Quality of Life

   Quality of life (QOL) is often discussed to proclaim the quality of mundane opportunity for the physically challenged people such as the blind and/or deaf. It tells us that those who don't inherently see or hear will nonetheless live their life to the same (or even more) extent as most of the others do. However, this idea sheds light upon a more general question of how to think about your origins and encounters: that is, the question of your own interpretation about circumstantial perception and behavior.

   Parents spending money for their kid's academic motivation, for example, would probably run against a later glitch, hearing, "It won't pay for God's sake!" When he or she grew up in the college, a pretension of belief that you pay for academic achievement to deserve it is in turn brandished. The thinking runs gradually dry and eventually halts just at the moment of paying tuition. One explanation of this is that the non-creative consumptive society is more and more degrading our quality of life with any type of stereotypical thinkings and behaviors. 

   Stereotypical behavior refers to the issue of your own cognition and behavior. The cognitive predicament, as in the case of Helen Keller (1880-1968), does not in the least confine human stereotypically-interpretive (and social) behavior. On the other hand, our stereotypical behavior directly connects to monetary value. What should have elsewhere combined with diversity and creativity ends up with claustrophobic recess. Environment makes us both sharp and dull. Psychologists point out that some everyday intersections of mind and behavior are shaped as mundane habits--so called contingency--which happens only by chance out of limitless possibilities in the substantial world. This picture seems extremely similar to the traditional Japanese wisdom of "Go-en." 

   Most parents or adults would regard that young people's behaviors, including their kids', are basically free at all so long as they have avoided bothering others. In an interesting twist, however, they do so quite often and well and we adults should admit our tie upon their achievements, friendships, and even romances. For good or ill, what we call Go-en or contingency operates, beyond our consciousness and anxiety, on the encounter between mind and behavior. In this respect, Japanese tradition is quite reasonable when people thought that Go-en is contingent.

   We should be modest while referring ability and disability, or in the first place, good and bad, to quality of life. Instead, talking about how to perceive and interpret your encounter will be manyfold profitable in real society.  ao

Why do children cry?

There is a unique thought about why children cry. It posits the effect of the actions you take to stop them from crying.    A child is crying. You never walk away. No sooner would it turn challenging when you physically interact with them. Some people will talk to them out of pity. Others pick them up, thinking that stopping them from crying is the priority anyway. Either way, the child will eventually halt crying.    What's more interesting is that even if the cause of the crying is unknown, there is always some form of interaction between you (the other one) and the child in the process. In essence, it stands to reason that for humans, the chance to stop crying through interaction with others is far greater than crying alone. Once the assumption that a child crying and the interaction with others are ‘connected’ is established, the child will then cry to seek that ‘connection’ with others, regardless of the cause of the crying. There is no reason, yet the interact...
KARA'S TEAR REVIEWED Kara was an anomalistic artificial intelligence which emitted a desire to survive. Yet, in the real world (2019), nothing is evidenced whether the machines' feeling, as well as animals, is authentic. Having seen this exquisite short film (2012) again, my interest is not in ‘AIs’ that will sooner or later threat us but in the human who will no wonder do an impact exactly when the Wreck Havoc occurs.       Men tend to think AIs with IC tips are a threat (like humanoids) because they will become wiser than us in the near future. Contrary, the more realistic tipping point might be in our brain (e.g.,    right temporoparietal junction, rTPJ): the human social skill, shortly, our fallacious compassion for AIs. How many people will soon become more compassionate being against the increasing ‘AIs,’ as of that in the censor in this short film?    The truth is, Japan has already witnessed many such cases in elderly welfa...
Is Communication So Predominant As You Think M ind and idea are fundamental to our life. The very common idea that people communicate with each other to exchange their mind seems hackery and around every corner. However, is the idea you hold the same as in your mind? Is it valid for you to suppose that language is "your" property, which you almost exclusively need when you convey all in your mind? I say this because we share some exceptional cases for the prevailing myth above. Truly, your idea occasionally falls your mind. Or your mind abruptly turns down immediate ideas you have cherished so far. Are you really able to convey meaning through the language you use? Our mind endorses and supports our daily life, whilst people like to talk about communication just because it helps us to communicate, exchange ideas, and socialise! Organic mind wondering, or poetic language is obsolete. People just leave much of the mind behind and hurry off seeking something to propagate,...
