Sorry readers, I'm a little bit sick right now, so don't expect any brilliance from me...
the main character of Jim Butcher's the Dresden files, Harry Dresden shows signs of having a deep and very strong personal philosophy. Harry is a wizard, an individual who uses arcane knowledge to affect the actual world, embodying the indo-european belief that having a deeper understanding of the world grants us power. Dresden also shows signs of stoicism, bearing all personal pain and suffering for the sake of his beliefs and ideals, refusing to trade them for anything. On the other hand he shows obvious signs of a disregard for the future in an epicurean fashion, refusing to consider it and doing as best fits his beliefs dictate at the moment, starting a war for the sake of a single person and creating a power vacuum as he ends that war. What he unfortunately doesn't realize is that this power vacuum would cause even more suffering amongst people everywhere. Likely, he would be praised in the indo-european way of thought that teaches that the soul is immortal and must be well-kept rather than the semitic which believes that all things have an end and would have cursed him for his length of foresight.
This blog is just here to help me put my thoughts down. Physically I am human, and 17 years old. Regardless of what you do, who you are, or where you live, the fact of the matter is that we must live in the now, not in dreams or hopes, to create a better tomorrow. That is the truth as I see it, my core belief, the quintessential element of my being. I wish I could write more in the description, but I am afraid that my limits at 500 characters. Peace.
