Today’s entry will be a little bit more philosophical than yesterday’s. Some might say that I’m writing ‘all’ philosophy, but you must read in between the lines and extract both, the practicality and the practicability, from the things I will mention.
On that note, I would like to seriously discuss two philosophers. I am [...]

Love? Do you really love me?

Today I want to discuss an abstract topic: caring. I’m sure I’ve touched on it other posts, but today I’ll go a little more in depth into the idea of caring. Specifically, what I want to look at is the nature of caring we have and our proof of it.
How many times [...]
The Body and Us…

Today will have to be short and, yes, I mean short (not like last time).
I’m a little tied up with work, but in that work I was inspired to think about something interesting: our bodies. There seem to be two different ideas of the relationship we should be having with our bodies, espcially in the [...]
Time… what time is it?!

First, I should apologize since I wasn’t able to meet my daily quota for posts, which is coincidentally: one. I expected to return at about 10:00pm, but who would’ve thought that it’d turn out to be 12:30.
Anyhow, this brings me to another topic: the idea of time. Of course, time provides a whole load of questions [...]

Well, I’ll have to keep today’s post short, but I think it’s well worth it.
The Prophet Muhammad (may God bless him and grant him peace) was a remarkable example of what it means to be human, and I argue the apex and example of examples. That, of course, can be argued through different paradigmatical views; [...]
Curiosity and the Individual

Yesterday’s post was more about being an individual and who we are (or at least should be) as people. Just recapping, my main point was that everything is necessary but we must start properly.
Moreover, it is important to note that as people we are curious. If you’re Muslim, in the Qur’an we find [...]
Who we are…

In reading The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism by Weber, I began to consult myself about my own feelings, and to a large degree my idea of living in the West. Although living in the East would be moving from my known world to the unknown, having been born and having grown [...]
