THOUGHTS ABOUT THINKING, OR SHOULD I SAY "THINKERS"!
I mentioned to my husband, Luis G. Lobo, that I have never taken a Philosophy class and I am thinking about doing a "Study of Philosophy".  I, of course, know who many of the "Great Thinkers" are; Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Galen, to name a few, and have some knowledge of their philosophies, as well. However, I was thinking I might like to build upon my somewhat limited knowledge of the "Great Thinkers" and broaden my mind and perspective from an adult frame of mind. I barely got the words out of my mouth, and my husband hops up, runs...not walks, to his Library (yes, he has one) and brings out this 2 1/2 inch thick/1011 page book and tells me,  "You must start here". Then he leads me by the hand to his Library and shows me 15-20 more books to guide me in my study.  Oh, and if I have any questions or would like to discuss, just let him know.  OK, I wasn't exactly thinking about pursuing a PhD, but thank you Honey.  No dinner or laundry for you for the next few years, I'll be too busy reading, and THINKING!!!
