On different occasions i have been called a philosopher by a few friends... once it was on a small write up of mine and among other incidents one was when i was making a genuine point to a friend...
On one occasion a friend replied "ya ya watever.. You and your philosophy"
On another incident another friend was definitely impressed...
But how much do people really understand another person's point of view.. Or should it be 'How much do people really try to understand another person's point of view?'
Do people our age find philosophy boring?? do they take interest in philosophy?? do they ever think deep into a point??
According to me philosophy is nothing but analysis of a point of view... every person's point of view is his/her philosophy... so when everyone has a philosophy why don't they try and understand another person's point of view...

Are kids today tooo busy with they're own lives??
or
Are they too shelfish that they don't care to know how other people think??
or
Is it that they just are too short sighted to understand anybody elses' but their own point of view??
or
Is it that they are just tooo lazy to do some deep thinking of their own???

After reading all this u will certainly ask "point of view on what??"
point of view could be on any topic under the sun... could be on really conspicuous topics or on really simple topics.. as every one has a different ways of looking at things.. everyone's approach is totally different.. and therefore their philosophy is different.
The main question striking my mind right now....
Is being called a philosopher good for a person of my age?? is it good for my image?? (i know i don't have much of an image or rep.. but still) let me rephrase that 'is it good for anybody in our age group's image??'
Why is it that when a young person is callled a philosopher he/she is considered to be very serious and boring?? is it not possible for a person to have fun, enjoy life and be a deep thinker all at the same time??
If it is possible then why is it that philosophers in our age group are not appreciated???
i understand that the youth are not serious or do not think of philosophy or anything of the kind.. they are more spontaneous and in the moment kinda people but does it hurt to listen to and consider a valid point??
there has been so much damage done in the past & present & will be done in the future in individual as well as collective lives due ppl not considering other peoples' point of view and ideas.. not placing themselves in the other peoples' shoes and not analysing ideas from 360 degs
are poeple too much of a surface thinker and too gullible that instead of thinking and deducing cocnlusions on their own they rely and believe whatever anybody tells them. If this is the case i can confidently say that the world is already doomed no effort can be done to save it..
For example lets take up the issue of the currently ongoing Aamir Khan Case. According to him he made statments and supported the rehabilitation of the victims of the Dam Project.. but his statements have been misunderstood and misrepresented by the BJP in Gujarat due to which this whole controversy has come up.. now so many times aamir khan's interviews have come on television.. so many times he has spoken about he meant and what he said.. he has explained his point of view in detail but yet poeple are not listening to what he says.. they refuse to understand "his point of view" and the poeple of the state blindly believe the instigators.
This is exactly what i'm talking about.. this is exactly what will doom this nation.. ignorance and the unwillingness of people to dig for the truth.
On this note i bid u adieu (for now i'll be back to bug u) and i hope that people think deep into this point of mine and recognise the folly of their ways.
