"If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself."
- Albert Einstein
Philosophy is a practice which has a stigma of being too academic, aloof and riddled with pointless latin and greek terms.
And I believe it is.
This blog is all about taking the heavy-load subject that is Philosophy and making it a bit easier, enjoyable and just try and turn it into something that anyone and everyone can take part in.
Socrates, one of the earliest recognized philosophers ever was just a regular everyday dude who walked around town wanting to have chats with people about philosophy. Today, philosophers are all old men with PhDs and too much time on their hands. Everybody is a philosopher! Everybody thinks about stuff at some point, right?
If you too are a philosophy student, this blog should be a help. If you're just interested in philosophy, take a look and see what you think!
If you want me to cover a topic on something other than a philosopher in particular but still philosophical (like one of Plato's dialogues, existentialism or even the Matrix), send me a message and I'll add it to the to-do list.
