Future and Attitude : My current attitude toward the future shapes my outlook on it. How I perceive the future influences my actions and mindset now. By analyzing past experiences, I identify patterns that help me compare and validate my expectations and predictions for the future . In other words, the past serves as material for judging the future. Therefore, my judgments and current behavior stem from reflecting on the future I have already envisioned . If I don’t decide on my outlook and attitude toward the future, my present self remains undefined. This is known as ‘CONFLICT.’ Today, an unclear future coexists with past experiences that form specific patterns. Why is time important? Because to exist in the present, both past and future must be simultaneously present. If these two tenses are not reflected now, decision-making stalls , and conflict continues due to its effects. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
A painting embodies both media and authority. The mural in the medieval cathedral catered to the illiterate, who could not read the Bible. Access to written information was granted solely to priests, representing a form of power. The Reformation diminished this authority. New forms of media transform power dynamics, either generating or redistributing power. This influence shapes our everyday experiences. Writing, photography, and graphics continue to affect power structures. To understand the shifts in power, you must engage in a blend of art and business. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
