“WHAT I’VE LEARNED IN PHILOSOPHY”
 Introduction

IN PHILOSOPHY I’VE LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT THE FACES

OF WISDOM AND THE PHENOMENON THAT HAPPENS
EVERYTIME THE HUMAN PERSON REACTS AND BEHAVES ON
THE WORLD IT STEP IT’S FOOT ON, AND THE TICK OF THE TIME
WHEN ALL ENDS IN THE FINAL JOURNEY OF LIFE. IT ALSO
SPEAKS ABOUT THE THEORIES AND MYSTERIES ABOUT THE
ORIGIN OF THE WORLD. BELIEVE ME SOMETIMES PHILOSOPY
CAN BE A BIT OF TWISTY TO HANDLE BUT PERHAPS IT’S JUST
LOGICALLY INCLINED DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION. THE
HUMAN MIND DOES’NT EXIST TO RESIST THE POWER OF
KNOWLEDGE BUT RATHER IT TRIUMPH IT’S POWER FOR THE
GREAT OR GOOD OF EACH AND EVERYONE. WE JUST NEED TO
ACCEPT THAT KNOWLEDGE IS THERE WAITING FOR US TO
EXPLORE ITS VALUE AND THE ASSETS THAT WE MIGHT KNOW
FOR US TO BECOME KNOWLEDGEABLE.

PHILOSOPHY
TALKING ABOUT THE FIRST LESSON THAT I’VE INCOUNTERED ON THIS SUBJECT, IS THAT I’VE

DETERMINED WHAT PHILOSOPHY IS ALL ABOUT, AND THAT IS FROM THE WORD PHILO IN GREEK

MEANS LOVE AND SOPHY THAT MEANS WISDOM, THE EXACT METAPHOR OF “LOVE OF WISDOM IS THE

KEY OF LOVING THE EXISTENCE OF LIFE”. IN ADDITION IT TACKLED ABOUT THE DEFFERENT TYPES AND

BRANCHES OF PHILOSOPRHY AND THEIR DIFFERENT MEANINGS FROM THE ORIGIN, THE MORALITY,

THE BEAUTY, THE SCIENTIFICAL, THE MATHEMATICAL AND THE PHILOSOPHICAL THEORIES OF

PHILOSOPHERS AND SCIENTISTS FROM THE PAST ANCIENT TIMES UP UNTIL THIS PRESENT.

FROM THE BRANCHES OF PHILOSOPHY IT GIVED ME THE IDEA OF KNOWING THE UNIQUE FUNCTIONS

OF EACH PHILOSOPHY AND ITS IMPORTANCE WHY WE VALUED THEM SO MUCH,MOREOVER

PHILOSOPHY ALSO HAVE PERSONS THAT ARE INVOLVELD THAT CONNECTS TO THIER THEORIES WHICH

ARE MORE COMMONLY CALLED PHILOSOPHERS. THEY GAVE A CERTAIN KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE

PHENOMENON, THE PROBLEMS, THE MYSTERIES, AND MANY MORE, ACTUALLY PHILOSOPHERS

CREATES SOMETHING THAT MAKES AN IMPOSIBLE, BE POSSIBLE BY USING ONLY THE POWER OF THE

HUMAN MIND.

METHODS OF PHILOSOPHIZING
THE SECOND LESSON THAT I’VE LEARNED IN PHILOSOPHY IS THE IMPORTANCE OF PHILOSOPHIZING

WHICH IS A WAY TO REVEAL THE THRUTH ABOUT THE VARIOUS STAGES OF LIFE AND EVERYTHING

ASSOCIATED WITH IT, AND TO REVEAL THE FULFILLMENT OF THE PURPOSE FOR EACH STAGE OF THE

LIFE AND TO EXPRESS THE WAY FOR THE REALIZATION OF THESE THINGS ARE IN A RELEVANT WAY, IN

ORDER TO OBTAIN THE BEST COMPROMISE OF ALL THAT WE FACE. ON THE OTHER HAND OR IN THE

SIMPLIEST TERMS, PHILOSOPHIZING IS TO THINK OR EXPRESS ONESELF IN A PHILOSOPHICAL

MANNER.THROUGH PHILOSOPHIZING I’VE LEARNED THAT WHETHER WE ARE USING LOGICAL

THINKING, SPIRITUALITY OR ANY OTHER MEANS TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING, BUT EVENTUALLY, IT

MUST GUIDE US TO AN ESSENTIAL (DEEPER) UNDERSTANDING ABOUT OURSELVES AND PLACE WHERE

WE LIVE AND THAT CAN BE USED BY US TO MAKE A BETTER ADJUSTMENT IN ALL THAT WE FACE.

ACCORDING TO GABRIEL MARCEL PHILOSOPHIZING CLARIFIES THAT PHILOSOPHY IS NOT LIKE THE

SCIENCE THAT HAVE A CLEAR METHOD IN ARRIVING AT TRUTHS. ALSO IT TACKLED ABOUT THE

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY IN ARRIVING CONCLUSION OF A PROCESS WHICH

SCIENCE IS IN A FIX PROCESS TAHAT CAN BE REPEATED BY ANYONE AND STILL ARRIVE IN THE SAME

RESULT WHILE PHILOSOPHY, METHOD IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN SIMPLY DETACH FROM THE

PERSON PHILOSOPHIZING. A FRENCH PHILOSOPHER SAID THAT ONLY THE MIND, NOT THE BODY CAN

ARRIVE AT CLEAR AND DISTINCT IDEAS WHICH CANNOT BE DOUBTED ACCORDING TO RENE DESCARTES.

WE’RE ABLE TO TACKLE ABOUT THE DEEPER MEANINGS OF WORDS AND STATEMENTS AND WHERE

ABLE TO INTERACT WITH THEIR IMPACTS LIKE THE YIN AND YANG WHICH PERMEATES CHINESE

CULTURE INCLUDING TRADITIONS WITH TWO POLARITIES OF ENTITY TO BE BELIEVED.

THE LESSSON ALSO INVOLVES TRUTH AND OPINION. WHICH TACKLED ABOUT THE ARGUMENTATIVE

OPINIONS THIS ARE THE ARGUMENTS, CLAIM, PREMISES, AND FALLACIES WHILE ABOUT THE LOGICAL

FALLICIES THIS ARE THE ARGUMENTUM AD HOMINEM, ARGUMENTUM AD BACULUM, ARGUMENTUM

AD MISEICORDIAM, ARGUMENTUM AD POPULUM. ABOUT THE DOMAINS OF TRUTH WHICH ARE THE

OBJECTIVE, SOCIAL, PERSONAL DOMAINS.

 THE HUMAN PERSON AS AN EMBODIED

SPIRIT

IN THE THIRD LESSON IN PHILOSOPHY I’VE LEARNED THAT THE HUMAN PERSON AS AN EMBODIED

SPIRIT ILLUSTRATE’S THAT A HUMAN BEING IS A BIOSOCIAL BEING AND REPRESENTS THE HIGHEST

LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OF ALL LIVING ORGANISM. THE IDEA OF THE HUMAN PERSON AS AN “EMBODIED

SPIRIT” DOES NOT NECESSARILY REFER TO THE INCARNATION OR MATERIALIZATION OF SPIRIT AS AN IMMATERIAL

ENTITY. THE EMBODIMENT OF THE SPIRIT IN THE CONTEXT OF CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY (AS IS WELL KNOWN, THE

CONCEPT OF THE EMBODIED SPIRIT IS SPECIFIC TO CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY) SPECIFICALLY REFERS TO THE INSEPARABLE

UNION OF BODY AND SOUL. THUS, WHEN WE SAY “EMBODIED SPIRIT” WE MEAN THAT THE BODY IS NOT SEPARATED

FROM THE SOUL, JUST AS THE SOUL IS NOT SEPARATED FROM THE BODY. THIS ALSO HELPED ME UNDERSTAND

THE BASIS ON DEFIYING THE HUMAN PERSON AS A MAN, A HUMAN, HUMAN BEING, AND A PERSON

WHICH HAS A DIGNITY OF HAVING A PERSONHOOD AND THE HUMAN NATURE INSTINCT OF A

PERSON.FROM THE TRAITS THAT DEFINES A PERSON THROUGH SELF AWARENESS, SELF

DETERMINATION, EXTERNALITY, DIGNITY, FREE WILL, AND CONSEQUENCE.

 THE HUMAN PERSON IN THE

ENVIRONMENT

IN THIS FOURTH LESSON IT HELPED ME UNDERSTAND THE EXTERNALITIES OF THE HUMAN PERSON IN

THE ENVIRONMENT IN REGARDING TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMAN AND THE ENVIRONMENT.

I ALSO HAD IDEALIZED ALREADY ABOUT THE 3 MAJOR VIEWS WHICH ARE THE ANTROPOCENTHRISM,

BIOCENTRISM, AND THE ECOCENTRISM. IN THE NUTSHELL ANTROPOCENTHISM IS ONLY BASING FROM

THE MEANS AND NEEDS OF HUMAN BEINGS AS THE DOMENANT SPIECIES LIVING ON EARTH, WHILE

BIOCENTRISM EMPHASIZES ALL ORGANISMS REGARDLESS ON THEIR MEANS AND NEEDS, AND LASTLY

ECOCENTRISM THIS IS A POINT OF VIEW THAT RECOGNIZES THE ECOSPHERE, RATHER THAN THE BIOSPHERE, AS

CENTRAL IN IMPORTANCE, AND ATTEMPTS TO REDRESS THE IMBALANCE CREATED BY ANTHROPOCENTRISM.

MOREOVER I’VE LEARNED ALREADY THAT SUSTAINABILITY RELIES ON THREE IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE.

THIS ARE ENVIRONMENTAL INTEGRITY, ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY, AND EQUITY. I ALSO LEARNED THAT

PRUDENCE IS THE ABILITY TO REGULATE ONE’S ACTION AND BEHAVIOR.FRUGALITY ALSO MEAN BEING

THRIFTY WITH THE USE OF ONE’S TREASURES.

 FREEDOM OF A HUMAN PERSON

THE FIFTH LESSON TAUGHT ME THAT FREEDOM IS NOT ONLY FOCUSING IN ONE ASPECT OF BEING FREE

OR HAVING THE FREE WILL TO ENJOY LIFE AS IT IS BUT IT’S MORE THAN TO THINK THAT FREEDOM IS

AN INTHRINSIC AND ESSENTIAL PROPERTY OF THE PERSON. ON THE ASPECT OF THE HUMAN PERSON IS

THE ABILITY TO DECIDE AND CREATE CHOICES ON ITS OWN WILL MAY IT BE GOOD NOR BAD.MOREOVER

IN THE EQUILIBRIUM THERE ARE THIS THREE KINDS OF FREEDOM. FIRST THE PHYSICAL FREEDOM

WHICH SUFFICE THE ABSENCE OF EXTERNAL COMPULSION OR VIOLENCE THAT WOULD COERCE A PERSON TO ACT

OR NOT ACT IN A CERTAIN WAY. SECOND IS THE PSCHOLOGICAL FREEDOM WHICH SUFFICE THE FREEDOM

FROM IDENTIFYING WITH ANYTHING, ALSO CALLED AS THE FREEDOM OF CHOICE. LASTLY IS THE MORAL

FREEDOM MORAL FREEDOM IS THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE A SET OF MORAL VALUES AND TO LIVE YOUR LIFE IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE VALUES. AN EXAMPLE OF MORAL FREEDOM IS A PERSON CHOOSING TO LIVE HIS OR HER

LIFE BOUND BY AN ADHERENCE TO VIRTUES SUCH AS HONESTY, LOYALTY, FORGIVENESS AND SELF-DISCIPLINE.

FURTHERMORE ON THE LESSONS THAT I’VE LEARNED, THERE IS THIS TWO ELEMENTS THAT DEFINES

FREEDOM. THIS ARE VOLUTARINESS WHICH SUFFICE THE ABILITY OF A PERSON TO ACT OUT OF HIS OR

HER OWN FREE WILL AND SELF DETERMINATION AND RESPONSIBILITY WHICH SUFFICE THE PERSON

BEING ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS OR HER ACTIONS AND CONSEQUENCES.

 INTERSUBJECTIVITY

THE SIXTH LESSON TAUGHT ME THE IMPORTANCE OF INTERSUBJECTIVITY IN PHILOSOPHY WHICH ALSO

HAS BEEN USED TO REFER TO THE COMMON-SENSE, SHARED MEANINGS CONSTRUCTED BY PEOPLE IN THEIR

INTERACTIONS WITH EACH OTHER AND USED AS AN EVERYDAY RESOURCE TO INTERPRET THE MEANING OF ELEMENTS

OF SOCIAL AND CULTURAL LIFE. IN THIS TOPIC I’VE ALSO LEARNED THAT SEEMING IS THE WAY OF A PERSON

PRESENTS HIMSELF OR HERSELF WHEN DEALING WITH OTHERS FOLLOWED BY DIALOGUE WHICH REFERS

TO THE DEEP AND GENUINE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PERSONS, EMPHATY WHICH IS AN ASPECT OF

INTERSUBJECTIVITY AND IS DRIVEN BY A PERSON’S AWARENESS OF EMOTIONS AND TOUGHTS OF OTHER

PEOPLE, AVAILABILITY WHICH REFERS TO THE WILLINGNESS OF A PERSON TO BE PRESENT FOR ANOTHER

AND TO RENDER ASSISTANCE TO ANOTHER, ALIENATION THIS REFERS TO A STATE WHEN A PERSON

CEASE TO VIEW THE OTHER AS A DISTINCT AND AUTHENTIC PERSON, AND ETHICS OF CARE WHICH IS AN

ETHICAL THEORY THAT EMPHASIZES THE MORAL DIMENSION OF RELATIONSHIPS AND INTERACTIONS.
 THE HUMAN PERSON IN

THE SOCIETY

IN THE SEVENTH LESSON WHICH IS MOST LIKELY THE LAST ONE, IT TAUGHT ME THE VALUE OF THE

EXTERNALITIES OF THE HUMAN PERSON IN THE SOCIETY AND SOCIETY IS AN ORGANIZED GROUP OF

PEOPLE WHOSE MEMBERS INTERACT FREQUENTLY AND HAVE A COMMON TERRITORY AND CULTURE

WHICH IS ALSO REFERS TO A COMPANIONSHIP OR FRIENDLY ASSOCIATION WITH OTHERS, AN

ALLIANCE, A COMMUNITY, OR A UNION FOLLOWED BY SOCIAL CONTRACT, CONSENT OF THE

GOVERNED, GENERAL WILL, AND LASTLY THE COMMON GOOD WHICH ARE ALL THE ASSETS THAT

DEFIES THE HUMAN PERSON IN THE SOCIETY.

ALSO I’VE LEARNED THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT FORMS OF SOCIETIES WHICH ARE TYPICALLY CALLED

THE HUNTING AND GATHERING SOCIETY THAT IS RECOGNIZED AS THE EARLIEST AND SIMPLIEST FORM

OF SOCIETY AND THEY ARE NOMADIC, THE PASTORAL SOCIETY IS CHARACTIRIZED BY DOMESTICATION

OF ANIMALS FOR FOOD AND THEY REMAIN LONGER IN ONE PLACE, THE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY THEY

ARE SEMI-NOMADIC, AGRARIAN OR AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY THIS IS A TYPE OF SOCIETY THAT FURTHER

EVOLVE OF THE PASTORAL AND HORTICULTURAL SOCIETIES AND ALSO THEY ARE CHARACTIRIZED BY

IMPROVED TECHNOLOGY AND THE USE OF TOOLS TO AID IN FARMING, FEUDAL SOCIETY IS BASED ON

THE OWNERSHIP LAND DURING MEDIEVAL TIMES, INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY IS BASED ON THE USE OF

SPECIALIZED MACHINERY IN THE PRODUCTION OF GOODS AND SERVICES, POST-INDUSTIAL SOCIETY IS

MARKED BY ESTABLISHMENT OF SOCIETIES BASED ON KNOWLEDGE, INFORMATION, AND THE SCALE

OF SERVICES, AND LASTLY THE VIRTUAL SOCIETY THIS IS THE TYPE OF SOCIETY WHERE PEOPLE
ORGANIZE THEMSELVES THROUGH COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. IN ADDITION TO WHAT I’VE

LEARNED THERE ARE NORMS, FOLKWAYS, SOCIAL SYSTEM, SOCIAL ROLE, SOCIAL CLASSES, SOCIAL

INSTITUTION, SOCIAL VALEUS, AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS WHICH DIFIES THE HABITS OF HUMANS TO

THEIR SOCIETY IN ACCORDANCE TO HOW THEY ARE INTERACTING TO THEIR SPICEFIED SOCIETY.
 BUSSINESS PLAN

I. Introduction
A. Business concept and the business model

We as a team of three personnel we will be putting up an interactive food restaurant

accordance to how we desired it to be. Like any other business, there are also a lot of things
to consider in putting up ours. First, the name of the restaurant ‘’TRIPLE DREAM COVE”,

ACCORDING TO (POSIST.COM/restaurant-design-guest-experience), Many factors play a
role in ensuring a great customer experience. While we always focus on the food and the
service, we often overlook the restaurant layout, which in reality plays a crucial part in the
overall experience of the customer. Restaurant interior design has also been known to
influence the ordering behavior of customers. The restaurant layout also plays a critical role
in the restaurant operations and the workflow. You must always include certain design
guidelines in a restaurant layout and floor plan design. In this article, we will discuss why a
well-planned restaurant layout is important and how it improves the efficiency of
restaurant operations.

The ‘’TRIPLE DREAM COVE’’ is a tourist attraction restaurant which relates the inner nature
of humans that will clearly bring them to an explorative cove with lots of activities which
gives them a whole lot of fantastic experience while dining-in for a meal. The businesses
main point trough this is to give people the satisfaction they need to produce more

II. executive summary

A restaurant is a social industrial place where people can enjoy eating and can have fun socializing with
acquaintances it is also the cornerstone of providing well accumulated food for people on-the-go or
people who wants to dine-in. landscapes and designs are one beautifications of any restaurant to
become more exotic and catchy for costumers to be intrigued. The ‘’TRIPLE DREAM COVE’’ will be a
moderately priced 86 seat restaurant offering family style food and service. Philippine cuisine are all on
the menu. We will offer specialty selections including a lighter options and smaller portions for a
children’s menu. The restaurant will be a “teamwork” owned and operated by CHARLES JADE, DIANNE,
and KISSIE. Together they have a collective year experience in the restaurant and catering industry. The
restaurant will be located at the heart of the city where people are more likely to come and go. The
“TRIPLE DREAM COVE” was designated for everyone, regardless of age, sex, and economic status .The
décor will feature aquatic dark luminescent display, accented chairs with blue and white checked table
cloths. Dinner style tables will be surrounded by decorated chairs with comfortable seating cushions.

Sales projections assume 1700 customers per week resulting in weekly sales of just over peso, or
$1,028,000 annually. This equates to around $302 per square foot in sales annually which positions THR
as a highly desirable concept for ownership in a table service market where $200 to $325 per square
foot is considered moderately profitable and therefore a good investment. Total start up costs will be
$363,000, $174,000 of which will be contributed by the owners and the remainder will be secured by a
proposed bank loan.
