Marcel Proust

Our intonations contain our philosophy of life, what each of us is constantly telling himself about things.

The philosophy to live

The life is
respect and dignity
My philosophy of
life is to
live with dreams
Is satisfying to
think at the
philosophy to live
The philosophy to
live is sacred
and genuine
Is essential that
the philosophy to
live is a
conscious and satisfying
act of our
personal existence
The philosophy to
live must be
defended from excessive
attacks
The philosophy to
live will be
a peaceful and
motivated revolution
The life is
a great and
magnificent work
The life must
be lived slowly
because only thus
can be authentic
The life is
not appearance
The life travels
in the present
The life is
an alternation of
emotions and sensations
There shouldn't be
obsessions in life
because it's an
unrepeatable and extravagant
thing

Music is one of those things that is constantly going in my head all the time. It's sort of like the evolution and creation of doing food, or my philosophy about wine. It's always beating in my head, so it keeps the spirit moving.

What one decides to do in crisis depends on one's philosophy of life, and that philosophy cannot be changed by an incident. If one hasn't any philosophy in crises, others make the decision.

When you see somebody who's got a complaining personality, it usually means that they had some vision of what things could be, and they're constantly disappointed by that. I think that would be the camp that I would fall into - constantly horrified by the things people do.

I'm not that tough; I'm not that smart. I need life telling me who I am, showing me my mind constantly. I wouldn't see it in a cave.

On Your Special Day

Wake up early morning for your special day
To see things wishing you well in their ways
And telling it's your day so don't be sad
And do all things that'll make you glad

And bright sun rising and wishing you well
By giving you happiness that no one can sell
And telling its your day so don't be sad
And do all things that'll make you glad

And small feathered creatures singing youi a song
That today is your birthday so nothing can go wrong
And telling it's your day so don't be sad
And do all things that'll make you glad

And blooming flowers spreading its fragrance for you
To wish you happiness that surely is true
And telling its your day so don't be sad
And do all things that'll make you glad.

I'm a layperson. I barely got out of high school. I have no business telling people what to do or my big philosophy on life. I'm certainly not going to write any sort of memoir.

A Life Philosophy

a life philosophy
not a philosophy on life
a living philosophy

clear concise defined
articulated in civil rights liberty
clemency morality humanitarian symmetry

it is not important to memorize words
words thoughts searched out through years decades
words become life beat peace harmonies

not a manifesto
not written out
not important to memorize

to write out
to be distorted
to be used to manipulate minds

a manifesto not
written out not
important to memorize not

no a great life philosophy
is lived in simplicity acts of humility
freedom gifted to all humanity

love in life
love for all life one life
love sacred fertile compassion love life

If I told you

Telling grey clouds

Telling silent birds

Telling tall trees

These things

That have lain waste

This winter soil

That binds its roots around the dead

Telling all who will listen

Who will hear

That it loved once, lived here

Underneath the shape of things

Felt breathed love.

If I had told you

Only you,

Would you still be here?

Still, in love?

Constantly Telling

to feel dubious
a little weary
of the man woman
constantly telling
of the perfect

wife husband children
raises a question why
if so perfect
happy why

the need
to keep
telling
others
this fact

so often as if trying
to convince who self?
What thing is missing?
This is the question?

Science without respect for human life is degrading to us all and reflects a hollow and deceptive philosophy, a philosophy that we as a people should never condone.

Semi-true Story

By: mac mcanally
With his head out the sunroof
And his heart in the right place
Plan b was foolproof
He drove off to her place
He yelled out his feelings
Among other stuff
It was too much tequila
Or not quite enough
It was too much tequila
Or not quite enough
Its a semi-true story
Believe it or not
I made up a few things
And theres some I forgot
But the life and the telling
Are both real to me
And they all run together
And turn out to be
A semi-true story
Well the picture is fuzzy
And the details are sorted
It was on the same day that gods own drunk was recorded
A walking tall sheriff and a big cadillac
And me and golf shoes on the hood making tracks
This daring young singer was under attack
Its a semi-true story
Believe it or not
I made up a few things
And theres some I forgot
But the life and the telling
Are both real to me
And they all run together
And turn out to be
A semi-true story
Well the things that Ive lived
And Ive dreamed
And Ive seen
And Ive heard
Youll take the good with the bad
And be glad that every word
Its a semi-true story
Believe it or not
I made up a few things
And theres some I forgot
But the life and the telling
Are both real to me
And they run like the rain
All the way to the sea
Semi-true stories

Helen Keller

To know the history of philosophy is to know that the highest thinkers of the ages, the seers of the tribes and the nations, have been optimists. The growth of philosophy is the story of man's spiritual life.

I enjoy getting things done. My philosophy is the edge, the edge of something. There's where we have to go in local government, in not only the philosophy but the creativity in people around you. They have to go to the edge.

Sometimes I Loose My Words

Sometimes I loose my words,
sometimes they just disappear
while we walk on the beach
see gulls flying away, flying off

but there is something in the silence
of touching mouths, in meandering steps
that leaves lonely tracks at the sea,
while words become more yours

are like morning glories waiting,
climbing over walls growing,
constantly growing and stretching
but always waiting on the summer sun

while my silences get some own distinct words
as you understand me to the depths of my soul
as your are filling every part of my life and body
but I want you to hear my voice in bliss and pain.

Troubled winds, of past heartaches, of a past war
still blows right through me, while you bring
a new kind of hope, new dreams and joy to life
and a new understanding of how things can be

and I want you to be my companion in everything,
to stay with me while the storm still roars in my life
to be constantly the only one that really knows me,
to follow me on every step in this ravaged world

but you constantly are in everything,
filling my life, my body, my mind
with your kisses, a kind of strange bliss
and that is the way that everything it is.
