Best way to Grow on Steemit

Never watched her speaking. 3 minutes into the interview one can already see that her philosophy, certainly useful when formulated in the 50-ies, has been made obsolete by the progress of human understanding.

Faith and emotions are integral and, I should say, quite central to the human condition. By now, after so many centuries, I'm pretty confident they have been baked into our genes. Exploring how far pure reason and objectivism can lead us was certainly a worthy undertaking, half a century ago.

I'm certain it is about time we regain some balance and start integrating both reason and emotion into our assessment of what it is and what it should mean to be human.

I am not a fan of her ideas, just think she looked cool. lol 😃👻

But she does have a point that it can be hard to help other people if you cannot help yourself first, something that can be true in some cases...

But in other cases a healthy symbiosis in between people cooperating and helping out with what they can be a very good way of getting things done.

We are emotional beings trying to be reasonable and civilized, and I guess it has always been a struggle to find some kind of healthy balance for ourselves and for society as a whole...

Wise words. I knew I was right to become your fan ;-)

Thank you, you are a really supportive person @sorin.cristescu, thanks!
