I am taking the 7:41 train in the bitterly cold morning. On the day after tomorrow and therefrom, I have to take the 7:31 train. It must be very cold.
In individualism societies, we have to live basically self-sufficient mental lives.
Can one culture claim to be superior to others? Can one thought claim to be superior to others? I wonder why some people claim to be superior to others.
Some people seem to firmly believe in the progress of history. If it does, why doesn't the world become better place to live in? How many people can claim to be happier than before? The number plainly shows that "the progress" should be an illusion.
