your philosophy is just you projecting your psychology onto the world
true. For we are primarily spirits. And everything we create is an extension of our inner being. Even the scientific method was created as a process of finding acceptable thought in one mans eyes.
I actually wanted to put history in there because the time period in which you happen to live often influences your perspective on things (your view of life). Something like social/historical environment, perhaps. For example, if I were born about 300 years ago I would probably have had a slightly different view of life (as a woman). You can see this difference in thinking every time you talk to your grandparents, or other old folks you happen to talk to.
