For the way the world works, I like the Emergentist view, a well know proponent of which might be Stuart Kauffman (though there are others), it's a philosophy that reconciles the classical and romantic view-points, allowing for wonder, beauty, logic and science to happily coexist.
For my actions within that world, I like the Taoist and Zen Buddhist views. That to act against the natural flow is wasted effort. Zen encourages clear thought, intuitive understanding and self-reliance. Both encourage that one tries to experience every moment as fully as possible, that one's ego is something that should be replaced with humility and that one's mind holds a full and instinctive understanding of the world from which it is created.
