Over the past couple of weeks I have been traveling down the wonderful road of Worldview. I will be straightforward, I had no idea what the term Worldview meant when the class started, therefore I didn’t know what to expect. However, the hilarious thing about Worldview is that there is not an exact definition of Worldview in my estimation.
