Less visible using Internet

Internet is also used to get distracted conflicting marriages, each to his own, and no longer attack each other.

In a VIP cell, (said of the detention for important people, influential, though not enough to be unpunished), they found two men who barely knew.

Being highly educated people, shared the small room giving samples courtesy, consideration, deference. He listened without interrupting, moderated adjectives to not disqualify the other rudely, they said "good morning" to wake up.

They also tended not to be time the tiny bathroom. They looked after the cell toilet and laundry.

This does not last as long as they wanted. The repressed irritability was seen when one of the two raised his voice to assert their argument in a trivial discussion.

The other was quick to do the same "because it could not be less."

That night and the generous unsaid "to rest and sleep well ', the next day, not greeted. The hostility was installed. I did not speak but growled.

One day, the highest pushed smaller and this mother insulted him. The highest grabbed him by the neck and tried to choke for a few seconds.

A guard saw the situation and I told the head of the prison, because if something happens to any of these illustrious characters disgraced, the ruling party have been accused before the Court of Human Rights.

The Solomonic Director provided to inmates of a tablet each and peace returned to the tiny cell. They were mentally isolated and stopped fighting.

This is a metaphor: the inmates form a marriage partner and the solution so it does not hurt is used by many couples today.

Reality and fantasy



Our psyche processes what we perceive with what we believe and fit with reality is not permanent.

Our house is built with small pieces arranged such that, among all, are so strong walls that support the weight of the roof for many years.

Those pieces (bricks, blocks) could be compared with our ideas, knowledge, beliefs, prejudices, which, united by the need to be consistent, make up our personality, way of being, mind, thought.

As I can see no one is like you want to be but it is as you can, as his lot.

Moreover, almost all claim to be in a certain way, we have an ideal, an aspiration of how we like to be: smart, clever, fast, tireless, wonderful, successful, permanently cheerful and a long list of equally positive attributes.

This ideal is very attractive and that is why we impose more force than he could resist our tendency to realism. The desire to accede to that way of being that we desire are so strong that, very often, we think we have achieved, we are self-deceived rave.

All of our ideals is organized in a kind of story, story, novel, legend, myth. Each of us lives his life like a movie, a play.

In that movie occupy a role and assume those characteristics that have shape the profile of the character we act.

All this happens in a kind of dream, in which reality mixed with fantasy: dialogue with another person from a certain point of view, we come to ask for a job thinking that we are in a certain way, act as the spouse should be, and so on for most of the time in which we assume that everything is real, objective.

The seduction of the portraits


In a series of portraits, when the model "look at us," reassures us, but when we look, we are seduced.

This is a comment on something we all know but which are not explanations.

That we all know are the photographs that the model looks at the camera or looking to one side.

What postulate as a premise is that when the photographed facing the camera looks less seductive than when facing its side, as if looking at someone else other than us.

Now imagine that the act of looking that picture is like being with that person.

To be more clear, I will ask you to use as an example the image of Penelope Cruz in this article.

That image is attractive because in our fantasy are feeling jealous, because we ask, "Who are you looking so earnestly?, Why she did not just look at me?"

Let us refer to our childhood, when mom's eyes was a reliable indicator of whether we had the essential collaboration or this support was in doubt because Mom looked at other siblings, or worse still, watching our father, who notoriously held over her an enviable power of attraction.

When looking at this picture of Penelope Cruz looking to his right or to his left, men and women feel jealous and this jealousy make her draw us more, we magnetize, beguile us.

Of course, our model should look at ourselves from time to time. Some shots must "look to the photographer '. If you never make our fantasy fall into despair and abandon.

In a series of images, when "we look" increases our peace and when we look at increases our anxiety and we are attracted, seduced, eager to get back to reassure watching.

Linguistic infection



Anyone who says publicly that homeownership is a right, predisposes to a confrontation between citizens.

Until a century ago kiss on the mouth to a tubercle was not worrying ... rather, it was very dangerous, as now, just that no one thought to think that the disease was contagious.

Currently it is possible to live together and have sex with an HIV positive or who have AIDS, provided that they take minimal precautions.

Just as in every age just ran risks long after they knew that this was the cause of an untimely death, we may think that we are currently doing the same thing we're doing something that will bring serious harm but, not being aware, we so.

For example, if we express without anyone edit, home ownership is a right, we are really saying that the person is authorized to commit various acts that help you recover a right that can not be enjoyed for reasons beyond their will.

In a similar way we also say that we all have the right to health, to food, to education, to protect us from the cold, to be parents and have material resources to serve them with dignity.

Not this way of expressing naive and perhaps is generating social pressure perceive consequences only when we realize collectively.

It's very different, to say that as a people is our dream that one day all owning some small part of the territory they occupy, to say that we all have the right to own that parcel.

In this case, those who believe the verbatim that owning your home to become legal citizens allowed to require you to supply a home, we annoyingly predisposing to non-owners against the owners.
