Speaking of Pandora's Box
IP:
Wouldn’t the answer to every question you've ever had be just as futile? Think about it. Once you've attained the most highly prized thing in your field of lifestyle, be it the best record label, fastest track... best crew roster, whatever it may be. The continued effort to strive ceases to egg you on. You lose interest. It just happens.
Now. The big question I have for you, or rather something to dwell and reply upon. Is this. Philosophy isn’t just another subject in school you take. For some it is... but for those few whose niche in life just happens to be the road, it's everything and nothing. You realize some things pretty quickly about the subject matter. One, it's a poor choice in major if you're looking for money in life. Two it doesn’t really do anything for you except stir questions and imbue answers you thought you already knew. Redirect you train of thought on a daily basis and convince yourself you've figured something out, when in fact you can't. All the while knowing the latter is true. Socrates, a well known Philosopher, committed suicide. I often pondered why a man so smart would do that, and then I thought of some explanation to it all. For a brief moment, that man achieved what he set out to do. He understood the questions he yearned to answer. What is an afterlife? Why do we exist. HOW do we exist. And the biggest question of all. Is there some sort of God. Before you go on a rampage of retarded bullshit 9 paragraphs long, keep this in mind. What do you do when you finally realize the thing you spent your entire adult life doing had no point? What do you do when you are the best in what you do? Sooner or later you quit and pass the gauntlet down to let another man with pipe dreams to be what you've become, become it. Was Socrates crazy? Some say so. But couldn’t he have just achieved what he set out to do. Understand the questions he'd been born with. What is natural for the human mind to inquire on. What we're born with. Wouldn’t Philosophy just as accurately be translated as a way of thinking as it would be to say its just the journey to understand the futile attempt of what we're doing in the first place? If you don't follow me, don't reply. Peace. to lazy to use spell check.
