It is said that men put their words in their hearts, and women put their hearts in their words. Men simply want to present the facts, while women seek empathy. Men speak to solve problems, but women talk to relieve their minds. Although the language used is the same, the grammar of the mind works is often different. Even if their expressions differ, both are necessary; because they are different, we don’t need to build walls. It’s hard, but accepting ‘difference’ opens up a new world. Therefore, the first step to happiness is communication. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Yeast consumes glucose and produces alcohol along with CO2. This action serves as a defense mechanism to protect against other microbiomes. In other words, the alcohol produced by yeast acts as a poison to eliminate other microbiomes. Thus, a solution with over 70% alcohol concentration can effectively eradicate the COVID-19 virus. We gladly consume the poison that yeast produces in liquor. Probably, isn’t there only a very thin line between happiness and unhappiness? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

When dealing with others in good faith and suffering from the reality that the rules and methods of life they believed in are no longer accepted, you should question the “Good Samaritan Complex.” The better a person is, the harder it is to realize that they are confined within a distorted framework. If you see people around you who don’t want to put themselves at a disadvantage for others as you do, or if you’re angry and uncomfortable with the fact that others don’t show their sympathy, you should look back to see if your goodness is a defense mechanism protecting you from being hurt. The problem with Good Samaritans’ lives is not their attitude toward life but rather how they are perceived by others too much. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
