My second class of Creative and Critical Thinking which by mean i'm already on the second week.
In this week class, our lecturer, Dr. Nasir taught us about Philosophy of Thinking.
What is Philosophy?
The original meaning of the word philosophycomes from the Greek roots philo-meaning "love" and -sophos, or "wisdom". Thus, it can be concluded "Philosophy" means to know the meaning of life.
What is Thinking?
Thinking is ..“use the brain to plan something, solve a problem, make a decision, etc”So, why are we thinking? because of the inquiries and curiosity in order to seek truth is the nature of human.

Then we were asked to seat in our group and the task is given.
Our group task is to find out and explain to the class later on what is Western Philosophy.
Western Philosopy is an idealism to preserve faith in God in the same time defending the right to think freely. This idealism is by Plato on early 18th century.
