A philisophical question

I took the hike to the Zion overlook in my boots with four inch heels. I had my hiking boots in the car but it was only a mile. I didn't realize how slippery and rocky the path was going to be but I managed not to injure myself. As I was trying not to slip and fall down the canyon I passed by a family of five. Here is the exchange between a father and his four year old...

Daughter: Why can't we go down there Daddy?
Father: Because we have to stick to a path.
Daughter: Why don't we stick to THE path?
Father: Now that's a philosophical question.
Daughter: What's a philosophical question?

At this point I am right next to her and I couldn't help but laugh out loud. "What's a philosophical question?" Now THAT is a philosophical question.

Daughter: Daddy, why is she laughing?
Father: Because that was a very good question.

Yes it was.
