What if philosophy is not, as many have supposed, a search for truth, but the avoiding of the void (or avoiding [a] depression), the continual flight from skepticism, the acknowledgment that we are--by our very human nature--isolated: strangers to ourselves, others and the world all at once?
It took me forever to come to this understanding...
...(and I mean "this" as in, this one, one of many others. Just as in Super Mario Brothers, there is no singular world, there are many worlds--all of which our hero finds himself almost totally isolated from other, humanly contact; he/we have no knowledge of his past or present; with only the drive to avoid the voids and find Princess--who must constantly be re-found, an important note--we proceed through many worlds and many trials, tragedies, and doubts (the wrong castle, again?), and come to many different understandings by dedication, skill, and a bit of luck. ::blows whistle::).
