Happy weekend friends of WEEKEND EXPERIENCES, It is a pleasure to share again on these interesting topics and it is nice to know so many opinions worldwide, thanks to my friend Galenkp for offering us this diversity of topics every week.
It is common to hear the phrase "Man is bad by nature"
We often hear this phrase in different situations and moments of life and it is that human nature contains all those characteristics, whether good or bad, and that they are very common behaviors in human beings.
Sometimes we follow patterns of bad or good behavior only by nature, among all these characteristics are included the ways of thinking, feeling and acting, which is said that humans have naturally.
This is such a complex topic that sometimes it is difficult to explain or to make understand, but there are some common elements of this topic which I personally love and hate, it was difficult to choose but I chose from all of them:
CREATIVITY AND LIES
CREATIVITY
One of the main human qualities that I love the most is creativity. All human beings have that gift of creating and doing incredible things and some explore that part of their being little. I think if we didn't have that gift, I think we would simply humanity would disappear, creativity is the motivation to make extraordinary things out of something simple.
Humans are capable of creating incredible things, such as art, music, technology, etc., human nature is formed both by nature and by the way of upbringing, just as genes influence our basic dispositions , but our experiences also play a role in shaping who we are.
A child who grows up in a loving and supportive creative environment will have more capacity to create than one who grows up in a sad and unmotivated environment.
For example,
My country Venezuela experienced a period of extreme crisis in which we did not even get the basic products to feed ourselves, due to this we could see how people invented different things such as fuel lanterns with a glass jar in moments of lack of light, Molinas de maíz paste mold corn, even strange recipes such as lentil croquettes to replace meat.
And it is that human beings develop the ability to create to the maximum, invent a way of living without the basic things that we had and create new things to continue living in a similar way to when you had all the comforts.
Another example is the indigenous people, we can see how they subsist in inhospitable places and with very little they achieve incredible things.
Another great example is recycling, it is incredible how the garbage man has managed to create new things from things that were already destined to be garbage.
And it is for this and more that I love that human nature to create.
Organizing furniture, lamps with lower energy consumption, special raincoats, inverted stand post photographs, some creations of the human being
LIES
On the other hand, you don't know how I hate lies, that is the part of human nature that I hate the most, lies can damage relationships in general and make it difficult for them to trust us in the future.
This is why it is important to be aware of the possible consequences that we have when lying, when we lie we are breaking trust with the person to whom we are lying.
Lies are part of human nature, we all lie on some occasions, sometimes we do it intentionally and other times unintentionally, there are many reasons why we lie, many times we even do it to protect ourselves, avoid conflicts or make ourselves look better.
And I am not saying that I am completely honest, but I do my best to be, of course, not all lies are the same, some lies are more harmful than others, for example, a lie that could hurt someone or cause problems , is much more serious than a lie that is told to avoid hurting someone's feelings.
Although there are occasions when sincerity can do a lot of damage, in these cases it is not about lying, but about omitting things. although this does not justify the fact of telling lies, only that sometimes we do not want to make someone else suffer.
But personally I am one of those who think that a painful truth is better than a white lie, I prefer to suffer with a truth than to be deceived and keep me happy only for a while and I speak in general terms not only talking about the couple.
A little advice from me:
Be honest with others, when you are honest you are more likely to be honest with others, this can create a cycle of trust and honesty around you 😊
we lie to children about the existence of Santa, doctors sometimes lie to us about the evils we present, when we lie to our relatives believing that this way we do not hurt them, when we break an object and lie to avoid a scolding
Human nature is a fascinating and very complex subject, which makes it very interesting to discuss and it is something we are still learning about, I say goodbye wishing you an excellent weekend!
