The One and the Ninety-Nine: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion

Recently I came across the term neutral habit while looking up about the benefit of something.

Subjectively satisfying vs objectively good ways of value responding presented in the book, reminds me of that anchoring.

Truth, good and beauty reminded me of six great ideas book on philosphy by Adler.

Walking underneath the eucalyptus tree in the afternoon, I found bleached leaves on the soil and what a dead checkered butterfly (at that time I did not know its name) but I showed it to my friend and as we were walking on, I wondered if I should have taken a picture of it and I knew I would write about it but only should I let my writing speak of it or go back and take the picture. After few steps, I forgot about it but when my friend had to cut the walk short, I had an opportunity to go back to the scene and take a picture, wondering if the wind took the dead butterfly to an unfindable spot. With the pitcure in tow, I did not have to mention that the butterfly was dead. Like the author said, beauty makes a claim on us.
