Philosophy of Life

PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE Personal philosophy is a shoe which fits me and no one else. I cannot claim that my philosophy is good for everyone. All I know is that it is good for me. No one can teach you A philosophy of life. You must teach yourself. Used to be a serial on tv called The Lone Ranger, A cowboy hero who solved problems for others : And their disrupted community got settled again - But he disappeared before they even realized he’d gone. Then they always asked, “Who was that masked man?” Corny, I know, but it impacted me then When I was fourteen…….. and it still does. I want to leave no evidence of my personal presence, Just good results and benefits which are long-lasting. I don’t want or need rounds of applause or floodlights. Please just allow me now to solve the next problem. I want to leave no footprints in the sand, No marks of my shoe and its worn-out sole.
