I mentioned lately that I'm currently reading a book by Erich Fromm called "to have or be." The author regrets there on the evolution of language toward the increased use of the word "take" by the modern people and the delivery volume of verbs and replacing them with nouns. I decided to counteract this and came up with an exercise that anyone can do.
thing is very simple. To feel the essence of "being" you have to realize that being a kind of process, constantly flowing and changing in time river. How you can help yourself to the task? Very simply, follow the instructions :
- Use as many verbs other than "have" . Instead: "I have a meeting" under rather "meet." The idea is to realize that we do not have a meeting, if anything, it has, in a sense, us through our time. Likewise, is it not pleasant to say, "work" like our grandparents, than: "I have a job?
- Use the active voice instead of passive voice as often as possible, especially in their thoughts and think of yourself as a whole . Do not let this cup was raised by you or worse, by your hand. After all, it's not your hand reaches for her mug just doing it You and only you alone about it you decide.
Remember that life is not only a different literature, the form and content creation, where you do not have to take care of design work to adapt to the requirements of the reader. It is important to begin to renounce slavery to the objects that are imaginary, such as love, which is only an abstraction for the activities of love. You may not in fact possess love, but you truly love. Even if you think it's just gibberish, please think about this post, you can feel even a little bit more free in the modern consumer world.
