The highest moral




The highest moral, is to respect individual wills, which do not harm the public interests.

I believe that many of us consciously agree with this statement.

Nevertheless, I still tend to emphasise that to aware of something consciously, is far not enough, if this something is the core and key element of reasoning. The ideal status would be that it is digested into our subconsciousness, into the flowing air with every of our breathe. Because all ideas and principles, no matter how simple and easy they sound like, it would not be a simple and easy thing, when applying them into every move of our actions.

Language is a tool that is supposed to make communication easier. So, if  the opposite effect appeared, that is definitely a tragedy. Literature as the art applied to language, is supposed to make the reasons and philosophy of life easier to be understood, and to make the complicated things simpler, at the very end, but not the opposite effect. It needs us to settle down with it and to pay enough effort to acquire the truth of its art.

Unfortunately, we are not so lucky in reality. More and more of us, nowadays, are turning away from the comprehension of the existing language. We do not care and not interested about the logic behind words, as if they are purely historical trash, which is resulted from the environment that is lacking of sientific high tech entertainment. We are witched to become the chaser of the new products which are coded with specific computer language, feverishly, while the fundamental language of computer can be actually only acquired by a very small group of high intelligent elite, the IT technicians. This is the phenomenon often make me feel confused. I don't understand why people tend to abandon something which is at least partially belong to them but rather rely on something which is totally out of their control. What kind of stupidity would lead people to believe that we are so confident for handling the abstruct multiple formulars, while we cannot even calculate 1 + 1= 2?

Words above were stored in the draft box unfinished from last month. So it took a while for myself to read it now and tried to figure out what was going on in my brain by then.

I guess, the main reason for this note, was the helpless feeling resulted from the fact that people are getting more and more self-centered, while actually farther and farther from oneselves, because the existing cognitive system, which is built on literal language, is neglected, human relation is turned like relation between individual machines.

It is not a problem appeared freshly, but a problem which is getting more and more seriously. Without understanding, from where comes respect? Mental health, morality, those concepts sound abstract, but they affect the quality of life. They affect the quality of life, of those people who enjoy communication with high resolution. They affect my life, at least.

Literature is supposed to make life easier to be understood, or at least clearer to us.
And literature studies with their literatur professors are only here to make literature and the understanding of it more complicated.

hahahahah~~~~~~~~~~ the case like what you said, is a challenge to literature study students, while knotted wires are the challenge to our emotional intelligence. Certainly, in the meaning time, they are the tests, through which, we can see that if our own wires are knotted, (in other words, they provide chances for us to see whether our brain is through-train or not).
