Studying philosophy can lead to a happier and more peaceful existence.

Philosophy is one of the majors which is studied at university. The basic role of philosophy is to ask questions and to think about the nature of human and the universe. For many people, it is obscure and understanding it is never easy and it can be painful. However, some philosophers believe that studying philosophy can lead to a happier and more peaceful existence.

Philosophy is use of reasons to understanding things, such as the nature of reality and the principles that influence moral judgment. Studying philosophy includes taking a closer look/view and answering some of key/big questions about happiness and living a good life. The purpose of life is not just living, but also it is to live well.

In other words, philosophy can be used to convince people that they are wrong and you are right. It makes us a reasonable person and boost our self-esteem. For example, if you want a raise from your boss, you can know that there are good reasons, such as: increasing the sales of company, the quality of the products, etc. Then you can assert a good challenge with your boss. You would stand a better chance than if you argue with your boss by bad reasons, such as: I really need to have more money, mu family are very poor and we need more money, etc.

The study of philosophy helps to develop intellectual abilities that are important for life. If people have both a desire to be happy and the ability to be happy, this means that they should prefer to learn philosophy. So, take some philosophy courses and ask "why?".
