First Leaf
by Lia Purpura from the new yorker
That yellow
was a falling off,
a fall
for once I saw
coming—
it could
in its stillness
still be turned from,
it was not
yet ferocious,
its hold drew me,
was a shiny switchplate
in the otherwise dark,
rash, ongoing green,
a green so hungry
for light and air that
part gave up,
went alone,
chose to leave,
and by choosing
embellishment
got seen.
When I read this poem, the first thing that came to my mind was a schizoid personality disorder which I wouldn't call a disorder but a life style choice/adjustment. (sometimes forced)Life style choice of ongoing green people who were so hungry for light and air that they give up, go alone and choose to leave. But they somehow end up managing to believe that they have an emotional illness called a schizoid personality disorder. Only if I could make them see that it's the accumulation of their unmet emotional needs that eventually leave them wary and sour "cold and indifferent", not some illness perfunctory people like to use to label anything that they prefer not to understand to save their brain space for whatever petty things they like to worry about.

Confucianism
Something to think about... Wife(superior)..husband(suborninate) hmm. Of course Confucius meant the other way around but I don't really care about his misogynistic ass. The one thing that interests me about his social hierarchy theory is that in his theory, he says, there are two main roles in every relationship - one that is superior and the other that is suborninate.

Social developments
What the CARAJO are the social developments? and what do human really need?
What do human need?
Safe environment to live in (this is probably where the centralization of political, religious authority came in-> usually manipulative and power grabbing)
Food with surpluses (specialization of labor)
Freedom (to be creative -> development of technology, arts -> however, restricted by taboos, authority, etc)
So my conclusion is this,
Social development : repression of animalistic urgies for the great expansion of the human race.
* I love how liberating it makes me feel to look at the human race with an objective eye, which means I no longer need to ignore my urgy to go and eat the potato chips I've been eyeing on since this morning. Who cares if I die from stroke (high blood pressure is what I mean), it's all just cycles of life. *Crunch crunch

Good for the Fertile Brain

The sum total of their results suggests that religious belief may have arisen as a natural extension of evolutionary advances in social cognition and behavior. Over time, the changes in brain volume that enabled humans to show empathy towards others may have also made it possible for some to develop intimate personal relationships with a supernatural entity, thus laying the foundation for the emergence of religion.

The ultimate proof
The purpose of life
:people(as carnivorous species we are), should bring physically/emotionally healthy children into this world to help the human race survive until the earth decides that it doesn't want us here anymore.
