Life misses you
I feel like when one positions one’s perception of things within life on a large-scale level (such as global politics and activism), then life, its meaning and innocence begins to suffer. One gets so caught up in the tides of fluctuating thinking and incriminating principles that one begins to forget and lose sight of what…

Movie review: Elemental
I watched the movie Elemental by Disney, and was very excited because I thought they were going to creatively explore and experiment with the elements, just like they have done with other things in earlier movies. I have loved Disney movies since I was little, so as a grownup I hoped to find a moment…

Morality is happiness
I feel like the happiest person in the world. (Though of course, I am also weighed down by many things too. But one can be both things at once; the sweet spot of life’s congruency.) This is because I have a secret that I live by. Namely: I render what is due to others. I…

Assimilation
I recently wrote about assimilation. I would like to clarify something. Assimilation doesn’t mean that different cultures, traditions and norms can never be practiced within a society that prefers a specific form of these things. It also doesn’t mean that we cannot have healthy debate about which aspects of cultures are good or bad, cross-culturally.…

National integrity
Diversity and multiculturalism presumes that all cultures are good or equally good, when they aren’t, depending on which frame of reference one starts from. Some cultures or cultural aspects are a matter of taste and personal (in this case national) inclinations, while others are bad on a moral, universal or human level for example. It’s…

Never!
I will never let someone take the innocence of my mind from me. And I will never let it be impregnated by superficial and double standard ideals and politics! I will never let it be tainted by problematic solutions, just because they’re in reach. And I will never let it be clawed by those on…

A pioneer in constructiveness
When a problem occurs, be the one who wants to solve it! Because that’s how the problem gets solved! That’s how bridges are built, and compassion grown! If one takes offense, and seeks but to retaliate, then the problem will only get worse, and no one will be helped. Raise your own flag of constructiveness…

Cultivating life
People who are inherently against the existence of classes wants, in practice and final result, people to stay mediocre in relation to who they can become (not in relation to others) all their lives. They want to hold people back from achieving their full potential and from cultivating life. There are people who do bad…

The mother of spiritual rivalry
I respect your guidance from God, and I ask you to respect mine To me, the mother of spiritual rivalry is polytheism in guidance. Meaning, to demand that others must give someone other than God a share in the formers’ guidance from God. Or likewise to demand that they conform, adopt, accept or adjust to…

Healthy debate
Can we please, everyone, start listening to and responding to the actual point of an argument, instead of resorting to personal attacks or attacks on the structure of the argument? Because those things don’t say anything about whether the actual point someone proposes is true or not. What matters is whether a statement is true…

The gardener and the warrior
War is a wretchedness. A misfortune. A nuisance. An infliction. Not the standard, which the statement “I’d rather be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war” infers. It is not those that are unable to defend themselves that are to be blamed for the harms caused by war. It is those…
