Just my thoughts #0733

People recognize that perfection is a worthwhile trait, and everyone strives for it. However, humans cannot attain perfection, and we must admit that pursuing it can cause major setbacks. Imperfection and immaturity often make others more empathetic. No matter how excellent or meaningful something is, if a person rejects it, it won’t be helpful. The empty space in a picture provides us with relaxation and comfort. Nobody likes stress. Children are seen as adorable and lovable because their surroundings are spacious and clean. Emotions flow into empty space. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Speaking negatively to others stems from my discomfort. Positive language fosters respect and happiness in relationships. This isn’t merely due to the “power of positivity”; it’s how our brains have evolved to interpret it. When asked, “Why don’t you study?” the negative framing prompts the brain to release cortisol, which ramps up stress. Consequently, the brain associates “studying” with unpleasantness. Conversely, if you say, “I appreciate your studying even while you play,” the message shifts. Parents shape children; husbands influence wives, and wives impact husbands. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
