Discourse Part 1
In the very beginnning of Part 1, Descartes expresses how 'good sense' is something we are all born with. Many people seem to beleive that we obtain it all in many different ways, such as, through different experiences and the different roads we lead our lives on. Finding 'good sense', according to Descartes, takes time and humbleness to recognize that we are actually born with it. That we obtain it from day one and it is something that throughout our lives, we must recognize it and apply it, rather than search for it, and distract ourselves from it.

I totally agree with that statement....even the most "street smart" person, will still lack "good sense" if he or she does not have the experience needed to develop as a full human being.
