more aware of what life is and can be...mostly for humans.

Interests

A lot of things actually! Let's say my top three is : Music, rock climbing and philosophy. I spend most of my time studing for school (philosophy) and hanging out with friends.
