| Question: Do you ever think that there is more or less nothing new under the sky? Posted: 02 Apr 2015 03:23 AM PDT (1) The phrase "more or less" has no useful function in this sentence. There cannot be more nothing or less nothing. Correctly phrased, your question should simply be "Do you ever think that there is nothing new under the sky?" (2) There are plenty of new things every minute of the day and night, including new births and new deaths of people, animals, plants and even stars. It would be more correct to suggest that there is nothing FUNDAMENTALLY new. (3) Everything in existence is in continuous motion, both cosmically and sub-atomically. The universe is in continuous flux, so there cannot be two moments in time that are exactly the same. If nothing else, everything has a new spatial position in every moment you choose to stop and check the physical arrangement of the universe. . (4) If you are implying "new ideas" or "new knowledge" instead of "new things", then you should be specific about that. Philosophy, above all else, demands precision in meaning so try to be more precise with what you ask about. I do not believe that there are any fundamentally new ideas because every idea is born from of a previous idea, but individually and as a species we frequently come by new knowledge and new interpretations of knowledge. |
| Question: I wanna start a peaceful revolution...? Posted: 01 Apr 2015 10:30 PM PDT You say you want a revolution Well, you know We all want to change the world You tell me that it's evolution Well, you know We all want to change the world But when you talk about destruction Don't you know it's gonna be alright You say you got a real solution But if you want money for people with minds that hate Don't you know it's gonna be alright You say you'll change the constitution But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao Don't you know know it's gonna be alright |
| Question: Do you agree that we should treasure all of our memories? Posted: 01 Apr 2015 09:06 PM PDT We gain wisdom through experiences. Brain with its enormous capacity stores volumes of memories right from child hood. Incidents and experiences are case specific. They may not remain relevant or applicable in other circumstances. It is for this reason the brain after gaining wisdom, retains the memories of major events and allows the junk memories to fade away. Memories of great personalities written as autobiographies help others gain wisdom. |
| Question: Why is "belonging" important? Posted: 01 Apr 2015 08:30 PM PDT Quote: Sense of belonging helps people suffering depression By Colleen Newvine Reg Williams, professor of nursing and psychiatry and co-author of a paper in the current issue of the Archives of Psychiatric Nursing, says people who feel connected to the world around them feel better. "You can have lots of social support, but unless you feel you fit in, it doesn't help," Williams says. He teamed up for the research with graduate student Chanokruthai Choenarom and long-time collaborator Bonnie Hagerty, associate professor of nursing. The researchers studied 90 people, and separated them into two groups—one diagnosed with depressive symptoms and the other without. They looked at perceived stress, sense of belonging, social support and spousal support for one year, taking data every three months. Notably, spousal support did not help with depression. In fact, it sometimes had a negative effect. "The things a spouse thinks might be supportive aren't necessarily helpful," Williams says. For example, some spouses might think they're giving cheerful pep talks, but they might be received as nagging or minimizing their mate's suffering. The higher that subjects rated their social support and a sense of belonging, the lower they rated their depressive symptoms. Williams says there are implications for this research both for clinicians and for those suffering from depression. "When I first see a patient who is suffering depression, I ask them to reach out to friends, family members and co-workers and get re-connected to their support network," he says. "It really works." "When a person is depressed, the natural tendency is to want to withdraw from the very people they need. That's what's so wicked about this illness," he adds. The depressed person might have a support network of concerned people who love him or her, but the depression will make the person unlikely to return phone calls or go out to social events. Eventually, those in the support network might feel rejected and stop trying. Hagerty and Williams recently received funding from the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Foundation to do a two-year study of adherence to antidepressant medications when prescribed by primary care physicians. Williams says one of the problems with treating depression is that when the patient begins to feel better, the person might stop treatment. To keep depression at bay, the patient needs to continue treatment, as quitting will cause a backslide. Unquote: |
| Question: Why is it that in the middle of difficulty people say comes opportunity? Posted: 01 Apr 2015 06:12 PM PDT I have no idea. You'd think opportunity could come at the beginning. Maybe they think they have to be secured into the difficulty before they can see the opportunity. Makes no sense to me....but ok. Then again....how do you get out of a difficulty? The end of it, is like another doorway into the next opportune easy or difficult thing. |
