Hi,
I'm interested in how the world "works", and what's behind all the things, I have had this interest throughout all of my life.
It's astonishing and impressive what's going on "behind the curtain" - meaning : Outside the materialistic aspect of Life.
You're getting close to how I am sometimes. Say...Has anyone taken philosophy and psychology courses in college? There is a common idea where "practical" people often dismiss philosophy because they think it's too vague or uncertain but I've found that sometimes it does indeed alter your perception of the world around you. I think it forces some people to look closer at life. Life isn't just getting up, having a job, and then simply deciding to retire when the day ends. There's more to it. Every action and decision often reflects much about ourselves. For example, within the field of ethics, deciding on the benefits and detriments associated with sharing your moral convictions can be done because it is a more practical choice associated with logic. Simply weigh the pros and cons carefully and you'll be able to make a good decision. Establishing those moral convictions however requires some soul-searching though. This step is much more abstract. Only a small number of people will take the time to carefully evaluate their moral stand on these issues. Their values often reflect their home, school, or religion. Coming to grips with these issues ultimately allows an individual to reach a moral position that's right for them. A position they can ultimately understand and defend.
Oh well...Enough philosophy...
Role playing and spirituality is interesting to me personally. Magic is not only in the game but also in the world. Something that is "magical" can be subjective. To some people, the 'twinkle' of an innocent smile in a child's eye is magical. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Thanks.
