Consequences of Believing our Senses > An intro-introduction

I have decided to start writing a philosophy I have been working on for the last year. I didn't know I was working on a philosophy a year ago and I am not sure if that's the right way to think about it, but now that I have made this my number one goal in life many things have cleared up.The nice thing about philosophy is that you don't need anybody or anything to do it, and you don't need to be anywhere at any particular time in order to think about it. On the bus, in my bed, painting a picture, riding my bike, are all examples of times that I have had the most interesting thinking experiments. It is my life goal to create my own philosophy and that is a goal that I know I will never reach. Having that as my number one goal, however, allows everything else to be more relaxed and filled with less tension. If my goal in life was to sail around the world in a giant piece of macaroni I might be tense that I couldn't do it. But now that I know I can't ever reach this bigger goal and that there are no other goals to be my "number-one-most-important-life-goal-ever-that-has-been" I can relax knowing that I can not fail in life.

This doesn't mean that I'm going to wake up late tomorrow and not go to class and not try to be the best animator/visual effects artist in the world. I have more than one goal in my life and I hope to accomplish all of them. But knowing that my biggest goal is one I will never reach is a good feeling that will probably help me achieve the smaller goals in a classier more composed manner. If there's anything I wan't to be, it's classy.

So this essay is going to be presented in parts, each one revealed as I write it. The order I am planning on goes as such:

-Entropy
-Evolution
-Work and Negentropy
-Consciousness
-Quality and perception

We will see if I stick to this... Also, I think I might call the whole thing "Consequences of Believing our Senses" Sounds pretty catchy to me, and the whole thing came as a result of believing my senses, and our senses are strictly relative to our conscious and our bodies meaning that the consequences for each might be slightly different for each, for each of us has had different senses but sensed them the same way. There is a lot to that title that I could explain but that's what the essay is for.
