We will see at the beginning how questioning and philosophical thinking are beneficial for the mind, encouraging us to acquire a place for freedom, by moving away from assumptions driven by society and our preconceptions. Can the act of philosophizing then be defined as an attempt to question knowledge in the face of ignorance? Can philosophy contribute to reconciliation between us and others and the contemporary world? It seems that philosophizing coincides with the act of questioning. The birth of philosophy was characterized by amazement among the Greeks. It was not naive or naive amazement, but sensory amazement that encourages intellectual curiosity and thinking and contemplation. It was about questioning phenomena and working to understand them. If philosophy has been linked from the beginning, in ancient times, to rituals and myth, and then to a kind of belief, it has since broken away from that. It has liberated itself from the popular perception of the universe. However, the question of the origin of the world was strongly present. Because in the moment when humans found themselves "thrown" (jetés) into the world, they questioned and still insistently question the place they came from and why there is a being.
