It is integral to our human nature, as individuals, to begin ASKING QUESTIONS from an early age. In this early stage in life we begin learning and exploring the world around us, trying to become familiar with our external environment. But... what about our INNER SELF?
How many times in your life time has a person asked you, WHO ARE YOU? How can you reply to such a simple yet, personal, question? Will you reveal something private about yourself, or will you say something that has already been made public? Will you respond openly? Will you hide behind a mask? This is a personal choice. Everybody has the right for privacy, especially in a society where the majority of people are strangers, and walk different paths of life.
As an individual, or even as a member of a group of people, do you ever think about what the INNER SELF is? Suppose that you are a member of a group of people. What do you all have in common? Why do you call yourselves a group? There must be at least a common interest among you!!!
Every individual is unique, yet it is also integral to our human nature to belong. This is a fundamental reality to who we are as human beings! And, at one point down the road, individuals will begin understanding...
So, I ask you a question... YOU CHESS FREAKS. What is Philosophy...

Yes... Socrates, from the 'city of speech', has come as far as New York city.
I am 46 chromosomes and a lot of symbiotic partners (like bacteria etc) who deserve also a lot of credit for making me possible. ;-)
'Jurgen', what you look like I can not tell! But I can tell that it is your will and your free conscience that made you contribute to this discussion.
Cheers!
