Where Did You Open Your Eyes First? It Shouldn't Matter

This, that, this and that... Open your eyes, don't close it when the other thing comes which wasn't the first thing you saw. Each and every offers the same teachings, guidelines, principles. It is just wrong when we don't offer even a thought about them, it is just wrong if we close our door for other friends just because the friend we already have is good enough. Every human is same, although it's not like i am comparing these two maybe incomparable things.

In Bosnia, we sometimes say, it's all same, just with different cover, i bet there is this phrase in every part of this big precious ball we live in. I think that there are three stages to people's opinions... the first one is when we don't have any opinion about new things, second is we have our own opinions, and we d*** think that they are the "rightest" without any outer thought, and the third and last stage is when we have our opinions while being able to give a unbiased clear thought about different opinions, and of course transferring to it if we get it that it is right.

I'll say it loud and clear, being in the second stage is poisonous, for us and the people around us, and the world today is pretty poisonous. I could now say, yes... it is not easy to do it, but i won't... it is not Hard to do it. Like every new change we start, the part of creating that habit is the hardest, but we just have to do it, you'll have to find your own way to start up your heart to control your mind for one millisecond and do it.

It is funny and sad. How if one group suggests one thing, and a other group the same thing, the followers of each group will believe more to their own groups, while denying the opposite groups. It has been like this for centuries. While, who may know. Maybe both of these groups are wrong.
HyunSoung Kim is just an other ordinary person in this world who believes that thinking outside of the box is not enough, but that we should think further than that, the picture we get can be simpler than we ever imagined, in the end, all truths are simple.

Hyunsoung Kim, I truly enjoyed this article. It paralleled the visit of my daughter who is attending Honors College at the University of Southern Mississippi. She plans to go either into foreign service, or the CIA. One of our conversations we remarked that we were grateful we ended up where we had, Long Beach, MS of all places--because it firmly grounded her in humanity as the Spice of Life, and because of the friends she has had and getting to know their families, who are often misunderstood in our time and place, her passion and career are born. Regards, Suzi

I will visit your website.
