What makes us who we are? eyes? hair? race? sex?
The outlook you have on the world, on yourself and on the people who surround you. Also the way you think and feel and express yourself play a very big role.
Where do you call home?
For now, nothing. No matter where I lived, I could never call that place home, and I am hoping that sometime in the future I will find that place.
What hardships will you face? ... or better yet, what hardships will you overcome?
Definitely finishing up my college education and moving on and getting my Ph. D. hopefully. Also settling down and getting my own place and getting my first time real and stable job that could support me in every way.
What makes you happy?
Peace, quiet and tranquility. And also having balance and freedom in my life.
What are your passions?
Nature explorations, hiking, swimming and just being out there in the world and making some kind of a difference no matter how small or big it is. Also i enjoy traveling and reading and martial arts.
If you could do it all over again, what would you change? relationships? choices? directions?
Even though I know that your past is what makes you in the present, i would really love to have the chance to go back to my old high school days and take back the mess and trouble and pain that I have caused.
What experience would you relive?
Lets just say the good ones.
And what will you be remembered for?
Hopefully the contributions that I will make to the community and to make this world be a safer and a happier place to live in.

1. What we stand for and believe in makes us who we are.

2. Quote the creater of this thread "Home is where the heart is." So I am currently homeless in that sense.

3. The ones that I can blast out of the water, ignore the rest.

4.Music is all that makes me happy any more (go stoicism!)

5. What Passions?

6. For this one why not forget the past and look ahead to the future?

7. Keep the ones that I have learned relive nothing.

8. Ah my favorite question...what will I be remember by or for? This is one question that no one can give a straight answer for, people can say that they wanna be remembered by this or that, but the fact that they might get rememberd by what the want, is slim to nil, so to you my answer to your question, is I dont know what I will be rememberd by, because only time can tell the answer to that.

What makes us who we are? eyes? hair? race? sex?
None of those things, you can change your sex, color your hair, put in lenses that color your eyes in a different tone and you can even change you skin color, face, body structure and so one.
What makes us who we are are what's inside and with that I don't mean our kidneys, lungs, ribs and so on, I mean our thoughts, feelings, emotions and so on. Those are special for each and every one of us. Of course you can try and change it all, but there will stil be something that comes out and makes the people closest to you remember who you really are.

Where do you call home?
Once I was sleeping in my boyfriends arms, in the house, where I had lived all my life and I thought: "I want to go home." That was the moment I realized something is really wrong between me and my bf (he ended up hitting me in the face two months later and I haven't talked to him ever since).
The place I call home would be in the arms of my beloved one. I think I might have found the real one now; even from afar he makes me feel such sweet happiness... But I'm still looking forward to finding out how it really feels to be in his arms- I'll know when it's right ^^

What hardships will you face? ... or better yet, what hardships will you overcome?
What odd question... If you mean "What hardships can you overcome?" then I think I can get over almost everything. Loosing the one I really love could be really, really hard... But I guess I'd have to get over even that, because I'm terribly against suicide... might come out slightly mad or forever more depressed, but I don't think I'd have the happiness to die (I'm a very healthy gal)
If you mean: "What hardships do you expect to have?" then I suppose I'll have some hard time with making my parents like my boyfriend and with transfering into a different religion and with deciding where and how I want to live and work. I aint really looking forward to those things, but I'll be strong!

What makes you happy?
Ray ^^ He makes me really, really happy, he's funny and cute and always optimistic, it's grate to have him around. If he's not there I'm not really happy.
Other little things would be eating- chocolate, porridge, bread with jam, chicken and many other... *drools*- sleeping, getting good grades, playing computer games, chatting with friends and others, but again- if Ray's not around it's not perfect :P

What are your passions?
Ummmm O.o it must be writing... I'm quite confused about the term "passions", I'm not really that passionate of a person, for example, I almost never use the word "beautiful" or "amazing", I stick with "cute", because not many things are really amazing. It could also be connected with the question above, because, if I'm not happy, I can't appriciate what's around me.
Well I guess music still can really take me away and somemovies like "Fifth Element" and sometimes, when I'm in a special mood, John Ronald Ruel Tolkien's book "the Silmarillion" can really make me say: "How wonderfull!"

If you could do it all over again, what would you change? relationships? choices? directions?
Nothing. I don't really regret anything and I know that changing things might create a "today" that is so much worse that what I live through now, I'm not willing to take the risk...

What experience would you relive?
Right now... nothing really... there is no moment I remember that well and remember as so amazing I would want to relive it again, but I hope there is something in the future ^^

And what will you be remembered for?
Well if for something then that could be only my writting (if you mean "rembered by more than just your family and closest friends"). I doubt my silly stories will ever be popular enough though, but I try...

Hi there, philosopher. What do I think?

1) Our choices define who we are (remember Batman Begins?).

2) Home is where the heart is. My heart is where I am right now. Therefore, where I am right now is home. Hurr hurr hurr.

3) All sorts of hardships. As long as it matters, though; don't expect me to climb Mount Everest just for kicks.

4) See Ray's post. What makes me feel happy, though, is the satisfaction of finally finishing Dawkins's The God Delusion.

5) I have a passion for learning new things, seeing new places, and... helping people out with philosophical questions such as these.

6) That's difficult to say... Haven't seen the rest of my life yet. Why would I want to change something that could've played a key role in changing my life for the better?

7) Ditto here.

8) I'd like to be remembered for being a good person.

There. I must admit it's somewhat sketchy.
