Now that I have started blogging, one has to wonder what I would talk about. I, at first, wanted this to be a place where I could put some of my poems and stories and i might still do that, however, I think it might be a good place for me to rant and rave about different philosphical questions and theories that I might hear. Philosophy has always been a big interest in my life, so big in fact I am going to school for it. I am not sure if I am going to major in it anymore though, I am still going to minor in it, but my interests have now turned more toward writing. I know that one can write in philosophy, after all that is pretty much all it is, though I am interested in writing about other things instead of just philosophy.
I do understand that people actually get paid for writing about philosophy and their own personal philosophies at that. However, that is relatively new in the field, most of the classic and even modern (modern I mean mid-ninteenth to early twentith centery, the modern era) would have to write their philosophical papers and books in their spare time or as essays for the university they happen to be working in. Thus, gaining no fiscal income from their philosophical work. So, since I am using this blog as my spare time writing tool, I think that perhaps I will talk philosophy. Also, I might put a movie review or two in this.
One last note, while I am writing about philosophy on here, I might use some big philosophical words. Now, I am not trying to show off, I am just using them because they are easier than writing out what they mean. Of course you can always look them up, or ask me if you aren't sure what they mean, I am not trying to make myself look high and mighty when I use them, nor am I trying to show how smart I am, I am simply using them because they condence bigger meanings into simple words thus, making it easier to write. Don't feel dumb if at times you don't know what I am talking about, because after all, I had to learn the words too. I am using this blog to share what I have learned and what I happen to think to teach others, and by doing so I will gladdly teach you the words too if you ask me.
