Chocolate Socrates

Chocolate Socrates is the extension of a man that knows that one knows nothing. And while knowing that one knows nothing, Chocolate Socrates contemplates a life for others in which one also accepts that one knows nothing, and in knowing nothing, realizes that in life, the only way to live is to neither think you know how to live nor think anyone else knows how to live; and simply be.

(c)Chocolate Socrates: A Philosophical Blog, seeks to make philosophy the forefront of every conversation. If people create meaning in life, Chocolate Socrates demands that such meaning should be discussed before all other matters that weigh on the thoughts of any individual. Accordingly, Chocolate Socrates believes that meaning is what defines reality. As a result, Chocolate Socrates believes that every person in the world is a philosopher who has defined for themselves how to live within the context of their world. Furthermore within the context of the world, Chocolate Socrates believes that assigning meaning is what allows people to define the kind of person they are or choose to become within the context of their world. In doing so, Chocolate Socrates provides a platform that re-defines philosophy as a thing to love and revere by providing a way for people to meditate upon their own philosophies- in conversation, by discussing the meanings any other person possesses in life that allows them to live the life they choose to live. This is to say that we each live our lives differently, we each have: our own stories, own opinions, and own perspectives. There is no one way to see things, or to do things. Therefore Chocolate Socrates believes that the only certain way to live, is to possess the ignorance of knowing that there is a particular way to live to begin with, and be willing to challenge whether one is living well each day. Thus the good life to Chocolate Socrates, is a life in which one is convinced that one knows that one knows nothing of what is good- but remains good.

Chocolate Socrates believes that the examined life is to be revisited constantly, in conversation and dialogue. Discussing what is meaningful should challenge, who we think we are, who we really are, and who we want to be.
