Reflect upon the implication of the value of philosophy. As a news reporter for a widely read magazine, you are tasked to write a feature article on the value and relevance of philosophy to the life of the people. Your article must be truthful to the claims made about philosophizing. You must also be able to show a broader perspective about philosophy as opposed to some preconceived notions about it. You will be graded based on your ability to explain the concepts that will show the value and relevance of philosophy as well as the soundness of your reasoning.

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a   bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
