What Truly Moves This World: Ostensibly, politics drives the world. But in reality, war, religion, and slavery are the true forces behind it. War redefines core values and shifts the balance of power in society. Naturally, power also plays a role. Even though the Roman Empire fell, the Christian Church has lasted over 2,000 years. Religion always exceeds politics. No slavery now? Even without an explicit system, slave-like traits and statuses still exist across society. Maybe this won’t disappear until the end of the world. War, religion, and slavery are fundamental to these economic systems and monetary policies . The flow of money and changes in the economic system can be understood through these three forces. - 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”
