Philosophy is an art of how well one can know and perceive things in according to one’s intellectuality. No one is born-philosopher but such intellectual power comes with persistently conceiving and perceiving the surroundings as an eminent and a great thinker. We all love philosophy but we do not want to love philosophy and that is why we cannot even use our minds at the fullest. We are immersed in physically attracted things to a fault that we do not find time to think of ourselves. We do not bring change in our lives because we do not perceive ourselves that much.
Our minds are taking control over our bodies and we are helpless to do something, to take good decisions and to do whatever we want to do, it is all because we do not have that philosophical eye to perceive things in a way, we want not our mind. Whoever giving time to oneself is a philosopher and it is upon one how good philosopher is he, by giving time to oneself and think deeply how change one is from past.
The real essence and gist of philosophy lies within oneself. Every individual is a philosopher of its own, how good one is descrying oneself is all that matters the most. Let your soul be at the glory of philosophy, and the only way to do it is to think, conceive and perceive yourself. The great thinkers are the great philosophers because the truth is they not only see the things but they contemplate. Let yourself be in the sea of philosophy where you can swim like a free fish without any barriers.
