These considerations should begin from the 1990s and specify what I realize as enlightenment. Then we'll effort to figure out what identity is and what the consequences are of its lack.
Aristotle’s wisdom consists of technological knowledge, intuitive thinking, and reason. By technological cognition he meant specified apparent things as: in the sun I am warm, water quenches thirst and the thrown object falls. In another words, something irrefutable, something another than abstract discoveries from physics. Intuitive reasoning is simply a certain ability to realize things with parts of unconscious souls, or any kind of heart, as we would call it today. Reason, however, is the ability to draw lessons that benefit us and the ability to think analytically leading us to the truth. All of this, as mentioned above, requires us to work (get knowledge), humility (intuition) and intelligence (reason). Still, it is hard for us to delegate clearly that he is wise or not. Wisdom itself is indeterminate and is more of a process within which we accomplish this wisdom. It requires effort and objectivity.
With what? au The railroad is enlightenment? This is simply a trait that, erstwhile we have achieved certain values, we can clearly attribute ourselves. So this enlightenment is far simpler than wisdom. We have an appointed direction to follow and, along the way, to get certain knowledge, possessed by indicated authorities. Then we accomplish the position of enlightenment, and thus any kind of identity. Clearly, it is much easier to become enlightened than wise. And the mistake of our time is to equalize both concepts and to attribute wisdom to enlightened people. And these 2 terms, wisdom and enlightenment, are NOT the same!
Now it's the '90s and no identity.
I myself have not had this dubious pleasance to experience on my own the benefits of PRL, so this description will be rather intuitive. I trust on what I've heard from my parents, grandparents, uncles and all their friends. From these descriptions that I heard, I can think of a grey perspective. People were grey not due to the fact that they dressed like that, but education, culture, character, social relations were, "grey." There were no colors, no desire to live. The pettyness and acceptance of the strategy and the deficiency of will to change it led to the greyness of worldview. Grayness, that is, the deficiency of a mixture of colours, the reluctance to give value and the pursuit of something colorful, which is more crucial than cucumbers and half a litre vodkas.
The year 89’ and the fall of the commune comes. These grey people are about to enter the planet of democracy now, full of colors. In another words, these grey people do not have the colors that are liable for the sense of identity! This is absolutely crucial due to the fact that society was thirsty for these colours and their request for a fresh pallet was dictated by the ambition to belong to any group, preferably not communist. They sought the colors of the West, the colors of democracy, freedom. The problem was they didn't know how to get there. At this point, in this deficiency of identity enter the elite of postpeereThe lowski and broad group of enlightened (!) editors and journalists, who unfortunately did not realize this, were besides steeped in grayness. They were besides incapable to comprehend the colors of the fresh planet and convinced of their enlightenment, began filling the civic palette with further shades of grey. And this society of the 1990s did not realize it. In another words, this identity void was not filled with anything, meaning the deficiency of identity did not vanish – it was only developed. 2 currents were created in the process. First – hurrapatrioci, second – unreflexive lovers of the West. Both were built on the pattern of enlightenment. The Greys believed in their “new” pattern of enlightenment as the 1 and the right one, and in the sucurse of this devolution came dedicated media and channels on tv and articles In newspapers. People were not offered to search wisdom, but were offered only enlightenment. This was absolutely crucial to them due to the fact that it built a sense of self-esteem. Sharak was no longer a foolish, lost man in a fresh reality. He understood her now and knew what to do to make it right.
Changing these misconceptions is very difficult. specified inability to absorb cognition and imagination incompatible, whether with hurrapatriotism or with the worship of the West, is the consequence that if individual admitted to being deceived in enlightenment, they would besides have had toe admit that for 30 years he has been allowed to ,,do bambuko". But that would mean being that stupid, lost man, and that man doesn't want to be either of us. Cognitive dissonance, par excellence. Hence the concrete of this generation.
The mechanisms described above in the early 1990s reflect gross hiccups 30 years later. Children who enter adulthood in the second decade of the 21st century are lost and identityless even more than their parents. How much harm do they endure present trying to find their pallet? colors, is evidence of how the identity void and complexes of those 1990s were harmful. The grayness they received from their parents has remaineda filled by the fiend of the 21st century. Their deficiency of self-esteem simply multiplied. Today, young people stick to the streets, pour statues and another works of art in paint, search solutions to their problems through sex change, are addicted to masturbation, endure massively from depression, maim themselves and believe in lying “scientists” proving them, for example, the deficiency of biological differences between women and men. I do not mean that all of this is the responsibility of the widely understood michnikowszczyny of the 1990s – the subject is far more complex. I just want to show how painful the deficiency of identity and self-esteem is.
How are same - esteem and inferiority problems manifested? In addition to the uncritical acceptance that what is in the west is better than what is in Poland, there is besides a downplaying of their efforts and attributing the economical success of the ruling party, including the hurrrapatriotic party. People who, in the 1990s, entered the labour marketplace and started families are a generation with large industriousness. Remembering the view of the store shelves only with vinegar and cucumbers, they did everything to defend their loved ones, especially children from the same. They spent countless hours at work, then went to the store, picked up the children from school, and on their way home they cooked dinner to then sit with the children on the homework; at the end they cleaned the home and went to bed. They had small time for each other. The passwords of the kind “be realized always”, “the most crucial is your development”, or something like “work-life balan”ce’ did not exist. They ran around without hesitation, frequently in 1 place of work throughout their lives, ripping off their voices, deafness, destroying their backs – i.e. forgetting their health. And, hell, they can't realize that this incredible progress
The Polish economy of the last 30 years, thanks to them. They attribute this to the European Union or to the politicians of a peculiar organization they sympathize with. Stop! All those wise heads from Wiejska in Warsaw truly wasted the fruits of your hard work in countless scandals, blown-up bureaucracy and nepotism, and spending public money on worthless programs.
Turn off your TVs, throw out the "split" newspapers and look at your hands, realize the magnitude of your work. Then you'll see how many you are.au warpau And how much you should value yourselves. You will begin to truly require from these "gargameli" from TV, due to the fact that you have the right to do so as full-value people. You don't gotta have any complexes looking west. On the contrary, you are a function model for them.
Have the courage to search wisdom! due to the fact that if you don't, you'll be cursed by the past of the generation that wasted the wieIt's a chance to argue with each another about second and third-rate things. Times have changed, and there is simply a threat that can turn this advancement into dust the last 30 years.
PS. For the record, I have no credit for wisdom. These are just free thoughts of the man who was born after the 1990s.
