Is Science A Way of Life?

"The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking."
               ~Albert Einstein
       The funny thing is that most people don't notice that science is a way of life. Everything we do has something to do with science, and it's amazing, but sometimes confusing, just to think about it.
       This quote by Albert Einstein basically means that science isn't something complicated; it's all a form of common sense. Science has nothing magical or bizarre about it that would make people get lost, but it's about figuring out what you do everyday and relate it to science. Now, of course things like atoms and equations tend to confuse people when figuring it out. But when you understand the concept, then you will able to figure out anything that comes your way.
       Many of us do things that don't much mean common sense. However, if you change that, and make your thinking change to common sense, everything will become clearer. Science is the same way, but not at this simple of a level. Science is like a harder and newer way of common sense, by not only explaining yourself, but everything around you as well.
       After realizing the thinking part of it, there is still the "do". Use this quote by guiding your life. Just how science uses common sense to explain itself, using common sense in your life can change many things and solve many problems.
       And remember, Albert Einstein was a genius but still a human, and by using this and many other quotes, it might have helped him figure out things in his life as well.
