philosophers and their philosophies.

so..after a week and a half of thinking - so are all the experiments that TODAY'S PEOPLE ARE performing - all the questions that are raised by the people today are wrong? because what i understood from what adam was saying to me..that the question was stupid because!!! the thinkings and strategies that might involve = today's brain results - not back then. i totally understood this reason. so does it mean every thought about anything that happened 100 years ago = waste? does it mean we shouldn't think about the past and start thinking about the future? because to me, past is past and we can't change them anyway? but how can we think about the future without a past? i mean- future it self is just too vague. now, = 1 sec ago's future. doesn't it mean that we're actually living in the future of ourselves 1 second ago? again - this leads back to what defines time. i still don't understand it. what is time!?

ALL THESE WONDERINGS. ALL THESE THINKINGS. SICKENS ME. of course i love questions. and simply because questions will lead into more questions with fruits of the unexpecteds - which is very exciting at times because you'll never know what you'll end up to - but it's not that exciting if we kind of drift off to the same spot and just running around in circles. and then it makes me think about the importance of answer (and this links to the importance of true answer). why can't we have answers? how do we have answers? okay- by thinking and reading stuff about it. but doesn't it mean that i as an individual will get different answers from you - who basically is very different from me - thinking differently which most probably believe in very different things from me. then which one is right / wrong? i know if we were fed by answers each and every single day, life wouldn't be as educational as it should be, right? because answers are given and somehow it stops us from thinking and pushing thoughts to its' boundaries. but how can i get answers? all i did was just wondering about random stuff and found no answer.

i believe that almost everything that are related to personal values (which is almost applicable to anything that are happening to us across the board) are very deeply argueable. so what's the truth? i always think that philosophers are a line of people that we can look up to and somehow we seek when we need something to believe in. but philosophers were once normal humans too. they're just like anyone of us. but they think more - and..maybe smarter than us - or simply just thinking about the unthinkable - which somehow defines something outside the box. but what they've written = human thoughts too. and this means that what they've written actually what they think is the truth - and that's what they believe in - while i don't understand what exactly truth is yet. and yet some people truly believe in them. i mean, who are we to believe what they've written which are most probably their opinions - and who are they to be believed in? don't you think we all - to a certain extent - can be called as mini-philosophers? to be one, i guess it's pretty simple really - just think of something that others might not think about - make them say 'ah-- that makes sense' , convince them that you're so right and hypnotise them if you need to and there you go. philosopher. ah- for a split second i thought that i've gone too far. okay- lets get back to dictionary.com and seek for a definition. (by the way, who made definitions anyway? robots? humans? i mean - geez - who defines apple starts with an a - and not e? why do i always believe in dictionary.com anyway????!!!)

okay- so definition that they've got is not as complicated as i have anticipated. funny thing actually- i think...philosophy means us - humans. individually. don't you agree?

philosophy = nature of knowledge, reality and existence = i = me.

ARE we the philosophies?
