Pos-pandemic society

Adaptation and future
At the beginning of 2020, no one would have dreamed of how we live today. Right now we cannot enjoy most of our hobbies, we must meet as few people as possible and we are obliged to cover our nose and mouth with masks, we look forward to our turn in vaccination and we...
The fool

Destiny is inexorable

Uma coisa de cada vez
Já escrevi dezenas de vezes nesse blog: a vida é sofrimento. Não é uma questão de pessimismo ou otimismo, é uma questão de realidade. O caminho natural da vida é a senescência do corpo e da mente. Se nada for feito em contrário, esse efeito se dá em 40 dias por falta...
One thing

Fear, potency, and reaction
While I was sitting in my office chair, I learned never to believe in cowardice. I listened to life reports for 17 years, every hour, a new account of another life. Never in those 17 years have I met a coward or a weak person in my psychology office. This made it...
Gratitude about life
One of the unmissable experiences for life is gratitude. She is really well into fashion, has space in TED, in churches and even who would say, in psychology! It does not derive from the cheap view of the “half-full or half-empty glass,” but from the...
Why is it so hard to change?
Necessity is the mother of creation. It is not known today that necessity is the mother of power and constructive capacity. The distance between having and wanting is so great, and what makes it so great is precisely the absence of need that does not always accompany...
Rejection and affective neediness
Feeling different is a lifelong thing. Feeling rejected is likely to happen throughout life. Feeling alone is something that can happen throughout life. But feeling permanently different, rejected, and alone is a sign that something in your set of beliefs about...

To live: complexities and successes!!
Life is a very dop process and living is very cool !!! Often, to live is inexplicable, but it is always very dop and very cool !!! Life is not a watertight process. Although it has a beginning, middle, and end, life is a continuous, fluid and unpredictable process (we...Jumping out of the window
Jumping out of the window, facing the pavement in front of the building, is more than a desperate act. In fact, it is much more than a call for help. In fact, it is much, much more than being alone, helpless, unloved or anything that counts. Think about a fire in your...Management of life by fear

Love is a trap. In the way we live it in today, it was invented by social networks. Fast, intense, highly addictive and fleeting, it seems like a crack doze, as soon as its intense effect passes, the emptiness and necessity returns. But it was not always that way....Cognitive conceptualization

Peace is not a bargaining chip. So, it does not have its coming guaranteed after the war, and after the death, no one knows. But in contemporary times, peace can be easily understood as the opposite of affliction. The negative mental restlessness that comes with two...Living in the ocean of distortions

The fight that has lasted for almost 2 millennia without reaching a conclusion of which of the two should be taken as the most reliable source for the understanding...Consciousness and transformation
