Positive Thinking

                                                                                    Honor   ''For some, their dignity is their humanity. For others, their dignity is their identity manifestation. ''One character said this in Amharic  film. She was severely criticized for her clothing in the film, that is why she said that. By the way, clothing is a reflection of a person's identity, but not their identity. It does not make them higher or lower to be human. There is nothing to prevent a person from being human, even if mentally ill person who wears dirty clothes.  Except perhaps adding the adjective crazy before the noun "person." And the adjective has no power to erase the true identity or body of a person. An adjective either degrades or magnify. It cannot change a...

                                                Generational transition   When change is radical, there is no generational transition. To believe that change is radical, is to believe that yesterday was completely bad, which means there was nothing good in it. It is like saying that life is black or white, but not gray. But the reality of life does not show this. Yesterday cannot be completely bad or completely good. It cannot be completely right or wrong. The history of yesterday is the history of people.

If a person does a lot of bad things, he will be remembered by the next generation because of his bad deeds. But that does not mean that he has no good deeds. Because of the amount of bad dee...

                                                              Conviction   Conviction  is a faith which is  free from doubt. Faith without doubt is the result of meekness. Without doubt, there is no reasoning. There is no thinking at all. Not everything needs to be thought, with reasoning. But accepting everything without thinking is difficult. Believing  something simple and obvious with meekness does not cause much harm. But accepting something difficult and complex with meekness is bound to cost a price.  Faith that is born of meekness is weak. It locks the heart so that it is not open to new perspectives. Faith that locks the heart makes it extreme. Faith that opens the heart brings comfort. Faith that locks the heart is not true faith, but superstition. Superstition is based not on knowledge but on hab...

                                        Forgetting worry    There are  many reasons for human stress . Hunger , thirst, bankruptcy, loss of job , high cost of living, conflict with others and many other reasons can be mentioned . We can classify the causes of stress as natural and man-made. They can be classified as internal and external factors .  It is observed when a person himself responds to the stress that he has caused himself and when he fails to respond . However , unless it is prevented the stress that nature causes , once it has occurred, it  should be accepted rather than trying to reverse it . For example, it is unable to   prevent the rain from falling ,  floods from occurring, while distorting the weather.   It is unable to prevent the snow melting from the Himalayas, while polluting the environment .  It will be difficult ...
