Everyone is a Philosopher

What is it that everyone is open to?  Existence?  Undeniably.  Religion?  Hardly.  But perhaps in some form, with or without label or consciousness.  Ethics?  To some extent this must be as such, for it would be of great power of emotion and psyche to override the natural impulse to protect and value some part of the self and deem it sacred.  The self would then use the materials of empathy to connect to the rest of the world on the other side, forming a bridge of ethics.  The nature of this bridge is contingent upon the character of the individual.  Aesthetics?  Ah, now we move closer.  It would seem that at some point everyone would be able to embrace this level of existence, though some are raised or chanced into the world in a lot which guards against such a lifestyle.  And so it must be passion.  Yes passion.  This is what drives our movements.  Forget reason.  What a sham.  Reason is but passion dolled up in a cap of logic, a cape of sound judgment, a belt of mindfulness, and boots of broadmindedness.

So many lost souls in this place.  Placed in a place where no one can find a place.  If one wants to find a place in this place where he and she have been flung, then one must look at the place around them.  Meticulously of course.  Then realize that you can never get away from your personal place.  Your personal life place.  This you must carry with you to every place you go.  This, however, will be the vehicle by which you explore every place.  Use your personal life place to guide you in how you want to explore in the rest of the place.  This will surely lead you to the right place.

Everyone is a philosopher.  Especially the ones that deny it.
