11th grade English My Own Philosohpy of Life I have to admit that I hadn ' t thought much about my life ' s philosophy until this year. Previously, I just lived everyday as it morals came, hardly thinking about the values and mxar±x that 1 lived by. ou could say that it was much of a superficial existence; my exist- ence this year has become a lot heavier in my thinking. The world has become too intense to just sit bgck and watch. What, with all the student demonstrations against the War in Viet am, the horrifying race riots throughout our nation, the crime that infests each Amer- ican city... one cannot just live i a life separated and alienated from the outside reality. But it is the reality within our own minds which we taust seek in order to discover ourselves and try to determine our roles upon this universe. I don ' t believe in God anymore, mush less do I believe that b e created existence and the universe. I ' ve become quite the scientific thinker (in a sense) and have be coem a true follower of eveolutionxary thought. I don ' t believe in following the crowd, and am a true seeker of individuality: in thought, in actions, in belief. I don ' t believe we were put here for a purpose yet, rather, we are all mere chemical accidents of evolution. (I ' his must seem pretty depressing!}! but it is a reality that we all must contend with.) Live and let live, is ay basic philsophy. , ith that, and a lot of love, the world would be a place of peace.
