PHILOSOPHY : Relationshipism
I am a Relationshipist.
Which basically means I believe the only important phenomenon in life is your relationship to other things. This could be as simple as your relationship to the chair you sit upon (the relationship being sitter and sitee), to the relationship between you and your lover. In a way this is quite budhist; the world is an illusion, what is real are the relationships in between.
The way to 'persue happiness' as a relationshipist is to persue the richest relationships you can; those relationships you have with other human beings (they certainly make better conversationists than chairs...). After all, if all that is real is your relationship with anything, then happiness can only be acheived through your relationships.
And, as with all religions, as it's main proponent I am a great hypocrite, as I am terrible at fostering the wonderful relationships I have with the people who love me.
Isn't that right Mark, Dwayne, Mum, Dad, Neeka, Ash, Cathie, Reece, Kylee, Mia, Rob/Bob, Jeff, Craig, Ron....
