When we see someone speaking, we often feel like they’re talking above their station. We sense that their words don’t align with their type or personality. It doesn’t feel like they’re in sync with our community and so on. But let’s think differently. What exactly does aligning words with type mean? Is there a criterion for this? Or maybe the person has only spoken informally so far and now can’t seem to speak formally. Oh wait, I digressed. Here’s my point: when you feel like someone’s speaking above their station, take a moment to consider that maybe you’re feeling resentment towards their words. Perhaps it’s a feeling of inadequacy, a lack of those thoughts. A feeling that someone can’t think that widely. Our society doesn’t encourage this type of thinking, and so on.

Imagine a place, truly empty, with nothing in it, not even you, just your mind, in a white, soundless, and imageless void.
What do you think you would be doing in this place? Trying to understand why everything is white, why there is no sound, why there is nothing.
Suddenly, your mind starts to move in this environment, in fact, you are moving in this environment, you reach other minds that are also involved in this environment. One corner of this environment is occupied by desire. Sometimes, those minds push each other out of the way because of this desire.
Good news, you find another mind that is just like you, wandering.
I don’t have a good relationship with people who label themselves as having a flaw. For example, someone who sees their large brain as a disadvantage. Why is this? Because we don’t have a real, true definition for this issue. You can’t say a small brain is good and a large brain is bad. Another example, someone says their ethics are bad and because of that, they condemn themselves.
You can’t say their ethics are bad, because ethics don’t have a completely correct definition. Maybe the most ethical people are less accepted because of their ethics.
My point is that as long as we don’t have a specific criterion, we can’t label anything or anyone as “deviant from the norm.”
Worse still, it’s not just the person himself, but someone else may label someone else’s ethics as deviant from society’s norm. Perhaps that person has a unique perspective and has no interest in being part of society, so their ethics don’t need to be accepted by a society that doesn’t align with their values. As a result, their ethics are not only deviant from the norm but also completely correct.
In conclusion, labeling someone as deviant from the norm is a faulty concept. We need to understand that people have their own unique perspectives and ethics, and instead of labeling them as flawed, we should celebrate their differences.”
Individuality, composed of perspectives, is based on self-confidence which is also based on perspectives and experiences. Social relationships also have a base on self-confidence, which is based on perspectives.
If an individual faces a problem with their social relationships, they will search for the root of the issue in their self-confidence. By further reflection, they will discover that the root of their self-confidence lies in their perspectives. When their perspectives are not what they should be, their perspectives will change.
What has occurred is a “creative collapse”, leaving behind an individual who is confused and lost. All of their inner structures have become level with the ground and they have returned to the beginning, a beginning that is not empty and still holds past experiences from their previous perspectives.
What needs to be done is to stabilize their perspectives or create conditions that will not allow for a change in perspectives that will cause a few stones, which have been placed on top of each other, to be disturbed and destabilize the individual’s inner structures.
Individuality builds self-confidence based on some variables and some stable perspectives. Their social relationships also exist based on this self-confidence.
Conclusion: An individual who has started to transform and rebuild from within and has taken the road less traveled, after several years, reaches a point where they have a clearer and stronger sense of self and their place in society.
This is the main reason for my difference.
Hard drives, unlike other computer components, are still mechanical, and writing and reading operations are performed mechanically within the hard disk drive (HDA). We all know that a simple bump can cause the spinning arm and head of the HDA to misalign and result in the loss of data stored in its position. Now, imagine combining this with the use of a traditional hard drive (not solid-state drive) in a laptop. It’s like a recipe for disaster, waiting for the inevitable drop or bump that could potentially cause data loss.
I recently had a first-hand experience with the consequences of using a mechanical hard drive in a laptop. Despite my efforts to be careful with my device, I was faced with a situation where a simple bump caused my hard drive to fail. Half a terabyte of data was lost in a moment, and there was no going back.
In my case, I was able to recover some of my data through various data recovery methods. However, it was a painful and time-consuming process. It’s a lesson that I’ll never forget, and one that I hope others can learn from. If you’re still using a traditional mechanical hard drive, consider switching to a solid-state drive to prevent data loss due to physical shocks and bumps. Trust me, it’s worth it in the long run.
Today, I had the intention to write, but nothing came to mind. I leaned back in my chair and let out a sigh. Suddenly, a loud noise startled me. I had to find a new topic, as the original idea wasn’t coming to me. I ended up choosing a different subject, one that was less expensive. Now, I will have to endure the noise.
I reduced my smoking habit. I quit half the amount I used to smoke. The weather is very warm today. Let’s save up and travel to the North Pole little by little.
I renewed my blog’s domain. It was twice the price compared to last year.
Today is also the birthday of Parvin Etesami. I remembered her poem “Drunk and Sober.” Parvin Etesami was a renowned poet of Iran who was born on February 8th. Her works still have an impact on Iranian literature and culture.
Taoism is a philosophy and religious tradition that originated in ancient China. The term “Tao” translates to “the way” or “the path,” and the central tenet of Taoism is to live in harmony with the Tao, or the natural order of the universe.
Taoism has its roots in ancient Chinese beliefs and is said to have been founded by Lao Tzu, a legendary sage who lived in the 6th century BCE. The main text of Taoism, the Tao Te Ching, is attributed to Lao Tzu and is considered a masterpiece of Chinese literature. The Tao Te Ching is a collection of 81 poems that provide insights and guidance for living in harmony with the Tao.
One of the key teachings of Taoism is the concept of non-action, or wu-wei. This means that one should live in a state of effortless flow, letting things happen naturally and not trying to control or manipulate events. This allows one to live in harmony with the Tao, avoiding unnecessary conflict and effort.
Another central concept of Taoism is the yin-yang duality, which represents the balance of opposite forces in the universe. Taoists believe that everything in the universe has both a yin and yang aspect, and that true balance and harmony come from finding a balance between these opposing forces.
Taoism also emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and not getting too caught up in worries about the future or regrets about the past. This is achieved by practicing mindfulness and focusing on the present moment, letting go of worries and negative thoughts.
In addition to its philosophical teachings, Taoism also includes various spiritual practices, such as meditation, tai chi, and qigong. These practices are designed to help one live in harmony with the Tao, cultivate inner peace, and achieve a sense of spiritual fulfillment.
Today, Taoism remains an influential philosophy and religious tradition in China and throughout the world. Many people find its teachings of living in harmony with nature, cultivating inner peace, and letting go of worries and negative thoughts to be practical and relevant for modern life.
In conclusion, Taoism is a rich and ancient philosophy that provides valuable insights and guidance for living a harmonious, fulfilling life. Whether you are interested in its teachings for spiritual reasons or simply as a way to find balance and peace in your daily life, the Tao has much to offer.
