I Am Developing My Own Philosophy
Developing Philosophies Require More Than Just One Story Of Summation

Any rigorously implemented, continually updating set of ideals is too grand to confine into a 'story.' If you're developing your own philosophy, remember two things:
1. Don't ever stop developing it unless your scope of reality suddenly becomes infinite in size.
2. Devote any profile of yours entirely to this philosophy, as it is composed of constituents, each of which needs refinement, discussion, etc. for as long as you hold it. If new data makes an ideal look stupid, delete it from your list of "this applies to me"s, but reserve it in a cache in case it ever becomes useful or pertinent again in the future.
Philosophies require agile development -- not 'completion.'
