Feelings?

Can feelings be classified into two groups - primarily physically-based feelings and primarily metaphysically-based ones?

Feelings such as hot, cold, hungry, love, hate, and anger seem to start from physiological processes (nerves, hormones), while feelings such as like or dislike of humor seem to be mainly based on metaphysical processes.

Hmm...

Diligent, hardworking and honest people need to beware. Others who aren't do not like such people.

Read somewhere that people resent those who are better. 

Example? Kids with bad grades dun like ones with good grades, sometimes. 

That kind of resentment could arise from survival instinct, so it might be due to physiological processes

On the surface, it seems only some resent others, but unconsciously, it could be another story...

Feelings could be due to chemicals and electric impulses around and in nerves. Why the chemicals and electric signals create thoughts and feelings is not known.

Okay, physiological process-based feelings and metaphysical feelings.

With metaphysical feelings, there is no foundation, so to speak. So, these feelings are based on nodes of knowledge? So, if cognitively dissonant, then no nodes, which is equal to feelings and thoughts not based on knowledge?

Knowledge is normally based on true facts or assumptions Common sense.

So, if one believes in untrue or false assumptions, further knowledge in that area is improbable? Gotcha!

Most people are somewhat cognitively dissonant, while some appear lost?

Plausible.

Feelings? Are feelings thoughts? Thinking that one feels something, or the external influence makes one think that way? For hot and cold... 

Hormone-based thoughts and metaphysically-based thoughts? Instinctive thoughts and higher dimensional/complex thoughts?

Some common nodes of knowledge exist in everyone's minds. Do these nodes exist in an unseen  dimension or are minds connected by some quantum entanglement-type phenomena? Maybe both?

Both. Could also be thought of as an unseen dimension of knowledge? Can easily get lost in here. 

No wonder most people avoid thinking, these thoughts.

Job?

Or pastime?

Writing reports on stock exchange filings and financial news is helpful when investing. 

Writing seemed to be a chore in past jobs. After retiring, writing became a pastime, then a job again. But now it is easy and sometimes a joy. Maybe enjoyable due to pay? Probably true. Could be due to different perspectives?

When writing in jobs, shortcuts or compromises or taken due to lack of time. When writing as a pastime, there is more freedom to explore thoughts and knowledge.

Thoughts move, while knowledge grows and appears to lurk in darkness?

Information energy? Can be transmitted, weakened, strengthened, destroyed, created. True information seems to resonate to form nodes of knowledge (constructive thoughts/information)?

Gun manufacturers, dealers, some lawyers, some lobbyists, gun magazines, ammunition makers, some advertising companies, some politicians and some owners appear to dislike government and regulations. Less government and regulations will further the distance to restrictive gun laws.

Guns are their ticket to the rich life. Over a hundred million guns in the US and probably a similar amount exported (many to criminal organizations). Seems like money rules (in) all nations. 

Do it the Korean way? Everyone who passes requirements is allowed own a gun, but the guns must be stored at the police station and checked out for use. LOL. A relic of dictator Park.

Attempts to change the law have been NON-EXISTENT. Why? Very few people make money from guns in Korea.

Although lots of Koreans own guns for hunting and sport, none are acquaintances.

Corporations Required To Announce Large Investments

Listed corporations are required by law to announce plans for significant investments, such as large acquisitions. 

None of the listed corporations of the Korean conglomerates that pledged to invest vast amounts in the next years have filed such plans to date.

Wonder if they will file? Should be soon, if they really plan to spend money this year or even the first half of next year.

(CORRECTED - the pledges include past amounts that were pledged, I read. So, some of the investments have already been announced. It depends on the economy. If the economy is good, they will likely keep a majority of their pledges, if the economy is not so good, then no way).

Get paid to know these things. Is it a miracle? In many ways.

Think Korean conglomerates are cheering for a conservative win in the local elections next week because of comprehensive property taxes. The family owners, executives, corporations, acolytes, and relatives, own most of the real estate in Korea. 

The conservatives want to lower or eliminate comprehensive property taxes, but the progressive/liberal party holds a majority in the parliament, so the law is unlikely to be changed.

Almost all media only publish blatantly pro-Yoon, pro-conservative party articles ALL the time and call the opposition criminals and such. Yet, the conservatives are losing in many districts, over 50%. Hope the recent historical trend is maintained. hehe.

The progressive party holds over 50% of the seats in the parliament. Faint light of hope!

Real insights into Korean society, not BS from conservative media.

Absentee voting starts today.



Understanding Requires Common Ground

Or some mutual telepathic connection?

That's a very pertinent question.

All life appears to have some metaphysical connection, do you think? 

If 'do you think' is effective subliminal messaging, imagine the consequences of  'don't you think'?

A world populated by a lot of people who don't think, sounds familiar.

Why do these questions keep springing to the consciousness, aside from interest?

Could be the process of knowledge being created/discovered in my thoughts through cognitive consonance, or resonating good/positive thoughts...

Drug Addict?

Sounds worse than drug abuser and much worse than drug dependent, or the truest nickname drug liker?

Sounds like the term was deliberately meant to denigrate and alienate drug users?

Should terms that incite hatred against some people be banned? Ban people who use such terms? From the metaphysical universe, hehe.

Ever hear 'alcohol addict'? No, but addicted to alcohol, yes. 

Guess 'addict' could be used without malice, such as 'football addict'.

There's so much money flowing in stocks. Dollar is now strong against the Korean Won and some stocks are undervalued, so foreign investors are buying again in some sectors. Foreign investors mostly sold in the past year or so, if memory is correct. 

I am a 15% addict. Need 15% or more annual return on investment. 



Our Metaphysical Universe?

The other side of our universe with metaphysical properties, metaphysical dimensions, reverse entropy, metaphysical energy, metaphysical feelings, metaphysical black holes and more? Where truth resonates?

Mostly my metaphysical universe for now, until others see more of it. Could get crowded. Where to go?

Always wanted things in the past and get most of them? Try not to want anything special and see where it leads?

Korean Conglomerates To Invest Hundreds of Billions?

They have pledged to invest and create jobs at the start of every past conservative President's term and failed to do so.

Suspiciously happens just before local elections on June 1.

Whoa! Even conservative Korean publications are complaining that Korean conglomerates always pledge to invest at the start of a president's administration but fail to do so.  

Invest Chosun - 재계 '역대급 투자' 보따리…정권 교체때마다 봐야 하는 불편함 

Did you know Samsung used to give expensive gifts and presents to prosecutors and judges, in some cases tried to give? Not to mention company executives being convicted for wanton destruction of evidence.

Reuters: Samsung trial tests South Korea's rule of law

Betcha President Yoon grants Lee a pardon and erases his convictions. 50:50 odds.

In Samsung's defense, please note that it seems to be a South Korean conglomerate 'thing' based on past history. They haven't changed in the past, why expect change in the future?

Shouldn't be so negative? Be more objective?

Another metaphysical feeling. Can truth be felt in music? Think so, from my perspective.
