Until quite recently I was under the impression that although philosophy seemed to be connected to everything it only was attainable through a focused approach as in a philosophy course. However, after enrolling in an English course I am delighted to discover that it is essentially philosophy under the clever guise of literature. In addition sociology appears to be closely connected to philosophy as well although focused more specifically on the nature of society and how various parts of it relate to each other.
The only unfortunate part of this discovery is that the low level of concentration of this philosophy. Both English and sociology present a watered down version of philosophical ideas however, a deeper knowledge of philosophy will undoubtedly give one an advantage of some sort when analyzing and presenting the ideas that do occur in these two disciplines.
Thankfully, there will be a way to pursue my love of philosophy without focusing all of my energy towards it, as would be necessary for a minor.
Side note: (I love reading. Reading = more knowledge and more knowledge = better results for my money.)
