    How to avoid people making this face at you when you’re talking to them – How to have a good conversation (and how to have a shitty one)

    November 1, 2018 - By Dave

    The easiest way to get someone’s face to freeze in a horrified and confused rictus like that is, when you’ve entered into conversation, to share facts, figures and nothing but cold, administrative objective truths. It’s not showing our strengths or how good our life is going, or how cool we are that bring us closer to others. And it’s not…

    A Deep Dive into: Fear [pt.13] – Why be afraid of saying hey to an unknown human? (The Philosophy of: The School of Life)

    October 31, 2018 - By Dave

    Since it’s halloween, this is another of a Deep Dive into the emotion that dictates most, if not all, our decisions –fear. What do you have to lose by saying hi to someone you find interesting? What possible destruction to our life that could be done to us just by opening our mouths and forcing words out them in order…

    What is it like to be you?

    September 21, 2018 - By Dave

    The whole point of meaningful conversation may be one thing… to try to understand one thing we can never ever truly know… and that’s: what it’s like to be YOU. I can never know truly what goes on in your mind, and you can never truly know what goes on in mine. All the swirling emotions and random thoughts and…

    The thing that truly connects us to one another is our vulnerability, not our strengths.

    September 8, 2018 - By Dave

    The times when we most connect to someone else, on a deep level, might not be when they show us how strong and invincible they are; it might be when they show us vulnerable they are. An when they show you their vulnerability that’s not out of a out a gloating, that makes you feel superior and stronger than them,…

    ‘Qual è la vera vittoria, quella che fa battere le mani o battere i cuori?’ (Which is the real victory, the one that makes hands clap, or the one that makes your heart pound?’ – The philosophy of Pier Paulo Pasolini

    September 2, 2018 - By Dave

    Qual è la vera vittoria, quella che fa battere le mani o battere i cuori? – Pier Paulo Fasolini Everything you do (that you choose to do) is done for one reason: to feel something. And whatever you do, is it better to do it for the applause, the plaudits, the praise, or to make your heart beat, and to…

    ‘Cause in the end, we all wanna feel something.’ (The philosophy of: Fátima Pinto)

    September 1, 2018 - By Dave

    Why do you do anything? Why do you everything you do? To feel something. And that feeling specifically? Connection. Connection to yourself, who you want to be, who you were as a kid, who you want to be one day… connection to others and connecting to trying to understand what it’s like to be them… Connection to your own sense of…

    Why is flirting important? (The philosophy of: The School of Life)

    August 6, 2018 - By Dave

    Unless you have split personality disorder, there’s probably never ever a time when you look at yourself in the mirror (or talk to yourself) and truly want yourself. You know, actually look at yourself and desire to be with you, intimately. (In case you do do that though, I can tell you now, you don’t need to: You’ve got you! You are…

    A Deep Dive into: The absurdity of knowing (& understanding) other people [pt.2] – How is it possible to know why people do what they do? (& The philosophy of: Charlie Fineman from Reign Over Me)

    August 2, 2018 - By Dave

    If someone’s decisions seems odd or completely understandable to you, they’re probably a no-brainer to them. And even if you think you do understand the motivations and reasons for their decisions or what they do, you probably only know a part of the picture.  Natasha in Tolstoy’s War and Peace is misunderstood, though she had every right, in her mind (the mind…

    August 1, 2018 - By Dave

    Do other people sometimes act weird according to you? And other times is it quite expected? The only thing unites (or divides) you and those people may be the what they do, but it may perhaps in no way at all be the why. Think about your entire life up until this point… Think about every single thing that’s happened, and…

    It sucks to live on the other side of the world of people you care about, because you can’t ever share any experiences, right? Wrong. Every 105 or so years you can.

    July 28, 2018 - By Dave

    There’s one thing that connects you to every other person, everyone you care about, no matter where they are around the world. And that’s the cosmos.  So even if you’re on the other side of the world from people you care about, you can still share real life experiences (ones that are in the physical world, not technological ones) and all…
