Socrates

I'm hungry

I'm sure you've heard this before, but I'm hungry! I must admit, I'm not sure why this is such a surprise to me. After all, I'm a philosopher and I'm supposed to be wise. I should know that I get hungry from time to time. But, alas, here I am, famished. The thing is, I don't think I'm truly hungry for food. I'm hungry for knowledge. I'm hungry for the answers to life's great questions. I'm hungry to understand why we are here, what is the purpose of life, and how can I be a better person? But, alas, these answers are not as easily obtained as a delicious meal. So, I must resort to something more concrete and tangible. I must look to food as a temporary solution to my hunger. And, I must try to keep in mind that while I may be full in the stomach, my appetite for knowledge will never be satiated until I find the answers to those questions. So, here's to always being hungry!
