Philosophy

It takes about sixteen years to formulate any great philosophical idea because it must be tested against the hormonal barrage multiplied by a function of time greater than a decade. And if at the end of sixteen years all you have are mere “philosophical remarks” then publish them and let the world pick up where you left off.

When the world has no problems and has learned to appreciate the familiar then we will no longer need philosophers.

But who does philosophy anymore and what does that look like?

Who is interested in the primitive concepts that are contemplated through philosophy? We all despise the decoration given by academics to what we can feel without their help.

We must not forget the connection between the words and the rules is only realized in the everyday practice of living.

We have only ever known pain by our own pain.

The love of knowledge that underlies philosophy is only realized in the way you live your life.

Academic philosophy has generally attempted to answer all questions with the purpose of eliminating them as being questions to us any longer.

Philosophers should have been more clear that they enjoyed themselves in the process of attempting to answer the question and it was that joyful practice that they wanted us to integrate into our lives.

Is the philosophy of our inner private lives found in literature and stories and myths?
