Philosophy Life Examination

My Life Examination First of all, my previous essay was a part of my life examination. I am glad you caught me on plagiarizing because now I really know that you read all of our essays. Unfortunately a few of my classmates and I did have doubts about it. Also, I feel like I can argue a lot for plagiarizing, but that is not what this assignment is about. Even though I agree with Sergey Trufanov’s ideas about life in general, I do not feel like I can explore them further and simply reciting them would also be considered as plagiarism.

But I do have my own conclusions about life examination, disappointments, and death. I cannot say that I am a philosopher, just like I cannot say that I can speak English. In order to claim that, a person needs to be comfortable using his tools to be considered a professional, which unfortunately, I am not, but I do believe that my ideas deserve to exist and to be explored in philosophical ways. Life examination. To examine life you need to test it, challenge it. Everyone knows that you won’t know till you try, but for some reason not everyone does it.

In my opinion it is better to do something and regret it than not do anything and regret not even trying. It refers even to the smallest things, like a new flavor of ice-cream. How would you know that you do not like it unless you taste it? Trying things is the only way to figure them out. I have so much of personal experience about trying new things, and it proved itself every single time. Like when I came to United States five years ago; I did not speak a word of English, I did not know how to drive, I was scared beyond belief, but trying new things got me to where I am.

It is okay to be scared, but it is not okay not to challenge your fears and examine life in every way possible with everything that raises questions. Here I agree with Socrates “The unexamined life is not worth living. ” Disappointments. Disappointments are worthless. They are based on our expectations of results. If you do not want to be disappointed, stop waiting for things and people to meet your expectations. We all are our own people. We do not live to please everyone around us. Why expect everyone around me to please me, if I am not doing it for everyone else?

Why expect a sunny day and get disappointed if it rains? I am not the center of the universe, so why should it be sunny for me? We are causing things to upset us and at the same time we are blaming everyone and everything else. Of course people are selfish, it is just a human nature, but if we are selfish, why do we let things ruin our lives simply by expecting good things to happen? Everyone is trying to do whatever makes them happy and feels good. Why get disappointed if it upsets us. People are so controversial. Death.

I agree with Arthur Schopenhauer on the subject of death. Crying for dead is like crying for someone who was never born. Why we are so scared of death? We all know that we are going to die, so I believe that being ready for it is more important than being scared of it. But how can we be ready? Well, examining life to its fullest would do the trick. Doing new things, answering questions, exploring the unknown, all of that makes death just one of the projects. Possibly one the last ones, but we do not know, till we try.

We are scared of death because we do not know what is waiting for us after we leave this world and this life. But exploring everything here and now makes it easier and simpler to move on and accept the fact that we are done. Thinking that after we die the world will not be the same is just another example of human selfishness. How many people have died before us? How many will die after? And the universe is still here, it is still growing, it is still alive. One death is just one drop in the ocean; it will not change the world.

And Schopenhauer’s quote “Matter, which now lies before you as dust and ashes now, dissolved in water, will settle as crystal, will shine in a metal, scatter electric sparks in a galvanic voltage show the power, that by expanding the strongest connection, turn the earth mass into metal; and not only that: by itself it will embody in plant and animal, from its mysterious womb will produce the very life, the loss of which you are so afraid of in your narrow-mindedness” shows that we never die completely, therefore being afraid of death thinking that without us the world will not be the same is very much silly.

As you can see, in this essay I did not use any philosophical terms, but this is My Life Examination, in my life I do not use terms, I use simple language because like Einstein said “If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. ”
