The philosopher and human being

As you live, you have no choice but to face the problems and needs of daily life. There are no limits to people’s sorrows, pains, and joys. People are all people, the poor and the rich, the old, the young, the child, the great and the small.

Indeed, philosophy arose from thinking about the problems of people’s daily lives, from the never-ending historical determinations of human existence.

The philosopher is the only one concerned with all these determinations of being, without anyone charging him with that. And because he is always preoccupied with this being and its determinations based on his personal mind, exposing, revealing, and understanding, the general mind, asleep in the bed of illusory certainties, quickly builds a hostile and aggressive relationship with philosophy and the philosopher, with those he thinks about, with their reality and their destiny.
