The Philosophical Questions
In this quarter age, I could finally say it’s important to figure out (the keyword) the answers to philosophic questions. A very fundamental of becoming a human. The sole reason for our existence and what’s coming next after. For some questions, we may not find the answers in short time, indeed. It may take a whole span of life, probably. Here’s the list of 25 philosophical questions I ask to myself ever since my childhood (I guess I was just into philosophy since a very young age). The 25 itself represent my age. I did this because I always think that to deal with other humans, I need to understand myself first, I need to have a deep conversation about my value and purpose. I reckon so.
- Why do I exist?
- What is my role in this world?
- What is my essential faith and spirituality?
- What God do I believe?
- What is my dream?
- What is my value?
- How do I value myself?
- What is my life purpose?
- How important is having a friend or a soulmate?
- How do I value my friend or soulmate?
- How do I value my family?
- What exactly are my responsibilities in the family?
- What are my strengths?
- What are my weaknesses?
- Am I living my best life?
- Am I in liberty?
- What really sparks me joy when I do something?
- To what extent do I believe in my own intuition?
- What is my boundary in every kind of aspect?
- What is my contribution in the community?
- Why should I do ‘this’ instead of ‘that’?
- What do I want to become in the next 5 years?
- What do I want to become in the next 20 years?
- What do I want to achieve before dying?
- When I die, who do I want to be with in the very last days?
I’d wager you have much more life questions than this. I hope those questions are thought-provoking enough, therefore, we can break our limiting beliefs. Let the mind wander, because that’s exactly what makes human human.
