True maturity is when one "is" and continues to "be" in a position and after the position one has and this applies in any public or private personal relationship at work or professionally.
Why am I saying that? Because clinging to power, in a sickly way, is a product of insecurity in himself, his own psychic minority, as well as greed and "vain-glory".
Moreover, power distorts reality.
It is like a perverse constitutional tradition, which also in my country or anywhere in the world is called *Nominalism, which is to deny or evade the "real-reality" and replace it with laws and constitutions that no one complies with, starting with the leaders of a country themselves.
I think what works is "enemies, the law, and friends, everything."
I read a lot and in my historical memory, I come across people who still ask...What happened to us? I think Plato would answer...
The first act of corruption is to hold an office for which you are not prepared. This racist thesis has prevailed all over the world for centuries and gave rise to what was called "civilization vs barbarism".
In general, all the so-called "positivists" assumed this thesis. Nowadays I think that every time someone stays silent out of shame, the world misses out on that.
I wish that these things would serve as pedagogy, to educate a society. The little value, of empty words, and the little loyalty, of the clientel mass.
Of all this that I write, I suggest that,examine everything and keep the good, so at every moment, every experience even in crisis situations... we are the only ones responsible and caretakers of our mental and emotional health.
A lesson in history, diplomacy and humor, as.the way Charles Chaplin did humor in historical, sociological and political environments, his social criticism and eternal validity of all his speeches that had those characteristics, merit of those who wrote them and of Chaplin himself, who knew how to express them.
History is always on the move and this 21st century is not going to be the exception, and unfortunately wars are still present and the apocalyptic nuclear threat as well.
On the other hand, building peace and the culture of encounter of all the countries and societies of the world, remains the most important and urgent task.
Sometimes we make the mistake of taking ourselves too seriously.
The world has so much space where we all fit, if we really learned to live together and support our talents we would be extraordinary. Memories can be erased but they are never forgotten, loves, affections, traumas, real pains, certain places, certain times, certain people.More love and respect for everyone.Without turning off anyone's light.
