Only a Philosopher would understand

I chose individuality over populace thinking,
Household over societal reasoning.
I chose factual over dogmatic subscriptions,
Logic over fallacies of life.
I choose doubting over assuming,
Reality over appearance.
I choose to think and reason,
To engage my mind before acting.

I choose intellectual humility over dictatorial tendencies,
Fair mindedness over indoctrination.
I choose factual truth over evidential 'truth',
Right over wrong.
I choose to be transparent in my judgements.
Am of Rene Descartes school of thought,
Cogical ergo sum- I doubt therefore I exist.
