Suggested Reading 31

*In* *this series**, I assume the role of a reader instead of a writer, discussing articles by other writers... things I recommend.* https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#suggested-reading *Now it's time to make a compilation of suggested reading again, although it's growing increasingly difficult.* It's good to see @Trifecta returning for regular posting here. She is a good writer who always has a clear message with every post. https://read.cash/@Trifecta In Can we support our faves and be fans without being fanatics?, she brings up something to which I am wholeheartedly agreeing. I have personally experienced “unhealthy fandom” from both sides, so to speak, and it is really dangerous. https://read.cash/@Trifecta/can-we-support-our-faves-and-be-fans-without-being-fanatics-219308ae In The Fall of R. Kelly, she touches another thing I use to claim: that it is necessary not to mix up art with its creator. I once wrote about that in Private & Public – Is it Justified With a Free Press When Privacy is Outlawed? If nothing private is known about the creator, he would not get any extra power, not beyond his artistic influence, because the power emanates from his general status as being a celebrity. https://read.cash/@Trifecta/the-fall-of-r-kelly-7c3210bb https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/private-public-is-it-justified-with-a-free-press-when-privacy-is-outlawed-89a06337 I also recommend Why it's Critically Important to Regulate Emotional Response BEFORE it's Too Late and Peering through binoculars towards London Bridge. https://read.cash/@Trifecta/why-its-critically-important-to-regulate-emotional-response-before-its-too-late-989f426a https://read.cash/@Trifecta/peering-through-binoculars-towards-london-bridge-a1cfedce @Jnavedan, as so many other authors here (myself included), has decreased his publishing frequency, but he still continues to post good articles: Can money bring you happiness?, Fight your enemy: You have no choice, and Clutter in your head. https://read.cash/@Jnavedan https://read.cash/@Jnavedan/can-money-bring-you-happiness-68712458 https://read.cash/@Jnavedan/fight-your-enemy-you-have-no-choice-b75113bf https://read.cash/@Jnavedan/clutter-in-your-head-1c6ddbd5 @beyourself continues to produce articles about history and mythology. Among those published the recent weeks, we find: Dionysos-Greek Mythological God of Wine, Pandora-The First Woman of Greek Mythology and The Social Classes of Ancient Greek. https://read.cash/@beyourself https://read.cash/@beyourself/dionysos-greek-mythological-god-of-wine-17477131 https://read.cash/@beyourself/pandora-the-first-woman-of-greek-mythology-1fe392cb https://read.cash/@beyourself/the-social-classes-of-ancient-greek-a3a876e1 An author who has evolved considerably since he came to Read.cash, is @reanbooks. His choice of topics has grown more diverse, a quality I appreciate. https://read.cash/@reanbooks In Country Icon Eagle, he discusses symbols, one of my favourite topics. I even wrote about eagles as symbols, in The Eagle as an Heraldic Symbol of Empire. Our articles are not overlapping at all, they approach this subject from entirely different perspectives. https://read.cash/@reanbooks/country-icon-eagle-6975305c https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/the-eagle-as-an-heraldic-symbol-of-empire-50183a24 In Painting: Beauty Or Meaning, he discusses a quite difficult matter: how to appreciate art, what's the quality in a painting? If you are interested in this question, I also suggest you read two of my articles: Art as Visual Music & The Importance of Form and Practising Art: The Art of Seeing & Beyond Mere Seeing. https://read.cash/@reanbooks/painting-beauty-or-meaning-8fa332f1 https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/art-as-visual-music-the-importance-of-form-a040976f https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/practising-art-the-art-of-seeing-beyond-mere-seeing-a062694a @reanbooks have written about many other topics as well, for instance the history of his area, such as Back to the Ancients: My Territory And Its Beliefs and Watu Penawetengan: Place of Ritual and Beginning of Faith. https://read.cash/@reanbooks https://read.cash/@reanbooks/back-to-the-ancients-my-territory-and-its-beliefs-b126499d https://read.cash/@reanbooks/watu-penawetengan-place-of-ritual-and-beginning-of-faith-f433301c NFT marketplace is quietly collapsing, declares @xuanling11 – and I tend to agree. There are obvious problems with this concept that, at least for now, seem unsolvable. https://read.cash/@xuanling11/nft-marketplace-is-quietly-collapsing-976490be Half Truths Control Perspectives Which Are Most Important, claims @Bre, and she is right. Incorrect or incomplete knowledge leads to distorted perspectives and incorrect conclusions – and it is important to understand that. https://read.cash/@Bre/half-truths-control-perspectives-which-are-most-important-0170b7f8 Could Russia be the next Super Power, asks @nomadghada, and 'Of Savage Disposition' — Most People Don't Actually Want Peace says @VoluntaryJapan, and I tend to agree. https://read.cash/@nomadghada/could-russia-be-the-next-super-power-2a7fd38c https://read.cash/@VoluntaryJapan/of-savage-disposition-most-people-dont-actually-want-peace-374c428b For all football lovers here (and I know you are many), read Griezmann’s predicament by @HappyBoy - an article about football contracts. https://read.cash/@HappyBoy/griezmanns-predicament-39217a19 How do we learn to be with other people if we don't learn to be with ourselves? asks @gertu13; also read her Stealing is a bad habit. https://read.cash/@gertu13/your-space-your-time-60bb4e70 https://read.cash/@gertu13/stealing-is-a-bad-habit-66c51416 Never Be Afraid To Be Yourself, advises @Brilliance https://read.cash/@Brilliance/never-be-afraid-to-be-yourself-7eda6b7c @milaagrosramirez claims (and rightly so) that Discipline fundamental element to achieve anything in life. I have seen several articles on this theme over the years here, but it deserves to be repeated. https://read.cash/@milaagrosramirez https://read.cash/@milaagrosramirez/discipline-fundamental-element-to-achieve-anything-in-life-236f25b7 No one is talentless! claims @turuncu. But it requires persistence to develop a talent. https://read.cash/@turuncu/no-one-is-talentless-bde693b1 In Run the race but at your pace, @Tomi-Ajax discusses the process of learning. I quote: https://read.cash/@Tomi-Ajax/run-the-race-but-at-your-pace-fe4cf3a7 “*But what matters most isn't the time spent but achieving the goal. So remember to learn at your pace, you can get inspired by the actions of others, but don't compare.“* I would also recommend Learning wisely, by the same author. https://read.cash/@Tomi-Ajax/learning-wisely-e939c1f6 @Sydney2 writes about The Art of Romanticising Your Life, and I think the message she conveys is essential for a good life. https://read.cash/@Sydney2 https://read.cash/@Sydney2/the-art-of-romanticising-your-life-63ec7a0a In I am the captain of my soul!, @Amjad_Ali_Waincne claims that forgiveness is the best revenge. https://read.cash/@Amjad_Ali_Waince/i-am-the-captain-of-my-soul-1d9c305d @Jelena gives us Life changing quotes from the movie The Godfather. https://read.cash/@Jelena https://read.cash/@Jelena/life-changing-quotes-from-the-movie-the-godfather-902df172 Stay Caffeinated! says @curiouscat in an article I include because of my own interest in coffee. However, I don't think coffee is a suitable beverage for small children. https://read.cash/@curiouscat/stay-caffeinated-d3ee6ec8 https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#coffee-health-amp-history Allow me to quote a post by @remona - A Garden is more than plants, it feeds a soul. I like her approach to her garden. https://read.cash/@remona https://read.cash/@remona/a-garden-is-more-than-plants-it-feeds-a-soul-33d80086 *“[...] the garden is not just a place, it's where we heal our souls. Garden is what makes us happy, nature has the power to make us feel fulfilled."* Finally, an article that was posted just when I laid my last hand on this issue of “Suggested Reading”: The great competition, by @Alther . https://read.cash/@Alther/the-great-competition-4f518988 Read the whole series, ”Suggested Reading” and my series “Retrospection”. https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#suggested-reading https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#retrospection **In my** **INDEX****, you can find all my writings on Read.Cash, sorted by topic.** https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34 Copyright © 2022 Meleonymica/Mictorrani.
