So I watched  Utada Hikaru's  conversation with Hideaki Anno (accessed June 2021), and I don't understand a lot of it, because its in Japanese. So I went to the translation video and found out that she had a deep experience with Leonardo da Vinci's St John the Baptist.  Long I have been wondering how could people experience paintings in a profound level, so I tried to search for the pictures. I didn't experience too much emotions (I experienced something at the beginning, but then its gone) but they are certainly engaging, for just thumbnails of them.  These are the ideas invoked at the experience: - They have multiple angles people could take and relate themselves to. The deeper you immerse yourself the more you could experience, but to optimize the experience you should expand yourself into the depths of the universe. The further you've been the more there it is that you could understand about them.  - Leonardo da Vinci has different versions of Jesus and John the

Privilege to me is being rich, acccess to money. But since people often use it when they were exposed to greatness I rationalize that that would be a privilege as well. But inside, I don't really get it personally. If you're a singer and Ariana Grande performed with you, I get it. But if you catch Ariana Grande on the street and took a picture with autograph, I don't get it.  Also you supposed to be able to use it to someone who won 20.000 dollars from the slot machine, but nobody says that like that.

The reason why God put the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil in the garden, and prohibited the humans from eating them is: It was a grant of privilege to become creatures of discipline. Gods, or children of God The discipline was particularly

If you believe that the world is unfair, unfair to you, you'll notice more and more how the world is unfair to you. If you believe that the world has balancing mechanism, that its supposed to be fair, you'll figure out more and more, how the world is actually serving you justice (not a law, but a development) So when the depression has passed, or has became passable, lets notice the wisdom that is calling for us to notice her

Often times people complained over working overtime or employees not wanting to work overtime while not contributing enough. Also I assume that the popular argument was that working overtime costs not only extra salary expenses but also productivity expenses in the future.  I'm all for working effective and efficiently, utilizing the working hours as much as possible. But people often stopped after the notion that working overtime is bad, but looking at it deeper, there are at least 2 divisions of reasons why it is bad: 1. Invasion of privacy. People need their own time with themselves and their family, prying on this means the business would be perceived as a negative contributor to one's quality of life even though it is also the income source of the family. Salaries are supposed to support one's quality of life, but if the expense was the quality of life itself then its about margins.  2. Specialization problem. If you worked overtime because you are doing multiple kinds
