That reminds me of a line from
This is Spinal Tap. David St Hubbins is talking about his girlfriend, Janine, and he says, "Before I met Janine, my life was cosmically a shambles. I was just using bits and pieces of whatever eastern philosophy floated over my transom. But she came and sorted it all out for me and gave me a path to follow."

Metaphysics is still being explored in philosophy, and if it's taught correctly, it's anything but dry, but if you're not interested, I don't think anyone here would try to convince you to go get philosophy degree.
