Be an adult with a child's heart.

Be an adult with a child's heart.



People study a lot in order to grow and accumulate experiences as time goes by. As knowledge accumulates and wisdom increases, one becomes an adult.



However, in order to become a true adult, there is one heart that must be possessed in order not to fall into the paradox of knowledge and experience. It is the heart of a child.​


​


"A great person is a person who has not lost the heart of a child."


- Mencius


​


It is said that the heart of a child is in a state of keeping the good nature received from heaven.


It is a pure and pure heart that is not stained by greed or profit, and its good nature is preserved.


​


A child's heart is humble. He doesn't boast of his knowledge or status, and he doesn't look down on others by it.


I do not compare or criticize others, nor do I use people for my own benefit.


It is the heart of a child that can treat people as genuine people like this.


​


If you exalt yourself just because you have reached your biological age, have high status or wealth, or have worldly honor, you cannot be considered a true adult.


 


A true adult, that is, a person, is a person with the heart of a child who is not swayed by life experiences and years.

why?

 why? There are cases where the answer was correct in the past, but now it is incorrect. Some creeds that were respected in the past are now foolish obsessions. ​ The beliefs that dominated an era as gold and jade In a different era, he said that he was reduced to being treated as a badass. This is the proof that 'society is a living being'. ​ It is human beings who created living things. In other words, people have changed, not the times. ​ Don't ask anyone, 'Who are you?' Asking such a question is equivalent to saying that it should always remain the same. ​ If you really want to ask, ask 'Why?' ​ Why do you want to do it? Why do you want to walk that road? Why do you want to be that way? Why do you live?

Real change is possible when we seek the things that do not change.

 Real change is possible when we seek the things that do not change. People climb mountains and go to the sea to cool their heads and to refresh themselves. Looking at the blue mountains and the sea, my mind is at ease, and I find comfort and peace in my life. The reason is simple. This is because there is a truth that we must keep in our hearts in things that never change and remain there forever. Everyone becomes humble in the face of the truth. That humility will be the ultimate wisdom we must acquire. There is no such thing as an answer in life. Only the act of seeking humility leads us to the truth. What is happiness? It's like reading, not because of homework or obligations, but because you love the book. You have to let go of the desire you are holding on to to get the true desire. Think of death to get a life. Applying these same paradoxes throughout your life can lead to good improvements and progress. ​ Life longs for change. It is because of the anxiety that if we do not...

Philosophy, getting lost and wandering. Michel Foucault

 Philosophy, getting lost and wandering. Michel Foucault ​ ​ Michel Foucault, a French philosopher who captured the important features of modern power in the image of a shepherd on a search for 'one stray sheep'. The way modern power individualizes the population By totalizing, that is, by carefully caring for and taming individuals one by one, they claim to have increased their power as a whole. ​ It does not stop at mere oppression, confinement, or exclusion. Active management, nurturing, and caring have become new technologies of power. He called the modern ruling power 'pastoral power' by comparing it to the image of a shepherd looking for a lost sheep. ​ ​ 'Philosophy' means... For Foucault, it was synonymous with 'getting lost and wandering. The curiosity that allows one to move away from oneself, not the curiosity to make one's own knowledge that must be known. That was the motivation for Foucault's work. ​ It guarantees only the acquisition o...
