While I act incredibly fast if not immediately with some, I sometimes take 1-2 weeks with couple of hours worthy ones.

Welcome to the Philosophy bowl! The goal of this bowl is to discuss principles in philosophy that we can apply to our lives and fortify ourselves for life using our collective knowledge. It is also to help one another as we all struggle at different points in our lives. Personally, philosophy has served as my northern star that I use to navigate through life’s storms.
