What if you have a second chance?

 20260928

What if you have a second chance?

" A second chance " means regret.

We all have something wrong sometimes.   To regret is no good.   It is better to look forward for a next chance.   If you are well prepared,  if you have a good mind,  you might have a better choice.

The chance is given.   But the choice is yours.

What are you going to do if the same chance is given to you?

Will you be better prepared?

But I think I'll be the same.

If I were 11,   I think my fate will be the same. My mother will be taken away at the same time,  and I will be the same street boy.....

Will history be the same?

Will the war of humans be the same?

Do we have a better choice if we were to live again?

Can we be smarter?

It all matters within the mind.

If we have a dirty mind, we will do ugly things

If we have a clean mind, we'll do beautiful things.

The world will be better because of our clean mind.

薛西弗斯，有何意思？
.
.
世界上所有的哲學思想，歸結到最後，總會來
到這一個地方：究竟人類是否需要努力，而這種努力，
又是有沒有效果的。

薛西弗斯是一個感染力極強的希臘故事。故事中
的巨人，被天神處罰，要扛一塊巨石上山。但每次當
巨人扺達山巔，那塊巨石，就會迅雷不及掩耳地滾回
山下。而巨人，只有默默承受，重新再開始。

如果因此而判斷，希臘哲學是消極的，那就是錯
了。故事只是說，巨人並沒有放棄。他只是一再重新
自己。而故事是沒有結尾的。誰也不可能知道，巨人
的努力，有甚麼結果。但其中的意義，極度鮮明：就
算是失敗一萬次，他也會重新再來。他是不死的。故
事的永恆意義，就在此處。

現實生活中，一個人，努力只可能有一次。那首
歌的歌聲：Could we start again? 只有莊子的回
答最清楚。薪盡火傳。火是永恆的。(2007.1.9)

What is the most mysterious part of our life?

20260927

What is the most mysterious part of our life?

We are living in a place totally unknown to us.

It was said that the most strange part is that we are finite, but we are living  in a place of infinite.

What is the implication?

There is a hidden meaning here.

The hidden  meaning is that:  it is futile if we try to know the infinite.

The problem is, should we try to understand the universe?

Or should we stay where we were?

Rulers from the Han dynasty of China cannot understand the importance here.

The finite is the infinite.

Nothing is really finite.

Human beings and human civilizations are also infinite.

We need to learn and we need to make a progress.

We need to survive in this infinite universe.

We need to know:

有限就是無限

Finite is infinite.

What is the meaning of a face to face sexual intercourse?

 

20260926

What is the meaning of a face to face sexual  intercourse?

Human sexual  intercourse is face to face.  Other species are not like this.   They are having intercourse face to back always.  

Did you see how dogs intercourse?

A male will crawl on the females back.   And then all of a sudden,  they would become back to back.   I don't know how can they turn so quickly? I never saw it.   You will see they were standing with 8 feet on the gound for a long time, and they were back to back.

It seems their sexual organs are locked up inside. They cannot  separate  for a long time.

 I saw a big dog was  mating with a small dog years ago.  Maybe there were some noise or something that scared the the big dog.   He started to run. pulling the small dog behind, yelling in pain but they cannot separate each other.

And the question is why.

Why humans have to mate face to face?

A speculation is that it is also a design from the Creator of human beings.

The Creator wanted us to make love face to face.

Animals will not have love when they are face to back.

Fish never need to face anyone. They just lay eggs on the sea floor and the male would come to shit on the eggs.

But we are face to face.

We need to face each otheor by that time.

Emotional communication comes first.

Contacts comes next.

It could be true in many occasions.

The question is:

Did the creator want us to love?

Aren't we designed this way?

What if I am stupid?

 20260925

What if I am stupid?

I hope this is not a question for me myself when I am dying.

I will never wish to have such a conclusion for my life with such a question.

It would be extremely bad if I have to admit I am stupid and I was stupid in my whole life.

This is the least thing I wish to do.

Do I have a doubt myself?

I dare not say it.

But I need to promise myself and I wish to promise my parents who are all in heaven now that I  will do things I will not regret.

Yes, with no regret is the highest and lowest requirement for one's life.

It is a blessing for anyone who can know he is doing something he will not regret.

Not anyone knows that he is blessed at all.

Not everyone knows what is a regret.

You are blessed if you have such a sense.

Always remind yourself:

Have I done all my necessary work?

Have I done all the work I needed to do?

Don't miss anything.  You will regret it.

What is the major cause of stupidity?

 20260924

What is the major cause of stupidity?

I have checked with the AI about stupidity.   The AI told me stupidity is not related to medical or science causes.

And I think the AI is right.

Stupidity is not medical.   It means it is not related to slow learning or inborn features.

Many highly educated people are stupid.

They are smart and they are highly educated and they are learned.   They have all sorts of resources to their decisions.

But still, they made wrong decisions always.

It is not science. It is history.

How can you deal with a stupid person?

Can you talk with them and educate them or even give them money just to hope that they will not be stupid enough to do bad things?

No, you cannot educate them, but you can give them a lesson.

I hope they will not be that stupid if they have that lesson.

Is language really unavoidable?

 20260923

Is language really unavoidable?  

For individual communication, it seems language is useful, but not unavoidable.  

Sometimes you can use some unknown radio waves from your eyes to tell your thoughts.   

But the question is:   will our evolution be totally different if we do not have languages?

Are there any other brain waves that can connect people and produce thoughts?

People in love will tell you positive answers.

They will tell you they can "sense" what other people thinks.

Maybe the sense ability  is different among people.

Some people can sense more than others.

They are always winners.

But this is never a topic in textbooks.  It is important but no teacher will teach you.

It is useful in many levels.  It is useful in diplomatic communication and politics.

But people can only learn it from their daily experiences.

Sometimes an eye contact can induce war.   And sometimes an eye contact can gain trust and friendship.......

It is because:

The unknown waves from the eyes is only a reflection from the inner feelings in your heart.

You have the heart and you have the eyes.  It is as simple as that.

Sometimes you can talk with each other without using languages.

It is a very good feeling.

It is for only a privileged few.

They can use it in love games as well as war games.

What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

20260923

 What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

The prospect is for a hundred or even thousands of years.  What will a future China looks like?

Two major forces are shaping China:

One is the material trend from the West,  the other is the traditional Chinese spirit which is weakening day by day.

I think the Chinese will become bilingual in a short time.  It meant the Chinese can handle two languages simultaneously.  It won't be long.  And it will be better than most other Western countries.  Because a second language in the Western countries are usually weak  and not useful.

This Chinese bilingual trend is coming from a force. The force is the material side of the human mind.

And this is the major threat to the Chinese prospect.

Chinese way of thinking is another major trend of human culture:

At the very beginning it seems to be only some acupuncture or some Chinese way of painting etc., but it is more than that.

It is not like the Western way of material limitaton:  The Chinese way of living has a meaning:   it is not only a tool. 

Human culture is just like a double river.  The Eastern side of the river represents something else.   It's complicated and it is simple.  It is not only a matter and mind  division.  The river is another way of human living.   It is the inner relations of humans. It is more than a term of  love.  "Love" is an external teaching for a modern commercial life.  It is not a natural human relation.   The Chinese bonding of life is from an inner "urge" which is like the strong force from a tiny seed to grow.    It is a huge force to maintain a whole  forest.

What is the prospect of Chinese culture?

It depends.

It depends the hard work of the future generation of a Chinese mind.

How different are the "two kingdoms" situation?

 20260922

How different are the "two kingdoms" situation?

Three kingdoms were an ideal situation for the lovers of history.

However, the three kingdoms situation is gone.

Will the two kingdoms situation easier to handle?

Will the two kingdoms situation more interesting?

At first there were many kingdoms.

And the kingdoms were gone one by one until only two are remaining.

Can they be smart enough to maintain the balance for a longer time?

Maybe to maintain a balance of two is more easier than a balance of three?

It is difficult to say.

For a multiple balance, you can always have more choices.

If there were only two actors on stage,  the play is much more difficult to handle.

But there will be some optimistic issues here.

Humans were living in a situation of two more than three.

We have two eyes, two ears. two hands and two brains,  but we have only one mouth.

It is always a perfect design of living beings.

Maybe we are still premature to think in such a way.

From the aspect of civilizations,  don't you know you are on the left side or the right side?

It needs to cooperate with the other side always....

On condition that they can make all sides happy.

Human civilization is a complex of multiple entities.

We are more than two, we are many.

The "two kingdoms" situation is only a joke,  a wrong  interpretation about  human civilization.

And some people would argue that one kingdom is better.
