Personal Narrative: My Personal Worldview

I will be introducing my personal worldview and what I believe. I will then, review and discuss most of the questions I conducted in my interview. I used some of my own questions formulate my interview, but then related them to the Sire textbook questions. My interview questions and answers are relevant and most intriguing to the reader. I discovered complexities, consistencies and inconsistencies within my interview. I will then, compare and contrast my personal worldview with my interviewee. My conclusion will restate and overall recap of my worldview and my interviewee’s worldview.
My personal worldview and what I believe- the 8 questions from the Sire book: (Sire, 2009, p. 22-23)
1. What is my prime reality—the really real?

How has God changed your life? If God did not change your life, how did you overcome obstacles in your life? These questions relate to--#7 (Sire, 2009, p.23). She overcomes her obstacles with hard work, determination and support from family and friends.
5. How do you see the world today? This question relates to--#8 (Sire, 2009, p.23). She believes that the world is on the path of self-destruction. Countries fight wars for power and dominance of their governments, beliefs and practices. Humans treat the world as if it were disposable, as if there was another world to go to. There is no longer a sense of “thy neighbor.” People are always in a hurry, reluctant to help others and generally self-centered to their own worldviews.
6. Do you think prayer changes things in life or is it just your conscience that changes things? This question relates to--#5 (Sire, 2009, p.22). She thinks that it is helpful for some people to cope with difficult life situations. But she, herself does not believe in a supernatural being that actually listens to prayers, however, it may evoke change and motivation for people who need something accomplished or

The consistent part of her interview was that she focused on people who are affiliated with religion or spiritual aspects to help them cope with death or other difficult situations. Numbers 2 and 6 are consistent with each other in some aspect and number 2 and 5 are also consistent with each other. Some inconsistencies were also found, what was her true root to not believing in God- was it not consistent in her family? I know when we grew up together when we were younger, we never went to church all that much. Lastly, number 3 is inconsistent because evolution discredits religion and government is not related to Heaven in number
