My Philosophical Goal
What Is a Master's Thesis For?
The discussion of my thesis for a Master's degree in philosophy didn't go as I expected it to be, nonetheless it was a constructive moment.
The twelve months I spent thinking, researching and writing was the most difficult period of my study life, since kindergarten.
The beautiful news is that this summer my high school philosophy teacher categorized a physical copy of that thesis in the school library.
Until this moment, this writing was causing me sorrow because I thought I would forever be judged by its content. Now I realized that the ultimate objective is totally different: inspire, inspire people to study and to think for themselves.
In the end, our personal journey lead to unexpected crossroads and we need to make choices - what I am doing to do in this situation?
P.S.
Reminder to myself: these events are just spots, individual pieces of a bigger path of the human thinking. Historical a priori.1 Be humble and learn through the way.
