humanity

For better or for worse, relationships reveal the core of the human condition.

Would the world be better off with a higher basic income?
Sadly, today we can't even start dreaming before we wake up. There is an old saying that dreams often turn into nightmares. Utopia is a breeding ground for conflict, violence and even genocide. Utopia eventually becomes dystopia; In fact, utopia is dystopia. "Human progress is a myth." There is also an old saying that goes like this. Instead, we've created a medieval paradise.

A man who likes to preach
I still don't know why Sally and I bothered to go to that party on a forested slope outside Aspen. The people at the party were old and surprisingly boring, so much so that we, in our 40s, were the "young ladies" of the event. The house is nice -- if you like a Ralph Laurentian log cabin -- a sturdy, luxurious one 9,000 feet above sea level, complete with elk antlers, Kilim floral blankets and a wood-burning stove. Just as we were about to leave, the host said, "No, just wait a minute. We can talk." He was a strong man who made a lot of money.

HUMANITY IS THE GATEWAY TO WORLD’S PEACE
Humanity is a feeling that keeps a person connected to a person. If this feeling is lost, then the society, the nation, the empire will be destroyed. Humanity means a human must be respected without any distinction of religion, nationality, colour and country. In the eyes of humanity, every person in the world is respectable because he is a human being.

Beauty
There were a sensitivity and a beauty to her that have nothing to do with looks. She was one to be listened to, whose words were so easy to take to heart.

A crazy decision
Air Force Second Lieutenant Robert Vadan is flying at 12,000 meters somewhere in Texas. It's his first double manoeuvring exercise off the ground. He's excited. He was not flying the fighter alone, with flight instructor Capt. Joseph Carnell monitoring the flight from a nearby chair. So far, so good.

How can I be attractive/hotter?
How can I be attractive/hotter? • Your goals are for you alone. Your achievements are only for you. There is nothing more unappealing than talking about your own success stories.

Letter from Ukraine: the language of war
The conflict in Ukraine is shaping up to be one of the bloodiest in recent memory. With soldiers on both sides using deadly language, it’s no wonder that the language of war has taken on a life of its own. In this letter, we explore how the language of war shapes our understanding of the conflict and the human cost that it’s exacting. We also look at how the language of war is changing over time and how it’s affecting people on all sides of the conflict. Read on to learn more about how this war is impacting the people who are fighting it, and why the language of war has taken on such a dangerous meaning in today’s world.

To give up smoking
It's been a while since I quit smoking: 272 days. I thought I'd get used to it by now, that the hunger and thirst had subsided, that I no longer felt restless and like a part of a limb had been amputated. It's not. The truth is, there's not a moment when I don't feel empty, when I don't feel as if I've been ripped out of my whole self. I'm just used to it now, that's all. Rather, I have accepted the painful reality.

Best rice sticks in the world
When I was a primary school student, my family of six lived in a long, narrow room the size of six tatami MATS in a period drama.

Master of art
????? Caio covered the paper with figures and charts, and the broken, two-inch blue pencil tip held in his hand like a magician's wand, opening the magic show. He is the U.S. consular agent here and is waiting for the U.S. side to send Corlario to replace the resigned consul Yatwu.

Project Narcissus
The girl with braids felt like she had been asleep for days. Her head felt heavy against the window, her consciousness still barely breaking the surface of reality. She rubbed her eyes hard and let a deep inhale elongate her spine into an alert position. She was in some kind of chair, her elbows balanced on armrests and her back felt tight from slouching.
