Immunity is a battle between ‘me’ and ‘not me.’ Our brains and bodies are designed to be entirely egocentric. Genes are self-interested because they ensure their own survival. If I don’t exist, then there is no one else and no love. After all, loving others is an extension of loving myself. If there ’ s a distortion or immaturity in self-love, even when loving others, it can leave a scar, and that wound leaves a scar on me again. The victim consciousness forgets this mechanism. Just as immunity is vital for physical health, it’s equally crucial in mental health or religion — the immune system against self-love must remain strong. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

People say that to succeed, you have to break the frame. But how do you break the frame when you’ve never been locked inside one? Instead, words and actions should be confined within the framework of ‘consistency’ so that the beginning and the end match, earning trust from others. A person grows only when small, essential parts of daily routines are kept within the frame of ‘repetition (routine)’ and the rest are prioritized accordingly. Confining yourself to a specific frame means earning trust through consistency, being recognized for dignity, and developing a routine. This is the process of proving your existence in society. Only after being confined within a frame can you break the big one, elevating life to a new level. That is truly breaking the frame. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In fact, more often than not, a multitude of thoughts leads to a choice disorder, primarily because you don’t know yourself well. Self-needs are easily recognized, yet many individuals lack awareness of their desires. Desire is often intricately wrapped in morality, making it more likely that you remain oblivious to it. If you don’t understand what you want, you’ll hesitate to make a choice. This results in the worry that your choices won’t satisfy desires you ’ re unaware of. Having a healthy mind entails honestly aligning your choices and decisions with your desires. Nevertheless, morality, dignity, and concern for others often hinder honest choices. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
