Just my thoughts #0547

In the animation “Finding Nemo,” the main character, Nemo, asks questions about the sea and where he lives. “What is the sea?” Hearing this, the dolphin puts Nemo on its back and jumps over the water to reveal her world. When you are in the sea, you do not know what the sea is. However, when you rise above the surface, you can see that the sea is a place where water gathers at a low level, and above it are air and land. She eventually realizes that she is also on the ground with water. If you want to understand the essence and grasp the reality, you must step out of the place you belong to for a while. Further development and reform can be expected. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0354

Maturity doesn’t equate to being old and worn out. When I was younger, I shouted my words at the world, hoping it would recognize them. As I’ve matured, I’ve started to listen to what the world has to say to me instead of merely expressing my own thoughts. The world’s voice, which I hadn’t noticed before, becomes oddly clear to my ears. As I grow older, I find that I can’t hear the world’s voice. I don’t hear it because I enthusiastically spoke out when I was younger, and I don’t hear it again in my old age due to a hearing impairment. Life teaches us to perceive authentic sounds from outside rather than from within, and this awareness lasts only a brief moment. That’s the mystery of life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
