After class on Monday I was very surprised that I was placed with
Idealism. Now that I know more about each philosophy from class, I especially
do not agree with my placement. When I look at the descriptions of each other
philosophy, I find that I identify with all the others more than idealism.
Idealists seem to only look for the “ultimate truth” rather than information
that is already presented to them. They already have an idea of this ultimate
truth should be. It’s this idea that makes them stagnant and unmoving in
different areas. There are plenty of good traits that I do think I fall in line
with such as, values. Idealists believe that values are rooted in existence and
are part of reality. It is this that I believe to be relevant to my own life.
Strong values make a person who they are whether that person is good or bad.
Overall, I cannot say that I agree with my placement but I do understand how I
may have aligned with it.
