Philosophy in Life

             Over the past five months of learning "philosophy," by its definition, is extremely
             vague and confusing. It can be related to anything to do with thought, perception, and
             even basic human existence. However, over the homework, projects and assignments I
             have done through these months, I learned that philosophy is just simply the study of

             exists in a communion has unconditional love for one another, like the kind of love Jesus
             offered to us. Another question that metaphysics focus on is, "Does God exist?" This
