When individuals who have successfully overcome adversity and achieved social recognition view the world through their ability to conquer personal struggles, challenges emerge. Seeing the experience of overcoming hardships through diligent effort as an opportunity to cultivate genuine self-confidence enhances positive self-esteem. However, evaluating everything in the world solely from that perspective can lead to significant difficulties for both yourself and others.

Corn is a mysterious plant. It is the most viable crop on Earth, but it can only survive with human touch. Corn kernels look like plants born from the premise of human care, as the thick shells wrapping around the corn kernels can rot them if human hands do not peel the shells off. The more corn ripens, the more sugar converts to starch. Therefore, it’s delicious if you harvest it quickly and eat it immediately. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
