ago 15dIt took me a while to understand what philosophy meant by "being." Each philosopher had an idea, but it was Heidegger (I think) who said that "being" is what makes a being what it is. Sofia seems like the definition of feminine "being." She is sweet and assertive, she is lust and comfort, she is beauty and opinion, she is voice and feeling. But it's very presumptuous to think that in one, two, three times you encounter this essence you will understand. Sofia is what teaches and unveils you, she is what defines the feminine being. And learning is a process. How good that it's a process! So I can go back to see, understand, feel, enjoy, savor this "being" of Sofia as a woman.
