The past does not define us.

" There is no psychology, there is only biography and autobiography . "

" Among the animals is "eat or be eaten" among humans, "define or be defined ".

Thomas Szasz . .

Psychoanalysis in many societies became one of the most, how to say it?, routine things. When ask to a person to make a list with the activities she does during the week, it is difficult to find one that does not say - go to therapy - referring to psychoanalysis. To the extent that it is making contact with people, one of the first things one become aware is how many make therapy, to the point of seems to be rare that person who says do not go to psychoanalisis sesion because it has not the need.

This phenomenon, like all things, it is not coincidence, has a cause or origin and is not the stressful of to live in society, since in the past people didn't pass wonderfull times. All time had its complications, this is not a worse, in fact some argue that these times should be better.

Romanticism, promoted dream.

We will not talk about of the historical origins of Romanticism, nor discuss of the fact that wonderful artistic works was born in the Romantic age. 

Only we will focus on contemporary romanticism seen from an unusual perspective, from its dark side. 

Was talk earlier about the damage caused by social models , the romance aspect is purposely implemented in modern society where media promotion and encouragement of this human aspect is very strong, either by the acceptance that has and profits it generates for the film industry , music, stuffed animals, perfumes, editorials, florists, jewelers, religious temples, party's halls, etc.. or effect that causes constant cyclothymia necessary to sustain society in its current situation, that is, discontent and constant search.

Lying is not inevitable, but it hurts.

Lie is instituted in societies that forced the "perfect" human, ie perfect for societies.

Seems not to be possible be truthful and, at the same time, survive to society.

Husbands should lie, employees and bosses must lie, parents and children should lie, politicians, police, students, educators, lawyers, psychologists, marketers, scientists, scientistic, etc.. can not avoid lying, because there is a social character to hold and that comes only with the lie, because otherwise, people would simple people. Lying, as I said, is instituted and is the cornerstone holding to the societies as histrionic hypocrisy situation that ruins the life and health of their inhabitants, and for what?.

The sadness deepens.

Who dares to see the beautiful face of the sadness without sticking to her?.
This feeling so human that, appearing in all of the world's population, is putting at the same level and go equating to each and every one,  placing to them in a deep place in which it is recalled that there is a state where truth takes value.

When this feeling comes through the mind, compressing the chest and bringing forth tears, life changes its hue. The color saturation and flashes in the life of a person, inexplicably, loses its power and beauty in the eyes of a being in the state of sadness.

Jealousy, a symptom that we're Loving?.

Can a feeling so harmful, be born of love?.

Obviously, there is a distortion of the idea of what love is.

Maybe love is a feeling too pure and lofty as to be sure what is and how it feel for one person and their limitations, but may know what is not.

Then we take it for granted that those who experience jealousy does it for lack of love and not for his presence.

Dispel the classic idea we have of that jealousy is a sign that we love and are loving us, it is extremely important to recognize that in reality we do not know The love, and the impediment is the false idea that we have of him .

Believe that we are loving is what prevents us from loving, knowing that we ignore what is love really open the door to the unknown and the possibility of experiencing a feeling so sublime as can be love.

The power that money brings.

There is a strong link, in today's world, between money and power. Now, the power of what?.

Once, I read a tip given by a father to his son and said something like, "from time to time, take a bill from your wallet and looking it intently say: This bill is mine. Thus let it clear which of both is the owner. "

People seem to have lost, after so long, the true sense of the existence of the money that is no longer a means to become an end.

One night we walked with my nine year old niece who had given her for her birthday a bill of fifty. I was surprised when she said, "I wish to have one hundred".

I, who knew she did not have much idea of ​​money, asked her what it was for. And I was not surprised with the response, she just said: "to have one."

So I took the opportunity and made this pose:

Imagine that at the moment you start to feel hungry, you have a hundred but no one will change it for food, what do you do?.

She replied, "I can not even eat because it is toxic."

That is the value of money. None. The money is only worth when you trade it for something. The value is in the people, the important "thing" is people, it is to them to have to assess over your money.

Persistent chronic misanthropy.

The hatred of the human by human is a practical and / or a feeling more common that is believed.

As a sort of fake-humility, there are not few that refer to human beings with a kind of ruthless self-criticism, as a despicable, less intelligent entity, harmful or even inappropriate to live on the planet, because its  quality of highly destructive and apathetic with nature.

An example would be the phrase of Sigmund Freud who would have said something like:

"The clearest proof that there is intelligent life on other planets is they have not yet come to visit us."

If the ideas that arise when we think of man or mankind, are examined surely we will find with a feeling of contempt, one latent and implanted feeling inside, that surfaces at times .
The concept we have, in general, of the human being, is not very encouraging, especially for humans.
