yes!. when you come across a problem and no one is able to help you, philosophy can actually save your life!. one phrase can mean so many things, it can give us an idea when we need one!. sometimes we just need some one not connected to us to give us the best solution because they can see better!. to solve a problem you are in, you have to step out from the box, then you can really see the box and you can find for the real problem and think of a solution!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Constantly!.

Actually the fact that you asked this means to me that you have never known philosophy!.

If it is useless to you then why bother!?

Thinking useless thoughts is just idle inner monologue!. (and a habit you should immediately break)

Philosophy is answering a question and forming an understanding of things you are naturally curious about or have been introduced to!.

Eventually you ask enough questions that you go crazy, then you realize that not having all the answers is the point of it all and then its fun!

Its just connecting dots!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
