Your Worldview

Your worldview is the structure of ideas, values, assumptions, beliefs, hopes, dreams, aspirations, desires, emotions, attitudes, and ideals within which you live. It's the home of your wisdom and virtue. Some such homes of the soul are bigger than others. Some are better built and sturdier than others. Far too many are tiny cold bare and uncomfortable shacks, when they need not be. We use the materials around us to do our building. Some people just move into the lodgings of others. But we all have choices.

Your worldview is how you interface with the broader world. Will it be a place of preparation and restoration, a base camp for all your highest ascents and adventures, or a mere fortress against what you don't like or trust? We build our own worldviews, stone by stone. Take care what you construct and the shape in which you keep it.
