Philosophy is meta-thought

It's so simple I almost came in my pants when I had this revelation. If anyone ever asks you to define philosophy, just say "philosophy is the meta of thought". This is the clearest, simplest and most apt definition of philosophy there could ever be.

I disagree, language is mostly effectively for circumstances which are directly happening, because they are simple things to describe. Language is unable to cope with the fluidity and ambiguity of history and memory. Take dreams for example. Experiencing life as it happens is fairly easy, but dreaming shows what a mess the brain makes of past events, and that sometimes it is barely capable of distinguishing between memory and experience. That's why language is best used for events which are spontaneously happening.
