- 社會與文化
We are taught many things like how to be engineers, doctors, architects, etc. No one is taught how to be a good husband or wife. No one is taught that ordinary life is actually good. No one is taught that relationships take a lot of work. No one is taught that every event in your life no matter how hurtful is designed to shape you into a better person and it is how you react to a situation that will determine what impact and influence it will actually have in your life. We spend years pursuing educational degrees and knowledge but we as a society lack the real knowledge of life.

Alan Watts - The Game Of Hide and Seek
There is the central self—you can call it God, you can call it anything you like—and it’s all of us. It’s playing all the parts of all beings whatsoever everywhere and anywhere. And it’s playing the game of hide-and-seek with itself. It gets lost, it gets involved in the farthest out adventures, but in the end it always wakes up and comes back to itself. And when you’re ready to wake up, you’re going to wake up. And if you’re not ready you’re going to stay pretending that you’re just “poor little me.”
Conscious attention is a designed function of the brain to scan the environment, as radar does, and note for any troublemaking changes. But if you identify yourself with your troubleshooter, then naturally you define yourself as being in a perpetual state of anxiety. -
What If We Never Find True Love?
We have a need to be loved and rightly so. A significant number of us have gotten so wrong many times in our pursuit of that special someone to live life and be happy with. Some of us have been hurt so many times that perhaps we've asked ourselves the question "What if I never find true love?" Will I die alone? In this episode, Alain De Botton takes us on a journey in exploring the question and concern of finding true love.
