The ice does not sink; it floats on the water. Water and ice, which are the same substance in different states, can be regarded as fundamentally the same material; yet, they have entirely different effects in practical applications. Many things in the world are the same yet different. Just as a cat likes mice but doesn’t love them, likes and loves are distinct concepts. We often overlook that these subtle differences can lead to significant results. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Everybody lies. "I don't lie" is a lie. There are five reasons for lying: 1) originally dishonest, 2) embarrassed, 3) ignorant, 4) scared, 5) to defend their interests. However, except for 1), on the contrary, we are also being honest for those reasons. It is not a dichotomy; it is a matter of judgment in the context. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
