No matter how long you know someone, you can’t truly understand the mind of that person. A person’s values become evident when they face a dilemma—the dilemma of being unable to choose one option over another. Dilemmas arise amid contradictions where logic clashes, and in response to concerns and fears stemming from uncertainty. The conflict of logic and fear reveals the true nature of humanity. The decisions a person makes while overcoming a dilemma ultimately shape who they are. People often say that the totality of our choices defines our lives, and accepting the consequences, whether good or bad, is a reflection of our character. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Humans are bound by their experiences. The extent and depth of these experiences shape how time is perceived by individuals. Recognition occurs within a person’s unique time framework, which is distinct from physical time. Even sharing the same age, individuals experience time differently. In the absence of challenges, the scope of one’s experiences remains constrained, leading to a limited perception of time. Imagination draws from experience, broadening only through facing challenges and making attempts. Observing and immersing oneself in various experiences, such as travel, becomes valuable forms of learning that don’t require a teacher. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
