Worldview Essay: Refitting the Pieces
My three components’ that make up my world view are human nature, ultimate reality, and knowledge, b/c they shaped my thoughts, experiences, education and life decisions. I have found that human nature leads to make the decisions in our lives whether it is good or bad. Whether you follow the rules of others or us. My 2nd marriage with an older man, who loves all of our kids and me. The first guy I was married to he was unkind man. After we got married he would beat and cheat on me. I have find that all of the people I have studied in this course where all kind of one sided. Where I eye don’t like to say any of the other worldviews are wrong even if some of it I may or may not understand. The education and life decisions I have are 2 years tech school for health care, and all grades k-12. My life decisions have never always been good but they have never been ones that would get me killed or put in jail, like the time when I was 4 and I took some gum from the store after my dad told me no then he whipped me all the way home and back to the store .
Ultimate reality is something I have always liked looking into watching things about ghosts and other things that go bump in the night. Now you must know that when I say ultimate reality yes, god can be put into those terms for the fact that no one has really ever seen him. But that’s not what I mean for I know god is here and everywhere around, and he is good, b/c how would we all be here if he wasn’t. What I mean by this is ghosts and demons. Yes god is good but I believe that all souls not our bodies for they died and go back in to the ground, but our souls or placed in these bodies for god to see us act out what’s in our souls. And when the body dies if you were bad or you just don’t know your dead yet that you don’t go to hell you stay on earth for there isn’t a hell but the one here on earth away from living with god.my experiences with ghosts and demons are when I was little about 6 b/c of the fact my little brother was born around that time. I had to go to the bathroom and we were all asleep in the living room b/c our upstairs was being work on at the time but there was the only bathroom in the house up stairs. I have never liked the dark as most kids do, but this night when I was about to turn the light on to go up the steps it blew. Then I saw a figure of a women who started talking to me and telling me to come up stairs or she was going to tell my dad on me, of Couse I didn’t go up there instead I peed in a bowl and poured it down the sink in the kitchen then went back to bed the next morning I asked my dad who was the lady up stairs and he was like what lady so I told him and he was like who, what. Then after he looked around upstairs thinking someone had broken in the house and he find nothing there he said you were dreaming then when he was washing dishes he saw the bowl I had peed in. my education in the fact that ghosts and demons are real come from the fact that growing up in a haunted house were things would fall out or off of shelf’s and laid half way a crossed the room instead of where they would fall if it had just fell out. Beds falls off their beams when my dad had just put them in with nuts and bolts and no one was laying on it or even in the room. Others who I have seen or heard their stories now yes I know not all of them are real but I’m really good at seeing the ones that are for the fact I have lived through it myself. Knowledge is something we not only learn in school but in life as we grow older as well. Knowledge the fact of know and learning about new thing in school and day to day life. The fact is that we never stop learning so there for we never stop gaining knowledge about the things and people around us. Is the fact that every day I learn something new whether it is about thing in the world or my kids even I. to back all of this up knowledge I’ve learn is not something that stops everyone everywhere will and have still to this day will learn new things. Just like when everyone thought the world was flat. In this course my worldviews have not changed at all I have like learn about some of the people that share some of my same worldviews, and how they look at other things in this world.
My world of everything is based on these 3 things human nature the thing that put us part from animals. Ultimate realty the things that we can’t see but know in our hearts and minds that are there, and last knowledge for without it we would have never began to have seen the things that not only help us live life but the thing that also help us to know that the others things in life have a bigger meaning. Faith plays in to all of this whether we know it or not. My faith plays in to everything I do even if it’s something simple like picking a shade of paint out for a room. Things I have found hard about this is getting everything down on paper.
