How Blah Blah Black Sheep can help you discover more about yourself and the world around you

Hello! Welcome to Blah Blah Black Sheep.

I decided to start this blog about using philosophy as a guide to improve many areas of our lives, to not only better ourselves but those around us as well. More than just a page of philosophy quotes, (although, you will probably find a few) here you'll learn how applying basic principles to help guide us through complicated topics, can improve not only our quality of life but give us greater meaning, depth and satisfaction from it too. Not to mention, philosophy is one of the most profound and meaningful subjects out there and has a lot to offer.

It is also a time where it’s more important than ever before to be able to think for yourself and reach an independent conclusion about information that’s being provided to you.

Moving away from the ‘doom and gloom’ realms of philosophy (even though they can be fascinating at times) I will also cover other questions and topics here, such as; exploring theories of self and consciousness, political ethics, wellbeing, conceptions of reality, conditions of happiness and more.

I have been lucky enough to study various philosophies from all over the world and from throughout the ages, from the ancient Greeks to modern-day psychoanalysis.

And have had the opportunity to study in-depth different branches of philosophy as well as a number of topics such as; theories of mind, consciousness and being, metaphysics, the natural philosophy of the ancients, religion, the self and society, and much more.

The first thing I want people to know about philosophy is that it can be applied to literally any area of your life. And I mean literally, anywhere.

From learning about the nature of some of the biggest theories of knowledge such as rationalism, empiricism, realism and idealism, and so on, you will be able to critically analyse many aspects of your life and in turn be able to make better, wiser, and more informed decisions.

Not sure what those things are or where to start?

Don't worry!

This is where Blah Blah Black Sheep comes in! There is so much 'stuff' to soak up from the philosophy world, how can you access all of it in a way that’s useful to you? This is where covering the foundational concepts taught by some of the most iconic, groundbreaking philosophers from throughout history comes in.

I make sure things are explained in a way that is digestible and easily applicable to you and is usable in modern-day life.
