Influence of Time: Time has the power to change the values of this world and people’s minds. The passage of time—past, present, and future—is only significant to humans, and if there is an all-powerful God, it likely holds no meaning for Him. Time accomplishes many things, and God rules the world through it. As time progresses, people change, and the world changes as well. When time flows, the world transforms, and it is natural for humans to adapt to these changes. My attitude toward time influences my values, which in turn shape my actions and perspectives. My values do not influence time; rather, time influences me. Observation is not just seeing the world but also seeing myself. It is a wise attitude to judge both myself, who is affected by changing times, and the world, which is already in flux. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Books focused on “healing” often dominate the overall bestseller charts in South Korea, indicating strong reader interest in comfort. There are two primary strategies for commercializing healing concepts. The first strategy aims to alleviate guilt while fostering a sense of responsibility. The second approach aims to reinforce guilt but provides comfort after encouraging personal accountability. This methodology is also applicable in areas such as religion and counseling psychology. At the core of the healing industry is the concept of “privatizing pain.” Essentially, it means: “It’s not your fault (reducing guilt), but you have the power to change it (reinforcing responsibility).” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

A scab forms when the skin is injured. This is to protect the wound from contagion while healing. If a scab is still attached when the wound is healed perfectly, it is no longer a protective mechanism and is an alien substance, not skin. It is the same with the wounded mind. Everyone has a defense mechanism to protect their wounds. Even if your wound is completely healed, if you adhere to your defense mechanism, it would be a foreign object. It's not a part of yours, instead, that should be treated like a tumor. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
