What goes around, comes around!

My philosophy

is that people my age, with rare exceptions, shouldn't even be allowed to use the word "philosophy". Just because you can depict one's words a hundred times and make up some "deep meaning" of it, doesn't mean anything. Does not make you smarter, does not make you look more respectable, does not make you seem wiser. We all want to be philosophers. We all want to "heal" people and be praised. Appreciated - at the very least.
We're all so dependent on independence, yet we all need approval. People coming to you for advice; getting called wise; it's just another part of the whole game,
What are YOU in this for, philosopher?
