Philosophy

Recently finished a book about "Introduction of Philosophy", and that gives me a new direction of how to look upon my life.

Have you ever tried to think about why you live here, or even ask who you are?

One night that having dinner with my friend Chiu we got a chat about this,

[Chiu]: Why you choose reading such book? You get lost in your life?
[Me]: Nope, I am not getting lost, I am quite clear what I am doing.
[Chiu]: So ?
[Me]: So even not lost, it is more urgent to understand about our lives, we should treat these questions seriously.

Indeed, if we do not think deeply of our lives, we are easily get lost, just like me that have a lost-period after graduation. The meaning of life is essential to all of us. And to have more idea on such topic, you must read some philosophy books. Some of them are rather abstract, I suggest you to find some introductory ones to read ~

I really like this phrase: from Descartes, Rene
"Cogito ergo sum" (I think, therefore I am)
