I Admire Socrates
Socrates was a man who questioned life at a time questioning was simply not done.
How brave of him to do so.
He was outraged with materialism and shallowness and saw to break down ideas to the depths to find meaning or the negation of meaning.
How?
By asking questions.
Near the end of his life, around 2,500 years ago, according to what is written of him he was told to drink poison by the authorities of the time for “corrupting the youth” which he drank without a problem as if he was drinking a Sprite.
What a man and legend of what it is to think and question what we are taught.
What can we analyze from all we have experienced in our lives really?
In my case that life is about being found pleasing, productive, and harmless OR we are negatively labeled, sent to be fixed, or locked up.
