Just my thoughts #0480

This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0407

A wise person advises us not to hold grudges against anyone in our lives. This is because if I foster a grudge, even if it’s physically disconnected from each other, that grudge will eventually interfere with my life. Blessings and grudges also operate beyond my time. It’s just problematic because it doesn’t align with the timing I desire, and our lives are intertwined with an inevitable fate that transcends time in this way. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There are two kinds of knowledge in the world. The knowledge I can explain, and understand I know but cannot explain. To explain it to others, you must see the essence of that knowledge. The knowledge that others cannot understand means that the person describing it does not know its nature. So the secretary becomes wise. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
