RE: Philosophy of life... ah! the future, the future. ¡The North!
On a side note, stopped paying attention to wallet comments a long time ago, I don't see them as the best way to communicate anything but, some people love them. Personal preference.
The idea of 'Your North' is much like an examined life except, people feel that they have to find something rather than actually examine their life and see what it is. The North even talks about a direction away from the current point, an external movement rather than an internal discovery. In my opinion, once the discovery is made, the movement moves from within outward as the direction is obvious.
Yep! it's pretty much like you've said. The exploration and discovery journey is mandatory and key here. Otherwise, you would only be spinning on 'your own axis' perpetually without changes.
Well, I can't help it, you know. On the edge of the cliff from which I am sitting right now. This far ahead, in the future. After my own long trip observing things with my feet now hanging in the void. There is not much to find ahead in front of me. And maybe that's why I tend to enter currently more times than necessary into an examination/revisiting mode way too often.
I guess it's just a natural syndrome we the elders enjoy at these heights of our marathon. Just checking a bit back in the past to see and confirm if we've accomplished our mission on this planet. And then, if anything, just share with others the vision we had in the quest of our own 'norths' with the hopes that these experiences could be of any help for someone else.
As I've said before in my post, there is no infallible compass nor gps that will guide you to find the north. Any norths. There are no true norths to find whatsoever. Walker, the path is made by walking. And the route you choose to take, it will not always is gonna coincide with the map you had previously drawn at a given time.
The earth moves and constantly changes its course. And with it the people who populate it. The same as our solar system and the galaxy in which it is located. Therefore there is nothing static. And the norths can't be static either. In consequence, it is and always will be a mirage try to follow NORTHS of any sorts.
