Philosophy develops interest in wisdom which is different from knowledge. Philosophy is a way of thinking about the world, the universe, and society. People do philosophy by asking questions about the world and about how people think. The ideas in philosophy are often general and "abstract". But this does not mean that philosophy is not about the real world. Ethics, for example, asks about how to be good in our day-to-day lives. Metaphysics asks about how the world works and what it is made of.
