Influence of Time: Time has the power to change the values of this world and people’s minds. The passage of time—past, present, and future—is only significant to humans, and if there is an all-powerful God, it likely holds no meaning for Him. Time accomplishes many things, and God rules the world through it. As time progresses, people change, and the world changes as well. When time flows, the world transforms, and it is natural for humans to adapt to these changes. My attitude toward time influences my values, which in turn shape my actions and perspectives. My values do not influence time; rather, time influences me. Observation is not just seeing the world but also seeing myself. It is a wise attitude to judge both myself, who is affected by changing times, and the world, which is already in flux. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Toms Shoes is synonymous with justification marketing through charity. People first praised the idea that if you buy one pair of shoes, you donate another pair to developing countries for free. However, soon after, the donation was criticized by findings from an NGO that indicated it took away jobs for youth in the area. Toms Shoes eventually faced a bankruptcy crisis and decided to hand over management to its creditors. Are there any “good things” in the world? In this hyper-connected society that humanity has never experienced, it is difficult to prevent the deterioration of good intentions or control their effects as intended. Therefore, we must not forget that even if there is something good, it is never something to be proud of. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
