teach philosophy

I have recently discovered that Academia is a rather unpleasant place for me. I don’t like the people there, for the most part. I don’t really like academic types, as I’m much too free-thinking and freespirited for that way of being. I also found that I rather hate the other students. They are mostly dull, and even often they are DUMB! Why would I want to be bogged down with them for the rest of my life? No. I’d rather find some other way to make my money!! Also, I specifically DON’T care what the “intellectual community” thinks of me or my work, and I won’t write for their approval, not even as a means to an end!!

Nevertheless, there may be other ways to “teach philosophy” that I may enjoy. I may take pupils of my own, perhaps apprentices of sorts. Perhaps I’ll mentor a protege? Who knows how it goes?

It is worth noting that I didn’t put down “become a professor of philosophy”. That is also unlikely ever to be the goal.

What could be more joyous for me than to teach sweet philsophy? To show a field for the open mind, frolicking questions which answers find. Meditations upon experience sublime, with reference to matter, soul, purpose, and time.
