The psychological poverty trap →
Shafir has proved that anyone faced with adverse conditions will consistently make bad economic decisions. An experiment he conducted with Mullainathan and Zhao placed financially-savvy Princeton students from prominent families under the stressful and rushed conditions that poor people face every day. They were given questions to answer in a series of timed rounds, but were permitted to...

I have a theory about love
I’ve had many theories, actually;I’m exceptionally satisfied with this one.
The opposite of love is misunderstanding.
BOOM!
How do you like that?!?

If you agree or disagree, please reply :D

George Washington was in a jokey mood at the GOP dinner that Rick Perry chose as his Texas homecoming after a disastrous presidential bid. Perry was the keynoter Monday night at the Williamson County Reagan Day dinner in Round Rock. There were shots at Austin, where people tend to vote Democrat. And huzzahs for Williamson County, where people tend to vote Republican. At the head table was a...
So far, this hasn’t been fun at all…

I'm officially putting this spiral on hold.
Two people+Too little trust will never equal 1
One of us has got to give first
And each of us is saying “it won’t be me”
So where does that leave us?
At an impasse.
This will not move forward.

Future Conversation Between Friends
We need to talk about us.
Something has changed.
Has the way I feel about you changed? No.
But the way in which I interact with you has changed, ever since I said the “L” word,
and I wanted to give you the heads up that I’m changing it back.

And so when Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire in the fourth century AD, the church rulers and political rulers joined forces to accomplish God’s will “on earth, as it is in heaven.” They saw great benefit in being able to decide where a person would spend eternity, based on how they believed and behaved.
But not everybody believed the same thing. Disagreements arose...

Inception and Philosophy: It Was All Just a Dream →
At first, this may seem like a silly question—isn’t it obvious that what Cobb calls “the real world” really is real? But the more you watch the movie, the more you realize that this is not a silly question at all. In fact, Christopher Nolan seems to have left multiple clues that suggest Cobb is dreaming—dreaming the entire movie, even when he is supposed to be in the real world. The chase scene...

Carlos Manuel de Cespedes
He named Oscar, his fifth son, after his late second child Oscar, who was shot by a Spanish firing squad. The Spanish authorities wanted to exchange Oscar’s life for Céspedes’ resignation as President of the Republic of Cuba. He famously answered that Oscar was not his only son, because every Cuban who had died for the revolution he started, was also his son.
