This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Don’t try to win by crashing into someone charging at you; you’ll only hurt each other and win half the battle or less. Instead, if you sidestep and gently trip your opponent’s legs by hitching your foot, their own momentum will spell doom for them. Fighting isn’t about strength; rather, strength pertains to direction, not intensity. Righteousness comes from the art of effort, the wisdom of reading directions, and grasping situations. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
