Philosophy

Intrigued by the thick, red velvet binding and golden letters, you wander over to the Philosophy book and open it up. On the first page, you find several neatly written quotations:

Presence

In all my life, In all my glory, never once have I felt that the love I could get to its very fullest was touched upon me. I only watched as other people seemed to have found it so easily. I continued searching on a long ideal trail to my future.where I looked and looked and found that my happiness was infact there. For I had not found it yet. And that is what every man and women needs to know.

Look in the mirror. What do you see? A personage in high school, average height, so forth. Well, look again and look harder. If you get really good at it, then you can see what you really are. I'm not talking about the hair, I'm talking about SOUL. What kind of person are you anyway? Take time out and really think about it. Evaluate who you really are. No, I don't mean criticizing every little flaw; I mean the good stuff. Think about the times when you really shone, or when you felt really good. Also, discover your good qualities and hidden talents! You may be surprised. Feel happy and have some fun! Everything will come into perspective if you are contemplating something. Smile and your self image will look up. If at times, you feel down, or really don't know what to do, look in the mirror and see your true self.

As you skim through the book, you notice that there are empty pages for your own thoughts.
