Just my thoughts #0697

For a good to be distributed in the market, it must have value. Its value stems from several factors. In a complex world where networks and communication have advanced, values are assigned to groups with similar preferences. So, now, more than in previous eras, business is more prominent in the mania class, such as online clubs. The same applies to digital assets like NFTs. Ultimately, to be recognized for an unseen value, it must first be distributed by a group with the same preference that recognizes that value. Therefore, digital assets are mainly created by clubs, and to be acknowledged for their worth, the story behind the digital asset is absolutely essential. Storytelling has always been a very important asset. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0212

Jesus taught, “If you got slapped your right cheek, turn the other cheek.” One of the actions that the Jewish Qumran community denied and forbade was “pointing with the left hand.” Violations of this rule brought sanctions from the community. To hit the right cheek means the opponent strikes with an unclean left or right backhand. This cheek slap is deliberately insulting and humiliating rather than merely a pain-inflicting action. Therefore, this teaching of Jesus, “turn the other cheek,” suggests not allowing oneself to be struck by the back of the hand and can signify not being helpless but being active in nonviolent resistance without seeking revenge or retaliation. Perhaps this teaching carries a frightening meaning. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
