I want to walk like snow falls

So I was thinking about how I spend a lot of my free time in my mind, thinking things through. That’s right, thinking about thinking. Awesome.

Anywise, I thought of how I liked teaching people new things, because I always learn something new myself. This is one of the principle reasons why I would like to become a teacher. Then I thought of our symposium, and how we were literally teaching each other philosophy, based on our own experiences. I thought of how I learned something about myself, through teaching my philosophy.
This is because I am the subject.

Is philosophy simply trying to teach others about yourself?

So, what do I take away from this weekend besides a face sore from grinning and a body weary of movement? Well, a lot. Probably a lot more than I could ever convey in a single blog post. Its impressive how much more can be done when you don’t sleep. Makes me want to get back on the six day week. Anywise, sometime this morning between three and six, we finally got around to philosophizing. Two things I hope I remember from that:
1) In the bible, Jesus’ elastic clause can be interperted as each person’s law, not just the pope’s.
2)…shit, I forgot it. I knew this would happen.

I think it is finally time for sleep.
