Learning from philosophers their wisdom? Well, I do not know if philosophers would agree with that. The way I see it so far is that philosophers throughout history have been questioning things. Even, their own ideas. They question it after time. It is good to learn from them and it is important that individuals take their own way in life.
I can see you learnt something here and I can also see the path you took for your own life.
I hear what you are saying. We all know what is best for us - hopefully. 😊
