Honest Confessions
Today I fear, that the worst is ahead of me. Even if I may have a great mind with great judgment, I am missing something. If philosophy is that I am majoring promotes the mind, then I believe I am missing the body. There is logic and illogic in philosopher. First of all, philosophy has some sort of beautiness but the beauty cannot be seen by many other people, especially for those who never heard of philosophy or religion. People who say that philosophy is good is either lying, and encourage the person, or honest truth but do not know how to explain it but clearly simplify as the love of wisdom. Now, those who criticizes philosophy or religion, are due to the circumstance of satisfying one finicial needs. This is true. For philosophy majors has no money, but some sort of love. And those who major in a skill or train in a specific job will make money, but lack a certain beauty or judgment. But that is okay, if you take philosophy as a minor or do some private reading. But for those who major in philosophy without a minor or double major, or low grade point average, the high intellect scholars, which is me. I felt a sense of dissatisfaction and regret.
This is the year I am in serious contemplation. I once heard a remark , “Let the philosophers do what they want and contemplate”, a harsh comment.
Some comments I heard to me was , “Your majoring in philosophy, that’s interesting” , “Your majoring in philosophy , I think that’s good”, “Your majoring in philosophy, you as well remain work in the restaurant”, “Can you find a job with a philosophy”, “Your so funny because your so honest”, “Your so mysterious”, “Your so amusing, some topics you post does not reply to the thread, which I find it funny and laughable time to time, but I find it interesting”, “What kind of post is this, you should be banned from this forum”, “That’s not logical”, “You know the name, ignore him if possible”.
Some replies that I often support and defend philosophy , “Philosophy teaches you to be courageous, fearless, if I want something nothing can stop me”, “Somebody said you can work in medical research, or go work for Microsoft”, “With a philosophy degree, I can think deep thoughts about being unemployed”, “you can do anything with a philosophy degree”, “Buissness companies hire philosophers because they are quick learners and think better than average buissness majors”.
Now I am the point where I have to prove my point, but do not know how, I stand alone in the top of the mountain, in order to get off this mountain I must ascend to heaven, if not my efforts of reaching this top will be in vain.
