To be surprised is to inquire.
The etymology of the word philosophy is to love and seek wisdom.
Philo (love) + Sophia (knowledge) = Philosophia
Essentially, philosophy is not something to be explained but to be practiced.
We quickly get used to ordinary things and cease being surprised. Then how do we open our minds to the unknown?
Ask. Simply ask.
Ask yourself.
Practicing it will change the way you see the world.
