I know why I want to take philosophy. But I always seem to forget why when questioned, or when I try to write it down. I want to take philosophy because it reminds me and challenges me to live life the way it is fully intended to be lived.  I want to take philosophy because though I may have thought through the same issues and even arrived at a conclusion for many of them, I need to be reminded over and over again of what I have discovered and I need to be motivated to put these discoveries to action. Every time I come back to an issue I learn something new. Every time I explain my view on the issue to someone else, I learn something more. I need these different perspectives and reminders to continue my goal of living life and also increase my wisdom and how to do just that. Thinking is the inspiration and philosophy helps me think and remember. I will never satisfy my craving for wisdom and I never desire to stop learning, growing, and getting remodeled. I never want to take life for granted or live in an unsatisfactory way. And I want to share what I have learned with the world, in order to teach and to learn. And I want to do this through film. That’s my creative outlet. I am absolutely sure that these are things and the ways in which God intends to use me. The philosophy is for you God, for “the unexamined life is not worth living”.  And I am even more convinced of the rationality in believing in you and I intend to use what I learned in philosophy to teach others what I know about you and how I know it. I’m one of those Christian who attempts to show the most skeptical, stubborn, and atheist people the rationality of believing in you. I won’t be able to convince everyone, and I guarantee I’ll learn along with them, and I’ll doubt along with them, and I’ll question along with them until we satisfactorily come to the knowledge of you. I know that this is my gift, and I may be horrible at convincing people to come to church or grow in their face, but I can help those in doubt who are philosophically searching or rebuking you.

And I know that I can use film to teach what I have learned. I know that these are paths that are honorable to you, and that is a great thing to know.
