Just my thoughts #0322

When individuals who have successfully overcome adversity and achieved social recognition view the world through their ability to conquer personal struggles, challenges emerge. Seeing the experience of overcoming hardships through diligent effort as an opportunity to cultivate genuine self-confidence enhances positive self-esteem. However, evaluating everything in the world solely from that perspective can lead to significant difficulties for both yourself and others. My success may change me, but there are no guaranteed formulas to positively impact the world. Success holds value when it becomes an internal celebration within me. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Although it may seem like an exaggeration, relationships are influenced by circumstances beyond just individuals; this extends to their upkeep as well. The interplay between a person’s character, personality, profession, surrounding individuals, and various political and economic factors intricately shapes the development and sustenance of human connections. Therefore, while it’s essential not to overly criticize individuals, it’s equally important not to overlook these influences. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There were three things that only kings could do—and they did them. Firstly, kings made the law. Secondly, kings were responsible for measuring and displaying time by seasonal divisions. The third is to determine the music scale. These three things have one thing in common: they set standards. The legislation is the foundation for order and dispute resolution in human society. Time measurements and indications are the standard for measuring the length of life in nature. The king sets the standard for music. Why? Music is a comprehensive collection of art, mathematics, and physics. Music is, in fact, a political act. It's incredibly complex. I find music the most challenging of all. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In the USA, even in one country, the time difference between the west and the east is 3 hours. People thought that time was a natural thing. But it is not. It's very political. The time that man lives in a unit of minutes is too short. However, since the invention of the steam locomotive, the appearance of faster vehicles made crazy changes to the concept of time. The shift in distance made people realize what time was. Sandford Fleming, an engineer and inventor, asked to unify the time difference caused by long-distance transportation, but people rejected his request. If the boarding time were not fixed, the railroad would be useless. The history of the 24-hour clock was made only about 140 years ago. Even with the invention of high technology, if nothing is consensus, nothing benefits. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
