Why do you do what you do, why do you think what you think, why do you feel what you feel. 

Mythos-- or what we'd now roughly call science and story telling 

So philosophia- the love of wisdom 

philosophy- the academic study of anything 

plato's academy- Platos-

What is the nature off reality 

is there anything else in the world besides matter and energy

metaphysics- the branch of philosophy that studies the nature of reality 

Esistemkology- The branch of philosophy that studies the nature and the scope of knowledge
