SNIP:

Time to take a blank sheet of possibilities, like a sheet of paper and transform it into an origami creature, perhaps a bird … breathe life into it and set it in flight, across the wide expanse of the mind. Soaring and diving... gliding by, a form of life in expression, composed of the four elements that themselves were materialized out of the aether; the FIRE of existence, the life-breath of AIR, the pulsing of WATER as the blood, ...and the very animated, galvanized substance of EARTH. This is the dance of the elements and we are all compositions of them, expressing in Space, through Time and engaging, as well as initiating, Causation.

Every single one of us manages our life, according to a philosophy. It might be poorly composed. It might be intricate and as beautiful as a Tiffany Egg. We all have some kind of a plan, even if it is no plan at all beyond basic appetites, impulses or reactions, it turns into a plan upon reflection, on down The Road of Hindsight Regret. It still qualifies as an operating system, which is what a philosophy is. Our life is an expression of this philosophy and whether it is a resounding and celebrated success, or an epic fail, can be traced back to the efficacy of that philosophy. When we consider the idea of philosophy, those of us informed about the idea of philosophy, KNOW that there are many more philosophies than there are colors of the rainbow, many more than there are flavors of ice cream, more even than there are shades of color. They can't all be right. HOWEVER... more than one can be rock solid and efficacious in its every facet, as it applies to the person who holds it.
