philosophy should involve a love of knowledge and searching for deeper meanings and developing a system of ideas that explain profound questions in practice philosophy for many people is simply a word game in which not only is there very little achieved but so much time is spent simply debating the meaning of words and trying to define what a particular group means when it uses certain words the modern philosophy from existentialism onward seems to have provided very little benefit i would like to see philosophy applied by individuals to expand their minds and to be able to think deeply

What is time?
My philosophy: Reject Rejection.
"Philosophy is a field of study that includes diverse subfields such as aesthetics, epistemology, ethics, logic, and metaphysics, in which people ask questions such as whether God exists, what is the nature of reality, whether knowledge is possible, and what makes actions right or wrong. The fundamental method of philosophy is the use of reasoning to evaluate arguments concerning these questions. However, the exact scope and methodology of philosophy is not rigid. What counts as philosophy is itself debated, and it varies across philosophical traditions."

I'm not a philosopher but every time I hear about it, I think of humanity. After all, we are here, traveling the same path despite diversity. Gotta carry each other some how and philosophy is only a way to figure out how. Ok, that is that. :)

Philosophy is greek for love of knowledge, and it is just that to me. I think of Philosophy as Plato and Aristotle thinking about the meaning of life.
