Philosophy has been percieved by many as archaic and abstract ramblings by scholars in their ivory towers or unrealistic and unpragmatic declarations by the idealistic dreamer, this is not true. Rather, Philosophy is a way a life. it is what makes up the human person, her ideals, beliefs, faith, principles, it is her ideas, outlook on life, her doctrine, its law and ethics, it is values, attitutde, it is tradition and culture. It is LIFE.
While the above image that depicts the popular sculpture by Auguste Rodin "the thinker" that is generally synoymous with philosophers, this is quite milseading as philosophers it potrays philosophers as idle thinkers, rather philosophers have since the beginning of recorded history been key players and actors in shaping world history and human development and societal progress.
