Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Courage and brazenness , which ordinary humans often lack, are essential assets for beggars . Courage —especially the kind that others cannot easily afford —holds significant value. This value stems from the essence of courage itself rather than its rarity. We need brazenness when we owe others for a time, yet we must act for ourselves, even at the cost of feeling remorse . Thus, intangible assets like courage and brazenness can replace tangible assets such as cash. Let’s not despair over our lack of material possessions. This does not imply that we should be beggars ; rather, it suggests that there are many models in the world to follow . - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Some people consider “what I have” to be “property,” like “money.” In other words, “All of Mine” = [All my things] - [All I have inherited] - [All I have received as gifts] - [All of the others] - [All I have stolen]. By the way, while there is wealth among [mine], temperament and ability are also crucial resources, in addition to properties such as talent, networks, sincerity, perseverance, attitude, intimacy, determination, courage, wit, and wisdom. Escaping crises and fostering development must begin with “All of Mine.” The success and progress made by [All of the others] is an illusion. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Sin starts with fear and ends with courage. It then repeats with ease and profit. When sins are repeated, people become desensitized to the harm caused to others and even employ convincing logic that justifies the sinner’s morals. Unfortunately, humans are pretty inventive when it comes to sin. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

If we don’t have something, we often think we don’t have it at all. However, even when we possess nothing, we fail to check if someone around us has something, and we simply give up. If someone nearby lacks it, we give up immediately. We struggle to identify the next person around us, don’t inquire about introductions, and we lack the courage to reach out. In difficult situations, we see only the fact that we have nothing substantial and can’t contemplate anything beyond that. No, we don’t even attempt to change our mindset. People falter not because they lack resources, but because they don’t think or have the courage. Even though we should live with wisdom instead of just hard work, we often labor tirelessly but without insight. This leads to more downfall; it feels like choosing to perish. Doing our best doesn’t equate to merely working hard. We strive for achievement yet work diligently without being wise. Consequently, we find ourselves falling again. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
