Perhaps there are none more lazy, or more truly ignorant, than your everlasting readers.

Live your philosophy.
Philosophy must be alive.
Philosophy is beyond words.
Philosophy,
real philosophy, is action.[/SIZE]

REAL Philosophy is a red herring: you can't take it with you when you die.

Actually, I understand that
a penchant for REAL philosophy can stay with you life/after/life.[/SIZE]

Actually, you misunderstood. Philosophy transcends any one person's life; but, one person's penchant for it doesn't "rollover."
well apparently.. your hypocrisy is dead...
Shucks, that was my favorite hypocrisy. Well, I can always get a new one; but, it won't be the same...

That's just me and
I do not expect anyone else to understand or agree.
Thank you for your civility and for participating in a thread that for many, would be difficult to approach.

REAL actuality is in understanding that an expectation of individual penchants rolling over is just another way of the id trying to justify to the ego believing in continued existence after death. It's often seen in people about your age who are facing their own mortality and trying to escape finality through bargaining for an afterlife by presenting a
quest that requires more than one lifetime to achieve. The more desperate the person, the more people they have to tell about their quest. It's kinda, sorta, maybe similar to a mid-life crisis only it's for people who are self induced delusional about death rather than just disillusioned by life. I don't expect you to understand or agree with me, it's inconsequential, even if your superego never kicks in you'll find out for yourself when you die anyway.

It's always nice to be appreciated.

I appreciate your post and your attempt in understanding.
When I was young, a very young adult, I had, what I call, a deep understanding.
Through that understanding I realized that we will never experience death. We repeat our lives, more-or-less the same, over and over again.
I'm not certain about anything in life but this deep understanding left me with one certainty; we never experience death.
I don't expect anyone else to believe or support this position.
All the best to you.

Do you realize that when you say "we" you're projecting your belief system on everyone else; or, is there more than one of you in there Bill? Do you realize that it's the height of arrogance and/or ignorance to contradict other people's belief systems instead of just speaking for yourself by saying "I will never experience death." Do you realize that disclaimers aren't going to alibi your failed attempt at rationalizing developmentally impaired perspectives? Do you realize that when you wish me "All the best" that you're excluding yourself as you haven't risen to that level?
The above questions are rhetorical, good day.

REAL philosophy requires plenty of GIFs and empty spaces. Apparently.
