The Rat and the Mouse

Once upon a time, there was a rat who lived in a big city. He had everything he could ever want: plenty of food, a warm place to sleep, and lots of friends. But one day, the rat got bored. He decided to leave the city and explore the countryside.

The rat traveled for many days until he came to a small village. He was tired and hungry, so he decided to look for food. He found a barn and snuck inside. The barn was full of hay and grain, and the rat was soon feasting.

As the rat was eating, he heard a noise. He turned around and saw a mouse. The mouse was small and scared, and the rat could tell that it was lost.

The rat felt sorry for the mouse, so he invited it to join him for dinner. The mouse was grateful, and the two of them quickly became friends.

The rat and the mouse spent the next few days exploring the countryside together. They had many adventures, and they learned a lot about each other.

One day, the rat and the mouse came to a river. The river was wide and fast-moving, and the rat knew that the mouse would not be able to cross it alone.

The rat decided to help the mouse across the river. He picked up the mouse in his mouth and swam across the river.

The mouse was so grateful to the rat for saving its life. The two of them continued to be friends for many years, and they always looked out for each other.

Moral of the story: True friends are always there for each other, no matter what.

UNCERTAINTY IS CERTAIN

  Uncertainty is Certain G. Donald Allen 12/12/2024 1.       Introduction . This short essay is about uncertainty in people from both secular and nonsecular viewpoints. One point that will emerge is that randomly based uncertainty can be a driver for religious structure. Many groups facing uncertainty about their future are deeply religious or rely on faith as a source of comfort, resilience, and guidance. The intersection of uncertainty and religiosity often stems from the human need to find meaning, hope, and stability in the face of unpredictable or challenging circumstances. We first take up the connections of uncertainty to religion for the first real profession, farming, noting that hunting has many similar uncertainties. Below are groups that commonly lean on religious beliefs amidst uncertainty.   This short essay is a follow-up to a previous piece on certainty (https://used-ideas.blogspot.com/2024/12/certainty-is-also-emotion.html).

Problem Solving? Then Find Those Gaps

  Problem Solving - Finding Gaps 12/28/2024 Introduction. Solving complex problems often arises from the presence of gaps in knowledge, resources, understanding, or perspectives. These gaps introduce uncertainty, ambiguity, or constraints, making solutions difficult to achieve. Below, we explore the primary types of gaps that complicate problem-solving and their implications. Many are of the technical, informational, theoretical, and social nature. You may discover some of these gaps are also sources of uncertainty in problem-solving, in that they supply us with another list of things that can go wrong based on something missing. Gaps also form a type of impossible problem, that will be discussed in a later chapter. Finally, this essay is about all problems and solutions, not just those of science.

CERTAINTY IS ALSO AN EMOTION

  Certainty is also a Feeling Certainty is often viewed as a mental state tied to knowledge and confidence, but it also functions as a feeling with distinct emotional and physiological components. While it arises from cognitive processes, certainty also has a subjective and emotional quality that makes it more than just a rational judgment. It provides a sense of assurance and security that shapes human experience in profound ways. Emotional Dimension . At its core, certainty evokes emotions that influence how we perceive and interact with the world. When someone feels certain, they often experience relief, comfort, or empowerment. These emotions are particularly strong when uncertainty or doubt is resolved, offering a sense of closure. For example, solving a complex problem or having a belief validated by evidence brings not just intellectual satisfaction but also emotional reassurance. Subjectivity. Certainty is inherently personal and subjective. It depends on individual...
