You can watch her wonderful talks at Ted here one of them,

“but I learned from interviews that faith meant something else…….
Faith is a a place of mystery ,where we find the courage to believe in what we cannot see and the strength to let go of our uncertainty.
Also I discovered that it ‘s not always the scientists who struggle with faith and the religious who fully embrace uncertainty.Many forms of fundamentalism and extremism are about choosing certainty over faith.
……
We love closure,resolution and clarity,while thinking that we are people of ‘faith’ ! How strange that the very word ‘faith’ has come to mean its exact opposite.
Being is it equal energy+ information. Idon’t think so even with the notation from system thinking that the whole is grater than the sum of it’s parts. If I add the connections or relations with others through the time not yet convincing nor attracting .
Time, let me expand it through now and after death an infinite concept ,what is the difference .
That’s heavey thinking try to put some goals and seek to accomplish them then others and you be happy
Ok for now .
Mirroring with thinking.
I’m enjoying the company with Mihaly CSikzentmihaly Work although it’s about energy ,focusing attention to long term and short term goals seeking flow psychology or positivity states that make life more interesting even with it’s challenges . But,
Something in his World view that is not clear to me yet ,not the approach, will let the flow psychology in life resonate with me.
Like anything else that reall matters,relationships make us extremely happy when they go well,and very depressed when they don’t work out.People are the most flexible,the most changeable aspect of the environment we have to deal with .The same person can make the morning wonderful and the evening miserable.Because we depend so much on the affection and approval of others,we are extremely vulnerable to how we are treated by them.
Therfore a person who learns to get along with others is going to make a tremendous change for the better in the quality of life as whole.
It is the very flexibility of relationships that makes it possible to transform unpleasant interaction into tolerable ,or even exciting ones . How we define and interprete a social interaction makes a great difference on how people will treat each other ,and how they will fill while doing it.
Now me questioning
Is it common sense, or too ideal,or just a stupid problem solution format ?????
Another qoute from Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi Flow book
Accepting limitation is liberating .for example by making up one’s mind to invest psychic energy exclusively in a monogamous marriage,regardless of any problems,obstacles, or more attractive options that may come along later,one is freed of the constant pressure of trying to maximize emotional returns.
…….
A person no longer needs to worry whether she has made the right choice,or whether the grass might be greener somewhere else. AS a result agreat deel of energy gets freed up for living, instead of being spent on wondering about how to live .
………
If one decided to accept the form of the family,…….,it is important to consider beforehand how family life can be turned into a flow activity.because if it is not,boredom and frustration will inevitably set in….
My questions
Is it true that,it’s a matter of adjusting your energy ? And is it the way we see life and ourself ??? And why he refers to the (she )when reconsidering his abundance options

Changing Education Paradigms,
Democratic education,
Sudbury Valley School,
“Education and Instruction,” Leo Tolstoy, 1860
“Don’t be afraid! There will be Latin and rhetoric, and they will exist in another hundred years, simply because the medicine is bought, so we must drink it (as a patient said). I doubt whether the thoughts which I have expressed perhaps indistinctly, awkwardly, inconclusively, will become generally accepted in another hundred years; it is not likely that within a hundred years all those ready-made institutions-schools, gymnasia, and universities — will die, and that within that time there will grow freely formed institutions, having for their basis the freedom of the learning generation”
