New Year

I am working an all nighter.  Fun for me.  So I am contemplating and pondering.  When was the last time you actually started a thought or ponder from beginning to end/  It is something I do now.  My new pondering is this.  What is real?  I know very general, but very deep.  So here are some of my thoughts.  Real can me relative.  Maybe that is my thinking within a metaphysical framework of my of my life and my experience.  A part of the definition of metaphysics is understanding our existence, space and possibilities.  This is also a little science involved.  So for a few days, think about what is real, on a scientific level and give me thoughts.  
Another pondering is, what should each of us do to be good and wise?  This again seems to fall into the, what is relative to you as a person.  What life experiences have taught you.  Ethics is a theory of moral standards.  We each have them.  What do we base this on.  Did you learn some from your upbringing and then build upon that?  The world is so vast and their is so much to learn.  Our morals define what we have become and how we look at the world.  Some of what the world has to offer is amazing and wonderful and then the down side is there is so much terrible out their.
It makes me very grateful for the gospel and family.  Love to all
