**The Unexamined Life in an inner sense **
Socrates is concerned about the second version of the unexamined life, which is the case where you trust your first impression instead of your deeper self./nThis can lead to a life where you don't awaken your inner Socrates to ask yourself, am I really in love with this person? Or is it just that my palms are sweaty? Am I really happier when I make lots of money? Or am I just taking at face value something that my brain is telling myself, is my train really moving? Or am I just responding to what vision got into my body faster than the other senses?/nWe need to examine our own assumptions about what we think we want and about what we think we need in order to live a life worth living.
