During my life I had no lack of those who talked about good and evil. Similar does not mean anything. People do what is in their best interest. Not caring about the victims. Evil is it when you take what you want to quench your thirst, even if it will bring more suffering? What some call evil, I call appropriate response to the cruel and unjust world.

Inheritance tax is one form of taxation that can be used to compensate for the unfair distribution of wealth, and I think it would cost to fix this system permanently. The primary goal of a socialist tax policy is the redistribution of wealth. You take money from the "haves" and pay for their education and social services - thus giving them "poor". In this case, you have the advantage, since taking them not any specific people. You don't take away money from the children and heirs, and only take a fee for their hope that they will ever be able to dispose of these assets. It can be painful for one to two weeks after the announcement of the will and payment of debt, but in any case it is less brutal than the cuts in capital during the life of the person.

Our mission, if it actually exists, will inevitably change in the course of life inasmuch as we absorb new skills, knowledge, experience.

One of the really sneaky things I've done in my life - did not go to the funeral of his father. I don't want to quote a psychologist, but it's true: for this reason I could not accept his death and deal with her. Because I acted like a coward, I should suffer from it. Since then I had obsessive thoughts about death and loss. I hope this will change, but this has been going on for a long time.

In order not to go mad from loneliness, I decided to conduct a more orderly way of life. With me still was my watch - pre-war "omega", which along with a fountain pen - my only riches - to-shore as the Apple of his eye. By this clock, which always neatly wound up, I made myself a study plan. Throughout the day, I lay without movement to save the tiny reserve of strength which still remained. Just about noon I reached out and took lying next to the crackers and a Cup of water. This was meager diet. From morning to this "lunch" I restored in the memory the beat of tact for all the works that ever played.

Main function of System 1 - track and update your personal model of the world, describing that it is normal. The model is based on associations that link ideas of circumstances, events, actions, and consequences, with some regularity appear together either simultaneously or one after the other within a relatively short time. According to the formation and strengthening of these relations a set of related ideas shapes the structure of events in your life and determines your interpretation of the present and your expectations for the future.

But what does it all matter? Who can argue that your ancestors lived here before mine? Only matters who you are. Water think about it: whose pedigree is longer than the other? Aren't we all descended from Adam?
But society looks at it differently.
- So it looks at this all wrong! Name attach such importance! But all have names! Because Poldark own the property, and Boscawen own the property, and Dunstanville, and Trevanion, and others, Karna, Smiths, Carters, Martina and Infamy... And even painter, one day we all descended from a common ancestor. Someone was lucky or he was smarter, or had the ability to get up above the rest, and continued to climb up over the centuries, but that he didn't deserve more praise or honor.

Fortunately, mental work is not always unpleasant; people often have made significant efforts over long periods of time without using will power. Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi did more than others for the study of such natural attention, and proposed the name "flow" has firmly entered the language. Experienced the feeling of flow describe it as "a state of deep, relaxed concentration, where one loses the sense of time itself, and their own problems," and the joy experienced in this state are so compelling that Csikszentmihalyi has called it an "optimal experience." A variety of classes - from painting to racing - produces a state of flow, and for some authors even writing a book becomes an optimal experience. The well stream separates the two forms of effort: concentration on the task and systematic control of attention. Riding a motorcycle at 150 miles per hour or a game of chess, of course, require a lot of effort. However, to hold the attention of these all-consuming tasks in a state of flux self-control is not needed, so to perform them frees up additional resources.

By themselves, the search for meaning is not new. News is that almost nothing in modern European culture may not be the answer for them. Nothing says: "this is a heritage of thought, culture, philosophy and religions that gave people food for thousands of years and is able to give something to you." Instead, at best a voice: "Find your meaning where you desire." In the worst case, you can hear nihilistic principle: "Your existence is meaningless in a meaningless universe." Any person who believes a similar principle, just are not able to achieve anything. Societies in which there is such a picture, the same is not capable of any achievements. Nihilism, of course, you can understand when it is present in some people, but when it becomes a public credo, it is fatal.

Apparently, in every crisis, a turning point in the lives of the people there such as "Small People", all attitudes which are the OPPOSITE of the worldview of other people. For which all that has grown organically over the centuries, all the roots of the spiritual life of the nation, its religion, traditional political system, moral principles, way of life - all of it hostile, it seems funny and dirty prejudice requiring uncompromising eradication. Being cut off completely from the spiritual connection with the people, he looks at him only as the material and its treatment as a purely TECHNICAL problem, so its solution is not restricted by any moral standards, compassion or pity.

In our conversations usually the conversation was about the position of Russia. Here I understood the main plagues of our country: jaconelli people, serfdom, the mistreatment of soldiers in service for almost 25 years was hard labor; widespread extortion, robbery and, finally, a clear disrespect to the man at all.

He did not recognize that the use of the money you have to pay, and he never borrowed from bankers. He did not recognize that people must get money, if they have not earned their useful work, so for sixteen years he invested all the profits of the company in new lands, buildings, machinery and other instruments of production cars. For Henry it was good.

I think back to my conversation with Helen on the steps of the Schermerhorn that each culture has its own spirit, its own flavor. Her words that night pop up in my head at least once a day. And do I say anything to anyone is that within eight years every day to disturb him?
