about think about it

This group was created to discuss philosophy, philosophers, and personal reflections or revelations.  Discuss anything to your heart's content.  This is philosophy...so there are no wrong answers =)   Anything is fair game to discuss, please stay polite and respectful.

 This quote by al-Kindi (considered the father of Islamic Philosophy) I think it pretty much sums up what I wish this group to be.

"We ought not to be embarrassed of appreciating the truth and of obtaining it wherever it comes from, even if it comes from races distant and nations different from us. Nothing should be dearer to the seeker of truth than the truth itself, and there is no deterioration of the truth, nor belittling either of one who speaks it or  conveys it."

The first couple of blogs are just copies of older blogs.

I will try my best to start using my brain again. I have been so stagnated lately. I need to wake it up. So share with me and open my mind. Great group Hili.

Thanks for joining Grumps! *muah* Your mind is already open darlin' =)

I try honey. I know I used to be very hard headed with my beliefs. Believe it or not, the people on golo have helped me to become more open and accepting of others. There are so many different people on here. I just love meeting new people and learning more about them.

Well isn't this good timing! I would love to pick your brain out of the normal realm of golo! :)

I'm traveling the next 2 weeks, but after that buckle up daddy!

LOL, have at it Huck! Where are ya headed?

Oh I will! Headed to the beach! :)

Good afternoon! You had me at the title. What an excellent idea and I'm looking forward to it.

...ok Huck...I'm pretty jeaous about that...2 weeks?

Welcome Island =) I'm happy you're here!

Hi - don't be too jealous, lots of work involved. But I will say I'm heading to the Keys in June for another week - and that's a lot of work too. hehe I don't care how much work is involved there, some serious fun will be had!
