This is the one chapter of the book I found myself instantly drawn to. Socrates theory and philosophy interest me greatly.
The most amazing thing I thought of this chapter was the story of the people in the cave. After reading that story my mind went on a journey and explored so many different aspects of our everyday life and helped me determine how important they were. It made complete sense to me as to why the other cave dwellers were so unhappy with the one who escaped. If someone told me everything I ever knew and believed was a complete lie I would have a similar reaction.
It really goes to show that even the little things in life, that we often take for granted, are worth appreciating.
I will definitly use his teachings and prinicples in my everyday life, whether it be related to the story of a different aspect of Socrates philosophy. Each aspect opens new doors which can lead to endless possibilities of thinking in which I am willing to explore.
