I want to know other people's life philosophies. In other words, how ould you folks sum up how you like to live your life? Mine is simple: Question what you have been taught and come to your own conclusions.

I find my personal beliefs have a lot in common with the Asian Taoist philosophy.

Why are you a liberal, then? Lao Zi thought that governments are unnatural and hated taxation.

My personal life philosophy includes elements of Taoism, Lockean philosophy, Objectivism, and some thoughts of my own.

Mine is to always try to improve myself. To always be aware of my actions and thoughts. Find ways to change what I do not like about myself and enhance the things that I do. Take responsibility for my actions and never lay blame for my choices on anyone else.

I suppose I follow Hillel's line of reasoning a bit. My personal creed is fairly simple:

If life is only a matter of calories, hydration and defecation, then it exists only to perpetuate its own existance and is therefore redundant and unnecessary. In order for a life to have meaning, it must be dedicated to the preservation of something larger and more lasting than itself.

Call it my personal slave mentality coming into play

Absurdism in the tradition of Albert Camus.

Life is devoid of a higher meaning, there are no "absolutes," and total objectivity is impossible. Similarly, the universe is chaotic and indifferent. Mankind, however, will never be satisfied with this predicament, and will forever demand clarity, unity, and meaning from a world that can't grant them.

I live my life in conscious acceptance of the irrational aspects and contradictions that embody the human condition. I don't deny or try to supress my longing for the "missing piece" that will make me feel complete, but at the same time, I realize that it doesn't exist. I also refuse to take a "leap of faith" into an unproven belief system simply to make me feel better about or "transcend" my limited existence.

Do unto others as you would have them done unto you.

Or, for it's modern form, payback is a bitch. :/
