First principles working as philosophy

"I have knowledge of my forthcoming thoughts, and/or words. My awareness notwithstanding, my consciousness is where my thoughts and/or words take form. Emotion is its root, but consciousness is its essence. Howbeit, it is undefined philosophically, therefore it still belongs to me. Hence, who can impose a definition on it for me?"



My rebuttal:

Sounds to me like rudimentary supposition. Nothing wrong to report. We all carry an element of this type awarenss. Especially when you get to a sophisticated point of philosophical inquiry. Scholars in general, for example, rely on their expertise using empirical evidence to justify their claims. In my work doing philosophy is based on an intuitive level. My measure of langauge is mastered using language in this intuitve element as philosophical.


Edit: I am well aware scholars would reject this stated view of philosophy. But Socrates wouldn't. If that makes sense.


Edit 2: and what I mean by rudimentary is that you allow your thoughts to guide or modify what already may be known philosophy. Only you have an awarenss that follows principles to affirm your own views as impartial. Therefore, relevant as you reveal these thoughts in logical - linear manner.


I know my shit.
