Intellectualism, and compassion/love. ( Archived) (63)

Absolutely well spoken My friend....



May you never change!!

and before last night ?

Conceptual gestation procrastination.




It was brewing my friend...being of thick skull and dull heart, these things take time.

nice brew then, saw it clearly after i got a lil bit high .....

Joking ..

Its a serious but valid point Detente.

A lot of Intelligence or a high Intellectual quotient fails to deliver if without compassion or kindness.

I dont say agree with all or please anyone . Just not to look down upon another even if it is with a good intent would do, as the pain behind the scars could be deeper than what is visible to the eye.

The World could do with a higher emotional quotient on the intellectual ones.

and if anything is not worth saying in order not to provoke emotions that lead to strife, it is also not worth joking about.

One can hardly debate with agreeable people (people who agree with you, as opposed to people who are just plain annoyably agreeable, if you catch my drift)

I think we can agree on this, so no debate is required.

In fact opposition and/or a desire to expound on views is required. However I agree that that opposition does not require belittling or demeaning, inappropriate language focused to deter another's attempt at joining. Needing to make someone else feel stupid surely points to your own ignorance among other things.

HOWEVER.
The very premise is be disagreeable, (again a distinction between being disagreeing, as opposed to being annoyably disagreeable needs to be noted.)

Forward to the point;

I cannot find any disagreement with your words nor your postulation, hence I feel myself an annoyingly agreeable person at this moment, in that I spent time posting to merely agree. You !!!!!!! (insert unnnecessary expletive here) You, you made me do this!!!!



kidding buddy, please come up with something I can sink my teeth into for I will learn nothing from reading about your heartfelt feelings, though it may assist you in landing that riya fish? and I truely wish you luck with that ... oops sorry being agreeable again.

Unless you see those of the higher intellect blending in emotions with forms of mental stimulation, I can see it happening. Otherwise, the norm has a very difficult time reflecting on the differences.

What I do find fascinating is that, those same elements that mentioned in regards to love and compassion, is what triggers off the fire and urge to emotionally and mentally seek intellectualism in the first place.

Nice Thread

Thanks

You are right of course...a little mild contention is healthy for ones grey cell!

Which is why many took part in those debates with good grace and resonableness towards one another.

It is ESSENTIAL to challenge certain perceptions with a view to discovering the motives and reasonings behind such.

I have learned so much over the last couple of days...I genuinely feel the better for having read what I did, even if at times I found myself playing the role of the bumbling diplomat.

But it was great to see certain ladies come to the fore and educate us all...

As for the fragrant Riya, alas, India is but a dream.
