We all know that people need to be nice to each other, as we all humans and live in one society.
However, is being 'nice' that important in our society? Does it really improve behaviour of humans in the society, or does it actually worsen it?
According to many Western countries, being 'nice' to your neighbour, co-worker, random person on the street have become part of culture. Although, people don't display their negative emotions towards particular individual, that do not mean they don't feel that way. As a consequence people learn to hide their true emotions and increase 'two face' traits. Is it good or is it bad?
When we are engaged in an activity with another person which we do not feel happy about, there are certain complication there. The concept of 'niceness' teach us to not hurt feeling of the member of your society. That is indeed important, but where is the limit of it? Does 'niceness' stop just there? Or does it actually dictates to wear the mask all the time. Pretending that people around are nice and ready to assist. But isn't it getting a little too much?
Does modern society really needs to be nice to that extreme? Does it mean that human race became more emotionally vulnerable than it's used to be?
What is important for society: niceness or sincereness?
P.S. I know that in some Eastern countries this concept is also common. (E.g. Japan...)
Freedom. What it is? Have you thought about it? Have you realised it?
Of course, interpretations of 'Freedom' differs from person to person. However, have you ever questioned yourself, is it a real freedom? Do we live in a free society or do we live in the illusion of it?
And, if we do live in the illusion, what are the boundaries of freedom? Where is that line beetwen freedom and chaos? Is there a line? And if yes, who decides to mark the line beetwen them?
I know I asked too many questions=) But it is a really nice way to make people think and discuss. I personally don't know. But recently, I came up with that idea and start thinking about it. What do you think?
P.S. It's really philosophical but yet, practical question in our modern society... Let's discuss it^_^
Please, I hope we discuss it in a civil way, with out insults to each other, ok? Good=)
Thank you all for your commitment on the topic in advance. I appreciate it very much.
Nauryz is a celebration date that symbolise a New Year.
In my country it is celebrated at 21 of March.(Vernal Equinox)
We believe that this day is a symbol of true Spring. It symbolises that everything is reviving, plants start growing after cold winter, birds coming back etc. At this day we share our food with neighbours and family.
In some regions celebration starts one week before 21st March.
People usually shake hands(with 2 hands) with greetings as 'Happy new year'(in our language).
Also younger people visit older family members in order to gain blessings.
This celebration is very common between Turkic countries, but I want to know if there are people who celebrate it in other countries too?
What do you know about Kazakhstan?
I am curious, as country is quite young, and not many people heard of us...(Not counting Sacha Baron Cohen's movie)
So could you please tell me what you know about that country? Please don't search on internet for answer.
Thanks in advance for everyone's answers.
