People see the world through glasses made by their ancestors, their environments, and themselves. Our world view influences or even determines what we believe and what we do. Consider carefully your world view.
By Mark D, Harris
Weltanschauung, the German word for worldview, allows us to interpret our otherwise confusing world. Our metanarrative, the overarching story, provides our weltanschauung, and gives meaning to our existence by answering four existential questions:
- Who are we (am I)?
- Where did we (I) come from?
- What went wrong in the world?
- Where are we (am I) going?
