A Balanced and a Tragic Vision of Humankind - Dinis Guarda: There is a fragile line between raw emotional intelligence and emotional competency. One kind of plays with an invisible fire, where the rules are rewritten by forces of education, tradition and vulnerability inside the wires of the brain cells, mirror neuron mind and its neuroscience factors. What can one believe in the end is that we are in a body with limitation and in a mind with huge capacities but with powerful black holes. And one can think about working with the flow of the river of the snap social decisions and the personal myths and fictions one constructs through the elements of culture, education and each own physical bodies.
There are no official intellectual definitive “answers” and I think that no one in his own mind might be actually confident that he knows anything with certainty. Everyone tries to get their own how-to-reach-happiness-in-a-number-of-steps in a kind of post-structuralism simplistic vision of the utopian vision, associated with Thomas More, Rousseau, Godwin, Condorcet, and Thomas Paine… Still the truth is that we are a “lost” species in a world / universe that no one of us can completely understand.
Mankind is indeed a species of chaos and instinct, with a sense of understanding both the move another person is about to make and their feelings, and instantaneously preparation to imitate that movement and feel it.
And the challenge is how to conduct a way through the believe and not believe. How to drive to a personal transformation that gets a balance between the tragic of mankind (its memory, layers of complexity and negative fears) and my own mankind, the way I live with myself each day. This is the biggest challenge for anyone of us to be willingness to fly beyond the scarcity of consciousness and prejudice. And of course the challenge that can makes us believe and get out of that state of tragic export – how to get absence and live out of judgment and negativity.
Instead of being the lost soul of a loner drifting aimlessly having a peripatetic wind, I'm now preferring something with more bite to it. As experience is just nature cruel way of giving the exams first followed by their lessons; you eventually reach a point where silence can no longer be contained no matter the cost.

"Jim! You can be SO SMART, but you can be SO DUMB!" "Jim! You make such a MARTYR of yourself." "He's a nice guy, but...." "You must be from up NORTH!" "You're such a DICK!" "You CRAZY!" "Where the HELL you from?" "Don't QUITE know how to take your personality." My favorite, "You have this... NEED... to be....HONEST!"
