Culture › The Existential Stimulus Struggle . by philoedu(op):
When it seems we have got to a stage where we can easily feel and afford to sit back and take a rest, we discover we could not just do it for various existential reasons. On the contrary, we find that we are often being forced to pursue what come to be known as the life stimulus struggle, aware of or not. The reason is not always far fetch, due to the fact that most times, we are always up for a new idea and a new pursuit as we tend consistently and constantly, either moving too far in one direction or not far enough of which the prevalent end result is often a complete confusion of the state of mind.
In the process, as it were, we may come to be over stimulated and reactive as to gear up to engage in one type of activities or the other, positive or negative as the case maybe. In this context, one could revert to one painful extreme to the other as to indulge in one profitable action that may eventually bring one to a point of more optimum stimulation of activity. The same is true, that in the other side of the spectrum, are those who may get themselves indulge even in the unprofitable platform with the negative stimulation as to get even more committed to the unexpected ugly side of event. In spite of what looks like a pendulum like swinging of event, there are still those who may be able to maintain a steady center cause just like those who may not be able, as to instead find themselves in a swinging back and forth on either side of the pendulum for no fault of theirs and without a tangible result.

This reality can be deduced from any individual psychology, through which any one can be assisted through a process of adjustment as to come to term with this individual reality. It is also true that taking for instance, an individual from the country side, who have been living in a quite environment and a peaceful atmosphere; of cause, such individual may, no doubt, come to develop the habit of tolerance, for a low-level life of activities over time. On the opposite end, may be an individual from down town busy metropolis, and when thrust suddenly into a quiet and peaceful countryside with low level life of activities, will definitely and quickly find it boring and irritating to the extent that it could even be unbearable and verse versa with the individual from the countryside.

In other to contend with this state of affair adequately to the balancing principle of the stimulus struggle, it is imperative and profitable for such provision of adjustment, a kind of movement or routine activity that act as a stimulation or dissimulator as the case maybe. It is interesting to observe, however that often we seem very much less sympathetic and hostile toward those who find it difficult to adjust to low level of activity depending on which side of the divide we may find convenience to our level. The same is true that, often, a bored individual can sometimes irritate us, then overburden and harassed individual, of which the question is what could be responsible for such judgment, if not psychological.

There are contingent answers as it were, for such question, of which the more prominent in psychological term is due to lack of effective tackling of the stimulus struggle components that reside our disposal which are not adequately paid attention to in our day to day leaving. Sometimes, the manifestation of any negative judgmental attitude, of any two individuals is often, the result of a failure from the stand point of objectivity from both end of the spectrum.
And from their inability to effectively make use of the stimulus struggle concept from the objective point of view. The consequence of this, is often an irritation, intolerance and bad tempered of the individual concerned in the process. It is true that we are often prone to be sympathetic and forgiven towards the over-labor individual than those who are not. The reason for this could be as a result of not pushing the level a bit high enough to show that our culture is advancing. It will be observed that when we perceive the urge of stimulus struggle in a more balance direction, we become exploratory in our moment of introspection and the tendency to provide variation will not be lacking but immediate. The result of this is often obvious, when some level of attention is paid, in the exposition of the individual concerned in an exciting mood with objectivity. This is true, when in particular, an adequate intrinsic adjustment is adhered to at its high level, at any particular point in time in any environment.

It must be observed that the exploratory innovator type of individuals, as often come to be called, are not always happy due to their tendency to have to suffer a great deal of some psychological prototype. The psychological prototype relative to the environmental pressure coupled with the driving force of the like of impatient to conceive of any imaginary events. In the process, this could also result to the very consequence that may lead to a crisis of mental imbalance and disorientation due to mental overload, as it often come to called.

We must bear in mind that the aim and objective of the stimulus struggle, is self-evidence, even though, it may not appear an immediate progress with great achievement obtained, but an individual concerned will always experience an easy and disconnected and balanced environment. The same is true, that any sacrifice made toward this direction, will always manifest some form of especial tolerance and empathy with a unique sensibility towards the environment and everything else.

It is also true that this is not without adequate response toward any kind of frequent moody and incomprehensible wayward like behavior that is prevalent in any immediate environment. Sometimes, it is intuitively recognizable, that the inevitable outcome of unbalance stimulus in which most individual find themselves often have to due to this adverse effect.

It is interesting to emphases, however, that the adult stimulus struggle is very similar to that of the child’s play of which the parents often have the obligation to take care of any such problem. During the process, there is always a great deal of left-over energy to be dissipated toward positive direction or the very opposite. Through these playful activities of any child, is the accumulated energy to be dissipated in pursuit of the stimulus struggle. On the adult, the same energy often come to be dissipated through the various avenue employed in pursuit of the stimulus struggle of which most prevalent is the act of invention of new pattern of behavior. In any growing child, for instance, in playing activity, is such that every single move of their action performed, is often geared toward an unlimited invention and excitement. Evidently, this becomes a voyage of discovery of self, in his ability and capacity to explore the world around him.
It is interesting to emphasize that due to the level of reasoning, the inventiveness and exploratory act of the stimulus struggle may not be the specific objective of the growing child. But it remains the predominant feature and often the most valuable extraction from any playful activity of any growing child in this process.

It must also be emphasized that, if history has anything to offer, it is this positive aspect of the stimulus struggle which led to what happened, of which we were told, this sense of stimulus sounded through Europe like the blast of an archangel’s trumpet of which, history has it, that from king to ordinary peasant, that there arose an enthusiasm for knowledge as never before.
It was this spirit of the stimulus struggle that led to what many come to be known as the discovery of some manuscripts of age past that later become the very subject of embassy and according to history, it was what led even Dante of Italy to imagine himself a humble follower of Virgil and Ariosto of Homer. It is this same irrefutable compelling spirit of the stimulus struggle that made Erasmus, we were told, to read even in the moonlight, just because he could not afford even a torch or candle and had to beg for a penny, not for the love of charity, but for the love of learning and acquiring knowledge to balance this element of the stimulus struggle that arouse in him.
Culture › The Role Of Integrity In Individual by philoedu(op):
There is a great deal of lip service being paid to the role of integrity in the corporate and societal system today. Although integrity as a concept tends to mean different things to different people and it varies based on circumstances. In this context the paper is going to focus on individual integrity and its importance and the need to create a culture of integrity.

When we talk of an individual integrity, we are talking about character of a person, our trust and belief in an individual. When it comes to corporate or societal level, we are talking here about leadership that have what it takes to created a corporate culture of integrity that produce consistency, trust and predictable result. It will be an understatement to say that integrity, both of individual as a leader and of corporate culture is necessary for a long term success and corporate sustainability.

As an individual, integrity is about character of the individual, because it is the character that must be consistently considerate, compassionate, honest, transparent and indeed ethical. These characteristic must be closely associated with integrity, although, the definition of integrity may seems vague, but yet we characterize an individual with integrity as one we can count on to do something consistent and rightly of what is expected of such individual.
This is because, an individual with integrity is someone that can be reliable, predictable in dealing with issues and indeed, a defender of what is fair and acceptable.
According to a renowned psychologist, Dr, Robert. Turknett, integrity is the foundation of the model, of which without integrity, no leader can be successful. The same is true, that an individual with integrity does not twist fact for personal advantage, rather would be willing to stand up in defense of what is right and would be careful to keep promises. It is an individual to be trusted to tell the truth at any given time.

As model, integrity becomes the foundation of leadership that requires a very careful balance between respect and responsibility. Op-cit. When talking of corporate culture of integrity, it must start from the top and be seen in the conduct and activities, such that on the leadership level, it develop a consensus around a shared value that improves the work environment and productivity.
Christianity Etc › The Silent Power Of Attitude. by philoedu(op):
The power of Attitude can be found in Proverb 23;6-7, of which it can make us or brake us, and can heal us or hurt us. The same is true, that it can make us friends or can make us enemies. It can make us happy or miserable or make us a success or a failure in the journey of life. It is also true, that often times, the whole world stinks, but however, there is a narratives that says, about the cranking grandpa, who lay down to take a nap. But to have a little fun, the grandson has to put some limburger cheese on his mustache, just right under his nose. But when grandpa finally wake up, he shouted as loud as he could, -“the whole house stink !. He could not stop there; he shouted more loudly, the whole world stinks. But you know what the truth is, that it was grandpa who stunk or who is stinking. Simply because the problem was right under his nose.

The same is true, that when we think or feel that things in life stunk, the problem is not with the world or others but right within us, due to our attitude that has become so high in negativity. Because the moment we change our attitude to negative the whole world stinks but when we have a positive attitude, the whole world changes and no longer stinks. Now, how important is our attitude? Really, our attitude is more important than facts, circumstances, and what other may say about us at any given time. The same is true, it is more important than our past, than our education and indeed than our money. But we must understand that our attitude is much deeper than just a few of our thought or what we might think. Because our attitude comes from the very core of our being and it represent our disposition, our outlook and indeed, our character. This is because, our attitude often reveals who we really are according to Proverb 23; 7, “For as man thinks in his heart, so he is… (NKJV).

It is self-evidence, that it is not always easy when the stuff of life takes a knock on us, as to even kick one in the stomach. But at any such time, we must remember that there is something, that any type of situation cannot take away from you, and that is the power to choose your own attitude any given time. The very idea to blame our bad attitude on others or a difficult circumstance is but a false claim and outright lame excuse. The truth is that we must be on guide not to allow any event and people to cause us to put up with a negative attitude, otherwise, we only hurt ourselves the more with the effect and misery of the baggage our bad attitude may bring with it. But make no mistake that the awesome power to manipulate or choose our attitude is always the first thing in our disposition at any given time.

Therefore, the irony of our age stern from the very fact that in an age of much progress, what purpose could have appear more evident than the increase in the wellbeing of those who most need them , although, there remain an infinite scope of disagreement as to what means might be most effective to attain such end. The advent of globalization has given rise to the contrasting approaches of market –based macro-economic from work that has been the foundation of good governances on the one hand, and the sustainable human development on the other. Although, the later tends to put premium first on enhancing human capabilities and spreading the benefit of economic growth without much compromise of the need for the future generation.
Consequently, there is a paradox posed by individual desirable approaches which inevitably is at the center of this concept. As Goethe famously observed, “boldness has genius, magic and power in it”. The current reality call for boldness more than ever in support of any courageous act and fearless heart that remains open no matter what for the sake of collective good. The open heartedness that mitigate against defensive posturing and loss of faith that may be the foundation, if we choose, that enable clarity of effort and sense of direction that may have been lacking overtime.

Therefore, we must guide against the seed in our heart crusading for a cause without thought or respect for those who are on different cause. Because no matter how right we may feel, no matter how true our perspective may sound, but to continue to insist others share it, is in itself to reveal the very lie that perpetuate the conflict we are seeing around us today. We must take the first step, for others to emulate in our positive attitude to enhance the spirit of collective interest in what looks like, in deficiency and decaying situation .
Culture › The Deeper Question Of Man (part. 2). by philoedu(op): 4:00pm On Jan 15, 2023
Living up to our responsibility, could also mean that the only key and the centre and purpose of all human history is to be found in our creator. This is so, because beneath all the changes, are some other things unchanging, wether we are conscious of them or not which have their ultimate foundation in the creator and the son of man, which is the same yesterday ,today and forever.

In the light of this, through Christ who is the image of the invisibles God, we must be be able to address ourselves, to shed light on the mystery of man, as we strive to cooperate to finding a lasting solution to the problem of human conditions, in the maintenance of the freedom and service to his creator.

We must have perceive by now, through the history of man that what we tends to have in common is more important than any differences that might exist between us human.
Therefore, it is also true that in the light of this, it is possible that any doctrinal dispute can always be replaced by fruitful discussion and authentic dialogue in overcoming some of the vast complexity of the emotions that tends to stir and sway the heart of men.
It seems obvious that the future is a combination of the casual influence of our past with the unpredictable unforseen elements, such that, it is unpredictable, not merely because it is unpredictable to abtain any data of prediction, but because there is no such data connected causally with our experience which have been found to exist in the history of man.
The same is true, that we must not forget to remind ourselves that we should not seek for any worldly mission remote in time and space, because the truth must be said, that our mission lies just right where we are in the heart of humanity, but not in some distance and remote place or some momentous occasion.
However, we should know by now that God tends to work in a mysterious way, even though, we tends not to pay much
attention in our distractions, as we overlook virtually everything down to our fellow human being, not without the thought, that often time, that our true mission in life is to be revealed in some remarkable psychic vision.
Of course, it is clear, we only mislead ourselves in what looks like in a consumate ideas, instead of some token of positive gesture toward men and women,family and friends and acquittance that look forward for a need that gives us the opportunity to reveal our service to God.

At any given time, the task that is required of us may seems very little and simple, but millions of our fellowmen and women need them all the same, because they must leave to grow out from the shackles of human conditions, because God is not oblivion, hence, the demand as a token of service from everyone, which leads us to a greater light.

Culture › The Deeper Question Of Man. by philoedu(op):
Human condition, demand that, it is high time, we seriously have to ask the deeper question of man, as an image of God. Today the strains under which the world labours are, no doubt, connected with this fondamental question with the result of tensions.

There are in everyone this tension of several element which are in opposition. This is because, we feels ourselves limited in several ways, but at the same time, is this awareness of our unlimited aspirations of the call to a higher life.

The fact remains that when we are attracted to so many things, we bound to make choice to reject some and accept others, and this is bone out of human nature.

Although, we are sinful and weak, yet we are saddle with the responsibility to do what we would prefer not to do and fail to do what we would like to do, that seems beneficial to our wellbeing.
The consequences of this is that we divided against ourselves and others around us, as a result of which we lay the very foundation of discords that eventually, as a process, build up a society, full of contradictions.

It seems obvious, that many of us today, who in practice, are so absolved into what one may called materialistic bedrock, becomes so distracted from this internal drama or contradiction of man, at least, for any extreme want, of which often, we have no time to think about it.

The truth is that, due to this contradiction of man as the image of God, through which emanate the conflictuality, we are often forced to find refuge in various general theories and principles as we tends to move on with life.

Inspite, of this shortcoming, there are still those of us who are hopefully optimistic, about the Future of man as the true image of God, such that, with human effort, and taken responsibilities, all what God required of man will come to be melt.
Needless, to add that in the face of the various present day events, more people still feel deeply the very need to ask the fondamental questions of what is man and the meaning of pains and death, inspite of our material progress.

It must be bone in mind, however, that as human with the image of God of which man is privilege to be honoured, so long as equal attention is not paid authentically to the spiritual aspect, thus, the material aspect will only continual to strive in vain, and in particular, when we refuse to pay the need attention to (Isaiah 55, verse 8-11).
l think, it is so emblematic to note ! my word will not return to me idle, it will accomplish my will, the purpose for which it has been sent.

Therefore, whether we like it or not, we must acknowledged that Christ Jesus has come to live an exemplary life for us to imitate and eventually dead and rose again just for our sake, and we are not told another will be coming to dei again, and he left with us His spirit to strengthen our effort which is enough to live up to our responsibilities.
Culture › The Power Of Context . by philoedu(op):
Humor as we are all aware is present in every culture or groups and its context also varies across culture. The same is often true, that Jokes do not often translate into what we expect, due to differences in social structure and cultural norms. Often, there is no universally accepted manner of Joke, and the same is true that what is funny in one culture may not be amusing in another culture, - Michelle Brenner, (2016).

It may not be necessary to move to another country to have a taste of a cross cultural experience, because in today world, our home, work and school and shopping mole are all –contexts of diverse cultures. Cross cultural management is taught in business as well as management schools but not in international market area, but in relation to managing teams within organization.

Often, culture evolves from like-minded groups or individuals as a shared values and experiences. It is true we have common share history with meaning, but often taken for granted, that evolve into a complex culture.

It is also true that to mediate, it is not always necessary to know the in-and-out of all the cultures, to be able to act a mediator. Because it is a part of our business to know of the very dynamic of culture, context, and communication, as well as how this impact on conflicts. Therefore, the key to cross cultural communication is through the dynamic of directional awareness, of whether the communication is moving toward constructive or destructive direction.

For instance, when a communication is moving towards a destructive direction, take a breath and see if the cultural differences in meaning is been overlooked and at what level from one party and seen as critical factor by the other party. And what we must pay attention to is the context and information overload that are so related at one point or other.

It must be observed that often, there is culture shock in crises of knowing that one is shocked into unexpected different awareness. This is always the moment one may feel out –of depth and aware that something is terribly wrong. Then comes the culture stress which is a term used to describe the overload of information which occurs as we relate to a new culture. But culture stress is more of a long term adaptation of a process. In order to communicate in comfort, we must communicate and relate to others to be taken for granted with a sense of knowing and been known, that do not required a lot of attention.

It is often true that when there is ongoing attention and awareness required to grasp what is really taken place or happening, we are unable to just take for granted the meaning, because of being met with dissonance or finding ourselves in the cold. The period of adaptation required information processing that may be stressful like -“an air traffic controller” (ref. -M. Brenner).

According to Anthropologist Edward T.Hall-(1951-1955), - “what one pays attention to and what one does not attend to is largely a matter of context”…And contextual awareness is developed through culture. According him- “Almost everyone has difficulty believing that the behavior they have, is always associated with human nature, but is not with human nature at all but learned behavior”- Opcit.

And according to Darley and Bateson, 1973, “context determines human behavior more than personality”.

This same is true that being in hurry is often the reason to walk past a person lying on the pavement, and it means the context of being in a hurry is the reason rather than that of the personality that is not caring.
It must be observed that it is the context that is feeding the meaning of the word, because context is a hidden language, through the neuroscience, being understood through spreading or (contagion) emotions. For instance when you yawn, it makes me yawn. According to Donald Hebb, a Neuropsychologist, “neurons that fire together, wire together”. This simply means, the more we use our brain, the more it becomes a habit and a comfort zone. The same is true, when we get use to the habit of mixing and communicating in a high context cultures, our brain will also get use to drawing meaning from that context.

But if we are used to communicate in a low context culture, we cannot be turning into the context to understand what is being communicated, because those neurons that do not fire together cannot wire together. In other word, it is a process and a continuum between high context and low context cultures, of which High context cultures draw its meaning and interpretation from context that surround an interactions or events. But Low context culture, on the other hand draws its meaning from information from only what is just present. However, it must be observed that no culture ignores high or low context except that they often tends to buttress higher or lesser values.

Culture › The Enigma Of Doing The Basics. by philoedu(op):
The topic as you can see is tagged "moral decadence" a sort of total decline in some standard of living in general terms. This is both as a family, individual, and indeed as a society. The question that may come up here is what do we transfer to the next generation in terms of culture and standard of living. Because, often it seems to me that, there seems to be a distraction in this line of thinking in general, with the enigma of just moving on for sake of moving on.

Not that people are not aware that such concepts or ideas as a contention do not exist to be seriously addressed. Except that people don't seem to share the same very spirit of collectivism, on the contrary, often to the direction of individualism that does not seems to solve any problem other than to compound it. Now let me extend this further in terms of the continent of the like of Africa which seems to find itself in what I choose to call "IL Bivio" or the junction with many pathways, of which not knowing the right one to take in order to meet up with her aspirations.

What actually happens is that she is sort of now stranded not knowing which part is the right way to take to get over her problems talk less of what its priorities are. Of cause, due to her problems, she becomes already exceedingly nervous emotionally, not often composed as she tends to blame others for every of her predicament. Some contingent and necessary truths might be available to render some insight into how to get the basic things right.

But as I said, the nervousness and emotional distraction become an obstacle of which insecurity tends to find its shadow that overwhelm the spirit of clear thinking, as to even know that -you just cannot -"do any quality jump" without the basic rules, simply because others are doing so. And some of these basics tend to lie beneath the mood of tradition, culture and religions that often supposed to have made up the value system.

We as an individual, as family, and society, as I said, are just missing the point in disregarding a certain basic issue like" Moral Standard of living in our society of today, as in the concept of collectivism or individualism that tends to be playing a role without actually a well-defined role in the society at large. Now how long we really have to remain in this Bivio-or Junction- is left to be desired, as there are always praises of inexplicable strive of development, truth or false?. Of cause, there is always a choice to make between Inductive method and the Deductive Method-.

The first part is to view what looks like the discrepancies that exist and adapt right method that may require the Inductive method which is "from the Particulars to the Universal or General. On the other hand, is the Deductive method which is "from the General or Universal to Particulars.
But do not get me wrong, because in the end, it has to do with taking responsibility by every individual, family, and society that must be accountable either individually or collectively at the end of time-because distraction has a level that must be overcome for the sake of advancement. It seems education is having adverse negative effects on Africans to the very neglect of their culture and tradition. Therefore, they need to take a step backward, in other to get it right, because for now, they seems to be missing the mark as long as they are eager to want to move like the others .

But they must pay attention to the basics of their own environment without which it could just be a wistful thinking, although, it will always appear to the contrary. Because the others were not without such problem of today, but they did have to carry out the necessary sacrifice and if you like pay the price to get where they are and to the very level to have got it right a long time ago. And what they are simply doing in this level is trying to fine-tune every basic steps and if need be, carrying out some corrections where it seems not to have got it right, like the "climate change, due to some distractions. The African continent, on the other, instead of learning to do basics in their unique environment, they are now been drawn into facing up with the general trends of mistake of those who have long gotten it right, to the extent of been passive of their immediate problems.

The result is that they are in a "junction” or IL Bivio’’, a sort of confused state of which they are not very sure of the right thing to do domestically and end up not knowing what part to follow that actually result in what looks like an infighting without any form or insight of what need to be done to develop. But there is always a choice to make, which is taking the step from outside-in or taking it from inside out. The overall suggestion is that the Africans must strive to put their environment in order without falling into the same mistake like the others, which means doing the basics in terms of moral standard and traditions, putting the peculiar reality in perspective instead of want to generalize issues.

Culture › The Language Paradox Of Safety . by philoedu(op): 11:08am On Oct 21, 2022
As a human beings, we yearn for safety and security on daily bases. The same is true that we also yearn for freedom of thought, actions, integrity, and trustworthiness in our relationship with our fellow human beings. These desirable qualities of life, no doubt, are often within the reach of every individual. This is true because every human being is endowed with a basic quality of life and we often intuitively expect them because they characterize the very reality which is inherent in every free individual human being.

But whenever we forget who we are, the result is often that we yield our individual freedom and autonomy to what appears to us and to what we see and feel around us. When we look at the mirror, we believe we are the image we see in the mirror. But when we allow our human condition to get the better part of us, and inform us of who we are and what is going on, the result is that we are consenting to a division between ourselves and the world of others. The same is true that what we allow to divide us, no doubt conquers us.

Safety and Security are never an issue of oneness, but scientific metaphysics did teach us that any conscious individual that lives responsibly is ever practicing the act of oneness to discern the spiritual facts of everything that confront him. And knowing is the function of consciousness and we live in a world where we consciously exist and the world is never there as something that separates from us. Problems and their solution often began right where we live our conscious beings. Nothing exists external to our consciousness.

The same is true that when we live consciously, we become aware intuitively the-“doing unto others as we would like others to do unto us” The golden rule works because “oneness” is intuitively a constituent of being and it precedes and embraces our daily living. In addition, when we live consciously and are aware of who we are as a (being/mind/God-idea), we experience the simulation of the reality of joy, power, and peace. Without reality, no appearance world is going to be possible, so it seems.

The same is true that when you do not know who you are, it is difficult, if not impossible to address all those others around you, appearing in your world. Therefore, the challenge remains of how to redeem the supposed division or separation that exists. Oneness is the very law of being. And language, no doubt remains dual in its mode of consciousness in defining wholeness. In Eddy’s view, “knowledge of God-idea is gained through the opposite fact and phenomena” And the paradox of language is the appearance of the world called the human condition. In this human condition is the issue of security that begins with the very reflection of who and what is being threatened and the nature of the such threat.

The appearance is a spiritual fact of being shown as language appropriate in use from an individual point of view. And every individual tends to live in a world on his /her own term, with the question of – if I am in danger and if I am failing or if the world is in danger, etc. But there is freedom only when what is feared to turn out to be just a belief without substance or reality. But when it is just a mere belief, without substance the fears often tend to dissolve and dissipate or fade away.

In the dimension of reality is the disclosure of oneness and wholeness of mind/love/spirit. And it generates to sustain all that exists. It is the consideration of this spiritual fact of being that will enable one to call into question the very nature of who or what threatens and who or what is being threatened. Whatever the limitation we come to fear, will always present itself as a simulation of reality or belief system in our human experience.

But any simulation of reality or belief system, thought to exist, separate from the mind, the very generative source will always manifest itself in the form of threat, instability, and irresponsibility. The same is true when you confront belief with facts; you demonstrate the temporal nature of language as a concept. But concepts do not often bring satisfaction and fulfillment, simply because appearance is not capable of generating experience but serves only to measure the level of self-awareness.
The fact is that "Being'' is one and every individual must tell the truth regarding who they are and what is taking place. Because language as a concept is just the point of view of an individual but not a concrete fact of existence. It is also true that we must hold our thought to the fact of Being, that live his/her divinity in order to experience the very language that is pleasing, satisfying, and fulfilling in the arena of oneness and stability.
Culture › The Demand of the Law of Change. by philoedu(op):
The law of change has been embedded with the evolutionary effort of man through which the human race has come to slowly lift itself up from the baseline of all other creatures. The baseline where the destiny of all living things has been fixed by life patterns and instinct, through which man has, always strive since time immemorial. It is obvious that the entire history of mankind has come to be clearly marked as a pattern of perpetual change, moving onward and forward. It has become the creature’s device from the rational human to those irrational animals or other creatures.

This is true in the eternal –authenticity and a variety of life habit and thought of a man that is continually reshaping into a system of relationship, moving into a more harmonious and better understanding of his environment. It is imperative, not to lose sight of this pattern of change, in the life of man in his evolutionary journey. Because it is this device of change through which we adequately comprehended and put into use the habit and attitude to master the very cause of fear of change which is but opposition to the overall pattern of the universe. To conform to this overall plan of the universe of change or perish, is always nature’s warning through the manifestation of some devastation that often comes to be witnessed over the centuries past even till this current period- like climate change or homegrown escalations of troubles.

This is true to the extent that oftentimes, the fear and failure and indeed, the very shock of disappointment in humans, are designed to shake loose of this fixed habit that man has tenaciously clung to. But no matter at what level man has struggled with his irrational paranoia, and the change that has always been the very device through which we adopt, embrace, and even benefit from the better habit of growth. In this perspective, education becomes the very bedrock of transformation that starts the mind of the individual to grow and develop from within through introspection. The mind which has become accustomed to the freedom and impartiality in its habit of growth will always preserve something of the same in the world of action and emotion. It will view his purposes and desire as part of the whole. And of cause, in the absence of such insistence that results from seeing them as just a fragments in a world in which all the rest is unaffected by any one man's deeds.

Education causes the mind to evolve and expand as it moves from the primary level to the highest level through constant changes in the very thinking process and reflections. It is through this thinking process and reflection; we often come to develop an act of rationalism and become acquainted with what may be called potential power to advance. Make no mistake, it is through this avenue, we are capable of not only striving to solve individual and collective problems but also confronting and coming to terms with our realities in our evolutionary effort. it is self-evident, that this theory, no doubt, conforms to nature’s plan as found through the human experience of inventions, which forces man to use and develop his mind power. The same is true that this law of change is the very source of education. Understanding this reality; you will no longer oppose this inalienable heritage from nature that has given us a wide scope of understanding of ourselves and the environment.

It is significant though, to know that the traits that our creator seems most emphatically frown upon in man are –complacency, procrastination, fear, and self-imposed limitation and oppression, all of which, no doubt, carry with them, not without consequences. Although, complacency and habit have come to win a victory over change and progress over time, in this part of the world and this is unfortunate. It must be emphasized, though, that the only and only one means by which the creator provides man to break away from other irrational animal to ascend into a spiritual estate, to be master of his own fate, is this very law of change, that must not taking for granted.

And our creator does this through the simple process of mental attitude and draws a pattern of living, in conformity with nature, and makes it into a reality. This irrevocable and unchallenged power of what looks like absolute control has since been considered by others to be the most and only important prerogative for man. And to come to deny him or be denied this very right, no doubt, amount to repression and misconception of the central purpose of what man’s life is all about.

The fixed habit and self-imposed limitation are but an attitude that openly shuns knowledge and all that it represents in man’s evolutionary journey, in the very acceptance of living by the truth of others long past. The same is also true, that it is but an act of resistance to the truth and the very foundation they have come to predicate the truth. The truth that tends to represent what looks like a vociferous attack on growth and advancement, to use Debbie’s phrase.

Of cause, which in many individuals’ own perspective, ‘no one dares to question, which but represents their fear of the unknown and the unseen that becomes the very reason why they often instigate others to follow suit because they are always comfortable with the state of affairs. According to Debbie, the same is true, that they don’t often know how to ‘be’ and could not let others ‘be’, hence, the very concept of change has become not only instigative but unpleasant to hear, although, it sounds great, but remain one of the most difficult, if not impossible notion to grapple with in its very basic essence.

The reason is clear because, in particular, it challenges the very status –quo which not only of which they have come to find comfortable but also seems to threaten their very existence. But in man’s evolutionary journey, it is but a mandate that he must strive to comply with this evolutionary element of his being. This is true, if he must come to terms with the infinite truth, the state of ‘just being,’ to use Debbie’s phrase again, which is but a metaphysical dimension through which one becomes aware that we are just a student of the universe who must be humble and obedient to learn from everything and everyone around us.

The term metaphysical dimension here, is but a dimension that transcends rational discourse without lapsing into rationalism, the last precarious refuge of the human truth to which man’s own thought tends always to aspire. Because out there are forces outside our control and comprehension that are totally defying any reasonable explication in our daily struggle for survival. It is significant to know that nature tends to lead man through change after change by peaceful means as long as we cooperate with her, but she results to the opposite and reacts , only when we neglect and abuse and indeed refuse to conform to the law of eternal change.

It is probably one of the reasons that when things get foggy, the universe is not playing any form of trick, but only a reminder just to try to stare man in the right direction for the sake of making an adjustment necessary or appropriate to make change. The reason seems clear, and obvious, because, she enforces the law of fixation of habit and instinct in every living thing lower than humans, just in the same way as it enforces the law of change and rational habit in every living thing higher than animals. And when this is brought into full efficiency through close attention and discipline, it will always make a difference, hence, the level and degree of rationality do also vary. Therefore, those who oppose change are but to say the least, vampire-like -associates who are more likely to drain you of life–given energy and potentiality than restore the innocent qualities of your heavenly soul.

Culture › Salient Issue About Behavior And Habit. by philoedu(op): 10:53am On Sep 13, 2022
When it has to do with improving ourselves, and this could be individually or collectively, it is imperative we take into consideration our Behavior and Habits. Because these concepts goes a long way to influencing our focus and determination in their advantage and disadvantages in any individual and indeed, in our collective psychology. It must be observed that the aim of this write-up, however, is simply to remind us of the impact of behavior and habit in our daily activities.

This is to enable us to put them in constant check through awareness and reflections in other to overcome the hurdle of daily challenges we tend to face, although, not without other similar concepts of the like of attitude that often plays out during interactions with others. However, to be clear, it will be appropriate to define these two concepts in order to identify them and know how they interact and impact our daily lives as individuals and as a society. It must be observed that we are distinct and unique from one another, not only in the physical aspect but also in our attitudes and behavior. We are told that our behavior is an inherent trait of an organism towards our environment and other organisms.

But this comes to be controlled by what biology refers to as "endocrine and our nervous system", hence, the very complexity of our behavioral pattern comes to be set by this complexity of the nervous system. These two concepts, of Behavior and Habit, tend not to be taken seriously in our everyday activities, and yet they often have a disorganizing effect both in the life of the individual as well as that of the society at large. Often, in an act of generosity or wickedness, these two concepts tend to be taken for granted, consciously or unconsciously.

But in reality, they remain a salient issue and are being denigrated in our daily activities. In psychology, a person is often come to be described through behaviors and habits, when the individual may be possessed. The reason is that such behavior and habit tend to tell the character and identity of the individual as well as the overall attributes of that person. Although these two concepts seem to be misused as one and the same, the reality is that they are different when it comes to defining the character and identity of any individual at any given time.

Therefore, Behavior means the overall reaction or response to various stimuli and other internal or external input that may be voluntary or not, in any given environment. And any such common behavior can be acceptable or unacceptable. And we often come to judge behavior acceptability by social norms and by nature, we tend to abide by these norms. The same is true, that as a basic human action, our individual behavior tends to depend a great deal, upon the behavior of others, whether we are aware or not. Therefore, it must be observed that our behavior, apart from being a response to an environment or a situation, is also the overall reaction to the different actions in coordination with any given situation in any surroundings.

But this often happens, through the individual system or organism that may be voluntary or involuntary. In their differences, Habit is an act we repeat until it becomes automatic, which is often unnoticed due to its subconscious nature. While Behavior is the reaction of the system due to impulses around it. The same is true, in that habit being the act manifested repeatedly and subconsciously becomes a routine at some point. Because it is an act we do over and over again, which in most cases, has its advantage and disadvantages.

But it does require to be checked due to its positive aspect of learning which is compulsory to enhancing our intellectual stride at any given time. Another major difference is that while Habit is subconsciously repeated, even when not sometimes intended, it is often unconsciously done. Behavior, on the other hand, is the reaction to any outside impulses, often, consciously done

It must be observed, that behavior becomes an output of any individual towards any given environment or situation, while habit becomes an input of any environment or situation and in particular, for certain individuals, through which emanate the very saying of- "habit die hard".

Therefore, habits and behavior could lead anyone to be complacent about the most obvious things due to the subconscious and unconscious nature of our life. Often, certain individuals are quick to dismiss these salient and yet basic concepts with a wave of the hand.

This is true in particular, in modern politics and economics and yet they remain a complex and stunning issue that required to be tackled through education. Because any adequate educational system has the potential to unravel certain historical problems through this concept in society, although, these concepts often come to be treated as a none issue, and in fact, not without consequence as it exacerbates.

Education › The Influence Of Attitude In Productivity by philoedu(op): 9:47am On Aug 27, 2022
It is must be made clear, that there are varieties of definitions for attitude, which seems to center around the notion that evolves the measuring of people, issues and objects etc. This measurement often center on two components which are cognitive and affective and that is to say -values and beliefs. Our values and beliefs is a combination of cognitive component. And these components often give us a long range, of persistent measurement in dealing with people and environment we find ourselves. (Bootzin, 1983). By values, we mean the ideas about the worth and importance of concept, things and people that emanate from personal beliefs system. As it were, value is one of the components of attitude, because it assists to determine how individual act to weigh the importance of various alternatives of options that may lay bears.
And indeed, individual of whatever categories have different level of attitude that can be accessed through involvement in the performance of any assigned responsibility at any given time. Therefore, an attitude tends to pave the way for behavioral action which ultimately can influence productivity to enhance or impede a viable development. It is also true that attitude and productivity tends to be studied to have being found to have various factors responsible for some level of relationship.
It is argued that attitude tends to be favorable when some level of affection, recognition, friendliness and freedom are allowed to enhance productivity. But where this is ignored and lacking, there emanate a low attitude of moral with low productivity that may become the common theme, although, may not be outwardly put on display but certainly, may remain a hindrance. The same is true that any unfavorable attitude towards any individual or group of people can also result to a poor relationship with lack of recognition, inequality, and insecurity.
It must be emphasized, though, that any individual with lack of satisfaction in an environment could be as a result of lack of ethical value and standard that may inhibit some level of attitude detrimental to productivity and advancement in the system.. It is also true, that when productivity and development are adversely affected, any form of advancement with aim and objective could also come to suffer. It is pertinent therefore, to note that favorable or unfavorable ethical values, as the case maybe, must have some lay- down procedures and standard, as to be able to establish the guideline of conduct, attitude and behavior in the system. And value is the ideas about the worth and importance of things, concept and people. They all emanate from person’s belief and value is a component of attitude. And value helps us to weigh the importance of various alternatives and determine how we act. It tends to drive individual effort. Therefore, the successes of any system or society come to depend to a large extent of the attitudinal factor towards increasing productivity and development. Of cause, self -discipline is called into question here, because it assists in developing certain principle in guiding the individual feelings, conduct and behavior, and indeed, thought habit along the process.
The result that emanate from such process is often self-control, self-reliance and self-determination that ultimately stimulate individuals in the sustenance of the necessary drive in taking a positive decision towards achieving the set objective at any given time. Because lack of any self-discipline and self-confidence, often have the consequence of negative disposition and distressing thought with lack of enthusiasm and ultimately, an adverse effect of low self-esteem, productivity and advancement. Therefore, we need to submit and admit that self-discipline cannot be transferred and instilled overnight, but through a gradual process. And here comes the intention which is the aspiration of a goal and objective. And Neisser (1976) would argue that cognition of knowing and understanding can only occur in the context of a purposeful activity of which intention is the purpose of activity through which the vision is created.
But it must be a process of a learning culture explicated and epitomized by those who may care in the very promotion of a strong and viable relationship and commitment in the advancement and development of a society they cherish and also belong. We gain the knowledge of these things through the context of experiences and understanding; such that through the context we are able to weave together the various relationships of our experiences. And of cause, of which the greater the understanding of the subject matter, the more we are able to weave our past experiences ,put in context into a new knowledge in absorbing , doing, reflecting and interacting with others.
Culture › The Silent Conspiracy Of Distractions by philoedu(op):
[left]The story of the silent conspiracy of distraction is but a story of a unique existence palpable but not daunting. But only just revealing and not indicting one but of a courageous life lived by a man of a unique personality in unique circumstances. Unfortunately, it is of the confused generation of our time. It is a story of an exciting man in a hostile environment that eventual left him speechless with the confused reality of the perennial question of to be or not be – which is the question. It is of a man coming from afar, who had a taste of what it means to laugh and shear tears at the same time.

He did it not for the fun of it but for a deeper reason inexplicable in itself due to the circumstances that provoked such experience in unusual circumstances. He is not a closed minded individual but an open minded, who know the importance and value of the benefit of experience. With such awareness, it has become his principle of influence that emanated from consistency and commitment in its wildest sense in his own modi operandi. He is but of what one might called the Amazonian, a realist with unequal affinity with deep sense of specifics not in general but of a conscience of the power of extraordinary analysis of the trends of things. He may not be a perfect man but he doesn’t lack that inclination to view reality in their face values with optimism and disposition.

He has always come to view life as a journeying rightly or wrongly, through which everyone is saddle with the responsibility to struggle to carry his/her own cross, without falling by the way side for whatever reason. But as it plays out, he ran into what might be called the -Charlie brown Character, unique in its own affinities, which as he tries assisting along the way with all his good intention, simply was kicked in the ash. During which the moment he could manage to get back to his senses, it was rather too late and was already taken off guide. In such moment of his good intention, he has either fallen flat in the process with an endless staggering without stability or he has falling completely laying with his stomach flattened on the ground. Such that if you ever had such a falling experience you need not be told of what it means to look like it, with stomach flat on the ground. Don’t get this narrative misunderstood, Charlie brown may not have expected the level of which his friend went through and still going through after their encounter.
With such good intention always on the side of anyone irrespective of what is taking place, Charley Brown come to view his action as legitimate and normal in an environment unknown to him of the winner takes all.
Therefore, being held responsible for what is happening to him is completely out of the question. After all, his friend had come a long way before they meet. In fact everyone does it, except that it does varies in degree and circumstances. By the way who is Charlie Brown According to the World Encyclopedia of Comic, he is an epitome of the great American unsuccessful story, in that he fails virtually in every thing he does. Therefore, along the line, he become a lovable loser, a child possessed by endless determination and hope and with unequal disposition of empathy toward anything and everything but who ultimately come to be dominated by his insecurity and a permanent case of bad luck. Often, being taken advantage of by everyone who comes his way. The same is true, he often come to be taking undue advantage of at any convenient moment and victimized by other characters. Needless to add, that getting blamed when something goes wrong at any given time, even when he is not at fault but just for the sake of the right moment to victimized him due to his nature. The like of him is rarely incomprehensible and unexpected in time of uncertain confusing environment in his generation.

But in an environment where material object is placed in high value more than an individuals, as the only sole determinant of life, even if it has to be of a shot duration, of which Charlie brown will always be there. He is a representative of everyone going through a hard time, and in particular, when one feel like nothing is ever going right for them. But he has come to cultivate an attitude of defiance of hardship to always refuses to give up, no matter how daunting such situation maybe. The same is true, that he remain an epitome of forward looking character, such that in the face of depression, he was still very much optimistic and hopeful that it must one day come to pass. In fact, he has come to realize and awareness of the spirit of “always being blamed for whatever happens”. To this fact, he feels there is no one like him, of which everyone tends to mock and laugh at him, sometimes openly, except though, that he had come to devise an attitude of waving it all with the back of his mind, as it all look funny.
The spirit of a lovable loser, in its materialistic inclination, in its scale of value, always tends to place human in low level circumstances hence, since such encounter, things have never come to be the same again . This bitter experience Amazonian had with the like of Charlie brown along the way, tends to left him desolate and indifference to virtually everything around him, but not without some future lesson learnt. Meanwhile, for Amazonian due to this devastation of the so call encounter with such character, he seems to come to perceive himself as a victim of circumstances , although, no one ever made mention of it to his face, but the fact remain, there are compelling evidence to the contrary, although it could happen to anyone.
Culture › Rising Above Irrationality And Instinct. by philoedu(op):
The so call multifarious aspects of the world is intertwined, that is not possible to stand apart and claim not to shares in its fabric in bad times and in good times. We are in just what one may call a period of return to the sources, no matter what is happening.. Often, we tend to wrap our body and mind, heart and soul around our presence called the almighty self. And we feel as individuals, which we are at a relative level. But in the absolute, we remain a part of the whole we cannot do without, each uniquely tailored to play its specific part in the arena of our individual life journey.

Of cause, we come a long way to a point that we must do the needful to reflect on our disconnectedness, due to our distraction, in order to counter the movement tending to the polarization that may lead to greater conflict in not too distance future . Therefore, no chance must be given to support the questioning of the long-held truth and much-loved certainties in the face of today's mighty challenge that tends to stare humanity in the face as never before. Make no mistake, this may be political upheaval, climate change, or personal trials, but life no doubt, is banging upon our consciousness on daily bases, in an attempt to awaken us to rise to the reality of our time. The process, no doubt, may look daunting and challenging and may take time, but it nevertheless demand an urgent response towards strive to honor each step to a birth of the deepest transformation shaped by the highest truth without feeling indifference.

In this same process, we may, make mistakes, to get our hands very dirty and in the dirtiness of the human realm, with wild emotions and crazy actions. But certainly, we may need to remove our mask of deception until we recognize ourselves, let alone anyone else knowing who we are. We are in a period of what I choose to call the “concept deconstruction” that requires everyone of us to begin to question what works and what does not work, almost like what takes place in the age of reason in the 16th century which demands authenticity in our evolutionary journey. This of cause, may offend in its honesty and passion, as it challenge the religious, political and social status quo of our time. The same is true, that we answer to no one, except our creator when it comes to the truth because it is its own arbiter as it leaves nothing to stand on its awake. The time has come for the most candid honesty to muster first and foremost with ourselves to move to the inward direction as to see where we have got it all wrong.

This transformation and freedom to carry out such assignment, did ask for enough courage to transcend any abstraction in adherence to the noble demand of the scripture, if a man is to have any value in the scheme of things. The meaningful life, or value, that does not come to depend on material possession only in other to survive, but taken cognizance of the sacredness of human life. The same is true, that in the avoidance, of misplacement of concept. As it were, to defy the inability to strike the balance between what, is ontological and logical and indeed, what is spiritual and material. It must be emphasized, though, that technological progress, does not force anyone to advance, instead, it is but the very requirement of organizing a society, because, any devaluation of human life in the process comes to destroy the very foundation of the basic established order of progress. History, in all intent and purpose, cannot be ignored, and cannot cease to exist, hence, such phrase- ‘ ethical standard and tradition, remain a word to guard and a word of honor, that must be preserved because it is an embodiment of both reconciling and condemning element, in what is wrong in any system.
The same is true, that the family as an institution, and the source of any society, must not only be preserved and promoted but also must be defended from any possible misrepresentation of its true value, hence, the need for a shift value to a new level of value system of concept reconstruction. Because what is injurious to the family is also injurious to any society as an institution. Echo, the very need not to lose sight of the tremendous effort demanded from everyone in combating any form of denigration of the value and dignity of the human person of which we all are stake holder or have a shear.
This must start from the very small privilege working companions that compete on daily bases to the very law that sometimes keep an entire group marginalized and often brutalized in the mix of opulence lifestyle in the nearby quarter. What looks like a period of societal paroxysms,(meaning a sudden expression of uncontrolled emotion), definitely demands that we must be prepared to come to terms with our individual reality and the reality of our time without fear or favors for the sake of posterity of doing away with any form of injustices and oppression.
The same is true, for the sake of equity and justice, without an attitude of dominance and disputes, in an atmosphere where no one is prepared to take the first step.
It is a known fact, that no scientific research has ever brought directly an expected great discovery, rather any discovery or solution often comes to be found where it is least expected. As it were, human problems often tend to resist some theoretical solution, which often can be found when everyone is willing to shear and no longer want to oppress one another. But it is imperative not to shear away from any sense of self-criticism and lack of fair play through introspection, of which any meaningful change can always take place. If there is to be any such meaningful charge, our inner world and the outer world must come to match, coupled with an insight into the transformation of life in our evolutionary effort for our collective survival.

This write-up is for those who may desire exclusively to achieve and grow individually without the concept of disconnection, both material and spiritual well-being of life. The kind of individual who is not content to simply exist for the sake of existence. But with the sense of what one may choose to call destiny whether they are aware or not, and indeed, of the inner awareness of eschatological fulfillment of which every human being is destined, despite the pain and suffering. Such that one is meant to be a part of that solution and not the problems, of which the task-oriented individual must strive and know there is a job to be done. The same is true that just living without developing the inner resource of the heart is but the highest form of selfishness and self-deceit. Because the lack of insight is but the neglect of the heart that gives attention to other fellow human beings.

Culture › The Silent Conspiracy. by philoedu(op):
-Manzoni has come a long way and has come to the realization that, one of his old friends is but a toxic individual who misunderstood his good intention. And this gives him the idea to be more conscious most of the time of any identical individual with low level value system and with similar inclinations.

In what looks like imaginative perception, he fined himself left in a state of decomposition and speechless with an uneasy attitude behind many of the stony reserve attitude manifested toward him. But it was with the apprehension of the trends, due to incomprehension that has overtime surrounded him. However, with time, he has come to learn to embrace such attitude of indifferent since he cannot force any change and the situations but to let them run their cause of action as they deem fit .

In spite of his many setbacks, by virtue of the subtle moral affinities, he was still capable of judging correctly any complex situation. Although, the necessity was not always pleasurable for a man of his status, this he was well aware. But to save himself of the almighty worry and unfounded anxiety, he was well aware he has to flow with the trend of things as to spare himself of more mental torture.

Holding a book and merely staring in some pages without reading , has come to assist him to regain the lost sentiment of isolation necessary for any reflection and continuity of his thought, even in the mix of insufficient means and in what looks like a precarious situation. In his character, there is always certain contentment, a sort of an inborn religious placidity. It is the uncommon trait united with some level of sensitivity favorable to the quiet and habitual observation of an imperfectly animate existence of a man who have seen it all.

In the process of recovery, he still need some level of power to convey to the consciousness of the abstract and elementary impression of silence, and this he was well aware of, not lose to sight . These influences, no doubt, tend to aid the dignity of human nature and at the same time tend to act as a tranquilizer, to say the least. Whenever he encounter his fate, he looks with keen and resolute profile straight in the face, as he strive to utter some of the utterances as to fall into the central truth of human feeling.
Of cause, in sincerity with concentrated expressions of any recoiling flesh, he knew self-control was the ultimate companion at any given time. However, overtime, he learnt that every language posses its own fastidious genius that can expand with purity of its elements that must change along with the changing thoughts of the living being. His sensitivity and caution tends to pay off, as he strives to avoid over emphasis of certain emotional instinct as opposed to his intellectual background. Such background that enable him to capture most of the time the very moment of experience without descending to what he come to call the frozen formalities of every day struggle that may not be peculiar to himself.

In spite of his predicament after his encounter with the personality of Charlie Brawn, he still manage to carry on with him, in spite of that impassion contemplation of the supreme example of intuition’s ability to reach the perception of that principle of unity beyond the attainable of rational analysis alone.” Be happy” he would cry out in his moment of frustration and discouragement with what looks like a patient in labor of which for him and certainly was a condition for a greater success and forward looking a character.

One of his many set back seems to be that he was never an orator of torrential eloquences like others who have the ability to sweep every one along, even in a rushing noise and foam of great enthusiasm most people of today are so used to as an act of conformism. The same is true, that he has come to dread a high level of much argument, although, not because any level in itself of such argument would shake his faith, except, that the mere tendency to deviate from any conceptual element of objective nature of fact, often disconcert him painfully in his thought at any given time.
Such thought that one might have assumed have cohabited for so long in his mental solitude, more barren than a waterless desert; such that no living voice have ever combated and commented, talk less of an approver. In spite of his numerous setbacks, he discovered that some people still lack the basic of the spirit of imagination essential to man, that contributed to Charlie’s attitude as to make him blind by what might be called the sense of idiotic vanity that left him in state of indifference to the very awareness of his level of atrocity committed against him.

The result of such attitude is often the extreme confusion between cause and effect, manifested like most of the distinguished propagandist with impulsive bomb thrower and indeed, with an assumed affiliate in a click where in reality nothing of such exist. But the near obvious is often but the act of being possessed by an endless determination of Charlie's character in the continues mockery with no basic explication of such exasperation like a hungry man.

The basic explanation according to Manzoni, all emanated from a derivative of an exasperation that has its root from what he termed social revenge. But of cause , at something different from the ordinary passion of humanity. But it is not very far from psychological differences found among individual’s impressions where a phenomenon of distention of a hasty judgment of every event tends to take place and as order of the day. Whatever the outcome, the shadow of their evil gift have come to clog to them like the smell of a deadly drug in an old recipient of poison emptied now, useless, ready to be thrown upon a heap of rubbish of things that have served their time.

Aware of this conspiracy to distract him, he strives for prudent, convinced he could not count on any one’s emotional display of pity to the many of the contrasting attitude always of which is always of something of the ordinary like the bomb outrage. Such that for it to have any effluence and effect at all, must extend beyond the intention of a vengeance and purely destructive beyond the faintest suspicious of any object. In such peculiar process of reality, he never lose focus for any chance to become what might be called the darling of providential force vibrating beyond humanity’s frequency of consciousness.

With this attitude, he distance himself in order to make his proximity to rise above the spirit of Charlie brown , a key that will open up another dimension of what he regard as a windfall. Because he view himself in the light energy of an acrobat, balancing across space and time. Although, they makes him curls his muscle into an obedient fierce a creature, at a point, but realized, he has the primitive instinct, ready to attack any mentality and that readiness, to act of seizing any opportunity at any given moment to do the right thing.
Culture › Character And Justics. by philoedu(op): 3:24pm On Jul 03, 2022
The character can be defined as mental and moral quality distinctive to an individual, in its ideal manifestation of personality in the making. And this means that it can be made according to individual experiences, tastes, and trials.

Such that an evil character, consistently and consciously may strive toward an evil ideal and occasionally fail. But through temptation may come to yield to a good impulse to commit a noble act, completely at variance with an ideal in mind, of which, this no doubt, may only come to prove that within the breast of every individual, is that spark of divinity.
The same is true that this come to prove that because the soul of man is essentially good, often with the tendency not desire, to emulate what is constructive, noble and good in nature. It is the human will that is saddled with the responsibility to influence the natural tendency, an essential and fundamental incentive of the human soul. As it were, the character becomes the conscious code of thought, practice, emotion, and the act of which the school of personality established and through which the trait of personality tends to emulate as an ideal. In this perspective, any evil character that result from evil ideal, no doubt, tends to indicate a lack of understanding and development in the process.

In this perspective, any evil character that results from an evil ideal, no doubt, tends to indicate a lack of understanding and development in the process. Therefore, any lack of understanding of character, required to be pitied rather than censored, directed rather than confinement, assisted rather than a hindrance.
Justice, as is known, as the ultimate end of the law is considered to be justice, although, this is only true in its ideal application and enforcement of the law.
The same is true, that with compelling evidence, the contrary is the case. However, in theory, it should apply, but in practice, many come to be injured by the cause of this very law they tends to depend upon justices.
As the saying goes, the law is without conscience. And it operate upon it's theory of perfection and consequently, even when it is apparent at times that an injustice will be done to a litigant, it does not often deviate from its routing system. It will be observed that the law is often enacted and executed by man, thus, it is constantly subject to human weakness in character. Therefore, as a result of this defect of which man is liable, is the question of whether it is worthwhile, to resort to arbitration than to appeal to the law

It is not appropriate at all, morally and deficient.
Christianity Etc › The Enigma Of Self -redefination by philoedu(op):
The development of science and technology cannot actually free humanity from the obligation to ask the ultimate existential questions. And it spur us to face the most painful and sometimes, decisive struggles of those of the heart and the question of moral conscience. The contemporary man tends to have the greater need for the inner-self as well as out-self in order to know God and himself.
It is true that with such knowledge, we can nurture the sense of dignity and respect. It is through this knowledge we can also know the true meaning of the value of life and work in tandem with the sense of true freedom, justices and peace. One of the Christian truths, is not about ideology but in the recognition that without any iota of doubt, that it is the changing of the social and political reality in favor of man that cannot be confined to any rigid structure.
Therefore, the need for a deep reflection for a constant re-affirmation of the transcendental that encompass the dignity of the human person. In the evolutionary salvific journey of man, there has been numerous example of the advocate of a genuine emancipation of humanity. The emancipation that inspire, not a passive acceptance, but in the authentic and firm resolve to work effectively in the way of truth in order to free man once and for all from any form of oppressive and violence forces that is raging so assiduously and the shackle of poverty of our time.
Through such resolve, we can return humanity to his dignified platform of existence, through which he exercises his full right in the scheme of things. Although, there is the gospel prosperity talks of material abundance as a sign of divine favor of which, though, what they seems to be silent about is the very purpose of this material abundance in the life of man.
Because, at this point, it has becomes a moral issue in particular, when there are bunch of haggard and hungry folks of the like of Lazarus hanging around us. Of course, it must be said, that this has become a moral deficiency on the contemporary setting of which majority become deprived in the mix of plenty. The same is true that it is all about the issue of self-centered attitude and distraction from the very issue of the heart and value of which the existence of man is accountable.

But there must be a shift of value system that asks for a balance and moderation without drifting either extreme in the quest to positively regulate our perspective of the current system. It must be the shift of value to balance our material well-being with that of the spiritual well-being and indeed, the self and others without recourse to the extreme as the current extremist nature of things seems to depict.

It must be observed, however, that in the 18th century, there arose a movement of the intellectual thought in Europe. And their sole aim was a rejection of the external authority as they enthrone what come to be regarded as personal subjective judgment. Although, they were known to be called enlightenment and was celebrated in their intellectual individualism. But their main objective was also to seek to banish any idea of living by repository of wisdom beyond one’s own intellect.
This post-Christian era also known as the age of reason or secular culture, was with the view that any rational being must be able to work out the truth about life for themselves, which seems to rain supreme at the time. However, it was not without an element of misconception, and if you like, a misplaced concept, because it take for granted all matter of basic belief, i.e. the strong feeling that exist or true in every individuals. The outcome of this was an outlook that appears to control the opinion makers and information disseminators of the time. The consequences of this were a sort of anti-Christian, a type of mindset that seems to move against the very value and dignity of man, peace and justices, and indeed, the interest of the collective wellbeing.

The reality is that, for any given society to truly have a human face and take its rightful place in the scheme of things and look to the future with confidence, it is necessary and imperative for an orientation of man from within, which implies healing of wounds and achieving a genuine purification of the heart. Such heart, contaminated by negative past memories of mutual misunderstanding and trauma to create a space for the act of forgiveness.
The same is true that there is no darkness of error that can totally act as a replacement of man in the scheme of things in the light of his creator. In the depth of man’s heart remain the yearning for the absolute truth and a thirst to attain the full knowledge and understanding of his creator. But the reality is that he must be disposed to the grandeur and the sublime thought of the Divine mind to fill him with the inspiration and comprehension of his real place in the scheme of things. And of cause, which also, implies a genuine relationship and love with our fellow being.
But unfortunately, this genuine relationship and love tend to remain in the radar of the greatest deceptions in the contemporary setting. A sort of an illusion that one get everything one wants, if you like, happiness without God. The same is true, that it is also an illusion that we can find authentic freedom by excluding moral truth and personal responsibility. But responsibility is not always a choice we make, rather, it is an inevitable act that happens before we ever consider any such possibility. In the past decade we must have witness an ever increasing emphasis on the need to develop a new ways of doing thing, if you like, in what may be termed a leaning culture. Which could be the only way to sustain a competitive advantage over a long term, in an increasing complex and turbulent environment of which the contemporary setting have no an immediate answer. The learning culture is characterized by a continues learning from experience and history, and indeed, by learning to learn. The basic assumption on the belief of a learning culture that can be described along two dimensions which are that of flexibility with regard to external environment and commitment for change. And the flexibility with regard to environment, often act as a facilitator and ease, in uncertain situation where there are tolerance of ambiguity and functional orientation. But as regard to commitment to change, it has to do with the sharing of responsibilities and information and support with a sense of participation toward a change of mindset-for solidarity.
The shared basic assumption in the contrast of flexibility with regard to external environment is but the rigidity in the status quo. While the basic assumption that contrast commitment is but a parochial orientation. But the integration of these concepts did allow for the development of a model of preparedness for a genuine transformation. But the learning culture becomes the model that reflects the basic assumption of flexibility and commitment with a disposition and wiliness to decisively deal with any form of transformation without procrastination in the face of any evolving reality.
Culture › The Eyes Of The Heart. by philoedu(op):
This is a known fact, that practical life tends to encompass fitness, skills that include cleaning and caring for our environment which is a series of fine motor skills .
Of cause, it demand that we live within our means, work hard as we strive to be happy, living a qualitative and not quantitative life as well as facing up to our weakness and realities head on. The same is true, that practical life requires that we view any daily difficulty with the "eyes of the heart" together with our physical eyes.

Because, much of the valuable experience is gained through this optic as we endeavour to gaze at these daily problems and difficulties with the eyes of the heart.
As often said, life is just like a school for our advancement, as a school of life which is not without the necessary materials to graduate at the end. As it were, it requires that we live up to it all with the necessary courage without fear as the physical and inner self partnered to the graduation time variously.
Further more, it demand that we must be prepared for the test and training, that take us through step by step to what is higher and better as we gain the necessary strength to grasp what one might call the supra-earthly affinity for our development, but not without in equivalent to the spiritual school.
This school of life is not without a curriculum and a method in place, that demand our daily attention necessary, without which it could always come to impact negatively from individual to the collective advancement.

When come to view closely, the one best in application of the method of practical school of life seems to point to that of the inductive method, that move from basic particular to that of the general trends of things, of the like from childhood- primary school to adulthood- university. Although, there is another method called " deductive " different from "inductive". In fact, deductive method, is that which move from - the universal or general trend of things to that of particulars or basic of things. This method, according to some school of thought, is mostly useful in the scientific development. Therefore, it must be argued that, " inductive" no doubt, tends to be more sustainable towards confronting our daily realities. Because, it is closely related to doing the very basic things of life, without chewing more than what one can swallow.
Therefore, in learning from. the most basic lesson to what is most important and sometimes very difficult to understand as we advance in life. It is important to know that, trying our best at every single moment implies making up for what have been neglected on the spiritual maturity front, through which we must be familiar with the knowledge of creation.
The same is true, the inductive method tends to adequately foster the learning method, although, not without its necessary difficulties but not also without positive and sufficient impact. And this has tends to uplift man along the spiritual and material horizons on the higher level of consciousness as related to our fellow human beings in our understanding, as history has come to demonstrate over time.
The inductive method; the particular and basic things in the spiritual understanding must make us to think good and noble with loving thought towards others, as the spiritual awareness unfolds like a rose that spread openly in general terms.
The German philosopher, is credited to have advice that man must live dangerously, if man is to know life. But this dangerous living come to mean that one must conduct oneself in such manner as to violate some natural law of right living, but such living, no doubt, is not without its tolls, in the later part of life, be it individual or collective. , C.J.E
Culture › In search of the Concept of Political Pragmatism. by philoedu(op):
When practical life is thought about or pragmatic is spoke about, what comes to mind is but " the political pragmatism". As it were, "political pragmatism" tends to refer to that kind of willingness to carry out whatever work to reach any desired goal.

Although, this may not clearly say politically, what goal this could be; of speculative as it were, politically. But let face it, confronting the current political complexity of economic, and name it, of various kind of political insecurity, is no more a controversial issue and urgent goal and no one can deny its importance, either.
Furthermore, dogmatism is a concept that relates to matters of fact or practical affairs, often to the exclusion of intellectual or artistic matters; practical as opposed to idealistic, based on practical considerations.
In philosophy, a "pragmatic approach" is but an attitude or policy, and the same is true, an approach to evaluate theories or beliefs in terms of success or failure of their practical applications.

Therefore, it is about adoption to life through daily evaluation to putting things in order, be it, economic, or policies that are not working politically, in both individual and collective lives. Therefore, being practical tends to refer to that which concerned the actual doing of something, manifested in actions.
The same is true, that pragmatic politics must and indeed, deals with political agendas sensibly and realistically in a way that is based on practical problems depending on the environment variously rather than romancing the theoretical or speculative side of things.
Consideration and a deep feeling of concern must be given to matters of facts of what could or should be, of the like of consequences and result, in anything that concerns humanity.

As a participant of history, there is an urgent need to radicate love, tolerance, and kindness for the sake of posterity, as a bearer of witness to speak in our favor when the times comes.
Practical life demands that we learn to employ in the production and exchange of goods and services for the interest of all and in particular for those in need, for the maintenance of our life and the life of others, who may come to depend on us.
History has a way of informing us, that whether we like it or not there are souls whose cries demand our attentions of our evolving wisdom to dissipate the shadow of the conflicting forces of whatever brand they may appear, that as it may, that tends to overwhelm us. This is to strengthen the will that needed some token affection and sympathetic response.
Of cause, such sympathetic response that may take the form of a coordinated effort that may appear little. But when keely viewed in the optic of introspection, we realized they are quite enough for us to take of and adjust to, in the increase of the vibrational measure set up in our personality in it's evolutionary journey of life.
It must be observed that we have been created not to relent in our practical life, and according to St. Paul, we must work to be able to eat, and to this fact, men of the past and present have not failed to demonstrate their power of accomplishment, in economic and literature, and indeed, in various other fields to advance social progress in the interest of all.
Therefore, political pragmatism, demands not speculation, but a coordinated effort to face up to the current contemporary challenges in practical terms, dealing decisively with the evil of oppression of various kinds without any misconception of the terms, no matter what.

Culture › The Unspoken Human Events. by philoedu(op):
Nearly every day of our lives, we come to experience all kinds of various palpable event and circumstances. In most cases, some of these events tend to fall within our control and some other times it does not, and we are left helpless and think, we could not move forward.
Although, so it seems, that we can do nothing to avoid many of the adverse negative conditions through what one might call the application of intelligent living. The intelligent living that fall within our space, that enable us to explore the various methods we deem compatible to our way of life and to our immediate control, without been carried away by any external influence.
In the absence of such what looks like intelligent living, we are often unable to trace certain actions on our part which must have been responsible for certain sudden events, when it does take place.
This sudden events, often times, is what we did least expected to happen with the result that we do not always have immediate control, talk less of the solutions.
The same is true, that there are certain situation that left us often in a helpless and complicated state of mind, with the resulting and devastating effect of conflicting pains, that often seems unending.
But such state of mind, can be avoided or approached with reflection and attitude of some level of detachment from purely personal issues as to be able to bear the accelerated vibration for it's gradual dissipation.
It must be bone mind, that as a living being, the vicissitudes, l mean the unpleasant change of circumstances or fortune and some form of trivialities, or lack of seriousness, no doubt, always to be expected and avoided in the journey of life.
In the light of this perspective, those of us who have persistently fought our way along this hard phase of the journey, know well enough, the painful misgiving, the harassing doubt and indeed, the solitary questions of the heart which do beset us.
Make no mistake, in spite of any misgiving, there are but very few individuals, who would accept and testify on emerging from such shadow that all was well with them. And a case in point is the like of what our dear beloved society has been experiencing and continue to experience, both by individuals and in the collective sphere.

However, we must bear in mind, that it does not really matter so much, on the level anyway, the difficulty, if only we are able to comprehend the way, the facts, and the life experiences it comes to offers, because there are no other way we could expect to acquire any such strength for further development,
The history of any individual or society is always there to guide and it demands adjustment and discipline which must be carried steadily into the psychic realm of our faculties of the mind, not without determination to put things in the right perspective.
The same is true, this is to enable us to bring with it the constant problem of acceptance and adjustment to the known factors of the mind as a human being.
Culture › The Psychology Of Cross Culture On Productivity. by philoedu(op):
The purpose of this write up is to see how culture affects the level of productivity in an environment where people are increasingly working across culture. And working across culture, we are often not truly taking cognizant of the underlying differences that may exist along the line, which though, are unintentionally sabotaging the system.
It is true that often, we are griped with the assumption that working in the same organization or speaking the same language, means we have the same objective and goals. It must be observed that we may have the objective and goals but the path to get to such end often take many hazardous twist and turns.
The result of the twist and turns could appear in the form of increase level of frustration, stress with lack of motivation and productivity, not without understanding and misconception that ultimately often could impact negatively in the system. The same is true that, it could split a professional relationship or partnership as it left the other in oblivion, or incognito, as to make one feel perplexed as to what had happened along the line. It is true, that often, there are individual who will not change their core values and behavioral pattern at any given time.
But striving to build a cultural awareness skill, will no doubt, decrease any likely issues that may damage any business relationship. It will, however, instead, pave way for a systematic smoother transition, when working across culture. There are some effective method, not only that may increase the productivity level but also may enhance some level of communication skill in any given cross –cultural setting.
The under listed key point must be fervently adhere to with kin observations.
 In any verbal and non-verbal language, clarification must always be sorted out, because, often, what one may think, an honest way to bring up an issue may turn out to be, a misconception, due to the direct approach, that could create distrust and strain for any future interaction.
 Therefore, being aware of how one present any subject is vital as one will definitely have to watch for the body –language. It is also true that one must not assume to understand gestures, because what may be acceptable in one culture may be an insult in another culture. Therefore, one must strive to use verbal expression to explicate the non-verbal gesture in use.

 There must be taken into consideration - the avoidance of taking others mistake as “personal” one . When working with others in any project, remember that every culture has its own method of application. Therefore, what one may perceive as a grave error due to the different style of work, may not be, hence, one must be prepared to ask for an explanation to understand the reason behind every single gesture as to learn from other culture.

 Accept that you do not understand what you do not know. We often want everyone to believe that we are competent and highly skillful in all area of the job. But contrary, to this assertion, there always remain some slight differences, in both practical knowledge of understanding and differences in meaning due to cultural differences. Therefore, in any behavior that may appear inappropriate, time must be taken to diagnose the action instead of a hasty assumption based on personal own cultural filters that may be lacking in the substance.

 There must be the Increase awareness of your own, formed idea or opinion before enough information or experience.-(preconception). In this context, one must bear mind, that we all carry with us a cultural baggage, which prescribed our behavior, value and how we perceive others and the world around us. The same is true, with this cultural baggage it allow us to categorize people and situations.

 Therefore, the more we are aware of this individual bias, the easier it may probably assist us to accept and understand our differences. It is true also, that this may ultimately help to break up what might be called the “stereotype” and false generalization about people and their culture, and indeed ultimately be what come to bind us due to this understanding.
Culture › Self -adjustment. by philoedu(op):
Speaking of self-adjustment means adjustment of behavior and emotion, no matter how hash any situation might seem to be, although, not without determination and a goal in mind.
Any well-adjusted individual must be able to control his or her behavior and emotion, as to deal with various other problems that may present themselves at any given unexpected time.
Furthermore, in any conflicting situation, adjustment is always required to seek common ground between the conflicting group in their various opinion and theoretical assumptions but not without taking them seriously in their attitude as individuals.
Because l have always emphasized, that any satisfactory development requires that individual relationships with one another need to be considered as a kind of that which must allow for an assertion of one's uniqueness.
However, to be able to adjust to any kind of situation demand some sort of maturity that requires that we know who we are in mind, our beliefs, and our convictions.
This is because, the more we realize who we are and our weakness, through such understanding, the less bigoted shall we generally becomes.
Although, under varying circumstances, maturity can always be recognized through tolerance and often with the ability to doubt one's ideal and that of others. Therefore, self-realization can often manifest through the exercises of individual potential combined with the attainment of maturity in the cultivation of relationships.
As it were, this is often subjectively attended to with a sense of being able to fully adapt to any situation, instead of attempting to direct the course as one's own development in assessment.
The problem of self-adjustment is often not taken seriously, even though it has a great deal of telling effect on every individual in our evolutionary journey.
The same is true that a bunch of individuals do not seem to understand that it is the very same basic problem that confronts everyone. Although, with different levels of perception in degree and modification in level, that come to depend on our behavior and our attitude to life, and indeed, individual reality as it presents itself which demands adjustment.
Life as a paradox demands that any attempt to justify this in the eyes of those who do not share the same aspiration and beliefs cannot in any way understand such paradox.
The result will be to make our life appear the more hopelessly contradictory, hence, we must accept our state of being as we develop a complete understanding of what our adjustment is, as distinctive as an individual.
This is because the self-within is ever rich with the products of many lives of struggle and development, of which it requires freedom to express itself as to begin to declare itself to project into the conscious field. It must be observed, that through this conscious field, a bunch of individuals has often come to surprise everyone with their inventions and ideas through the power and faculty of the past. This power and faculty of the past, in complete freedom, mingled with the tone of personal aspirations and when interpreted rightly, often blend and harmonize with the present.
