HOW DOES COUNSELLING HELP?



I think counselling and other 'talk therapy' is a very important part of overcoming depression and problems. That's not to say that a specific form of counselling is the best, there are quite a few for people. It helps people's problems. Everybody has different problems so counselling can change to one to another. I think, it is so essential for being successful and happy in the life. If one feels bad ideas about her/his future, anything is worth a try for counselling. However, no amount of counseling will work if s/he is not compliant with the program. If s/he is willing to try it, there may be a chance of life working. But s/he has to understand that just going wiil not help. She must be willing to take the advice of the counselor. Sometimes in counseling, s/he has to take a hard look at herself/himself as well. There are some things that are just better not tell friends. Also, there is guaraantee that the speaking will be known only two of them. Nobody will know it. It is like speaking ourselves,but one sound from not in our body will say some special ways for the problems. You can do it for better life or you can choose do the same behaviours. It is your business, but having some special ways make you relax. It is wonderful. Of course, counselor has very important role in there. They are the professional listener. If counselling is carried out in a correct manner it would be done in a way that explains to the patient that there are ways to think to transend fear. Many therapy would help patients become more open minded and therefore strong to deal with day to day life better.

SYNESTHESIA



Synesthesia is the blending of the senses. Letters and sounds have color. Numbers have shape. Words have taste and for some Synesthetes, symbols have personalities. Is this really a neurological disorder? Some recognize synesthesia as a great leap in communication where individuals no longer have to rely on internal definitions and prejudices of words to understand meaning through language.
It is so interesting that a sort of a buzzing sound or something the letter A made a certain person hear every time they saw . I think it would be some kind of shape = sound synesthesia, but the fact that we have all been taught what the letter A is supposed to sound like does not mean it's synesthetic, it's just something that has been agreed on separately within every language that uses this alphabet. The sounds existed before the letters, the letters were just invited to ''describe'' those sounds, so if anything it would be sound = shape synesthesia.

And also, the general idea is that synesthesia is involuntary. I think, learning is voluntary. Besides, even if you tried to memorize the colors of numbers or letters, or their personalities, when asked to recall them you would be unable to do so perfectly . Synesthesia is a condition in which one sense ,for example hearing, is simultaneously perceived as if by one or more additional senses such as sight. Another form of synesthesia joins objects such as letters, shapes, numbers or people's names with a sensory perception such as smell, color or flavor. The word synesthesia comes from two Greek words, syn (together) and aisthesis (perception). Therefore, synesthesia literally means "joined perception." Synesthesia can involve any of the senses. The most common form, colored letters and numbers, occurs when someone always sees a certain color in response to a certain letter of the alphabet or number. For example, a synesthete ,a person with synesthesia, might see the word "PLANE" as mint green or the number "4" as dark brown.
As far as scientists can tell at this point in neurological studies, synesthesia comes about because two or more areas of the brain are not as isolated as they normally are, so that sensations from one area bleed over into another area, giving complex multi-sensory experiences from one input. When it comes to the philosophical significance, it really just means that your perceptual form of being aware of existence is different than most people. There is not a sound associated with texture, you actually experience a sound with certain textures, and that is just the way you experience the world. I am assuming it is rather consistent, in which case one had to learn to live with it as a malfunction of his/her senses, just as a blind man must learn how to adjust to being blind. I wouldn't say that perceive the world incorrectly, but rather that particular form of being aware of the world differs from most people.I don't think there is a cure for it at this point, but so long as you can distinguish actual sounds from your textual sounds, you can distinguish the texture of something in a different way. I believe that it is a god gift to some special people. Also, I want to be synesttet, too. It must be wonderful seeing colors while listening the music and having some special flavour.

The progressive technology brings many differences today’s world. One of these huge difference which reaches all the houses, is the internet. It is common on families, especially if there is a college student. However, there is not an agreement that it has a beneficial or damage effects on college students.

FRENCH REVOLUTION









French Revolution has still been affecting our life.Good aspects or bad aspects.When we look our environment we can see its affects.Can you see?Well, French Revolution spread to many countries. In addition, it brought out a lot of idelogies.For instance; nationalism... Everybody has understood different mean from French Revolution. It was good or bad? Which one?It can be seen good by many nationalities. On the other hand, it can be seen bad some of the countries which had many different nationalities society . But it is fact that, it is a milestone for the human rights. By being spread out to the whole world, it has changed the way people once lived. Imperialism is something that cannot be tolerated for the reasons that it restricted the human rights and give a chance for noble class to look down on other people and sponge on them. Except wars, in which practically thousands of people lost their lives, French Revolution has been the biggest step taken for the humans to live as human so far. Also, this was the first major revolution in western europe that came from the people against thier own royalty.
The point where so many things changed at once, was the French Revolution itself. A revolution starts when ones has a build up of pressure in a system. In the French Revolution's case, the death of Louis and the massive debt when he left behind was a major factor. I do not depend on this part of the Revolution, but it was a contributing factor. Actually, people were poor,hungry and oppressed and the king was spending loads money on jewelery and a nice capital building. Extremely, The French Revolution was mostly caused by the disputes between the different social classes in the French society and their ideas in which to control the government. The authorities of kings, priests and nobles were questioned during this time. Many new political meanings and ideas were introduced to the people, many which would later be useful. New political forces such as democracy and nationalism were developed because of the French Revolution.Thus, The French Revolution is seen one of the most important events in the history of the world. However, it is not forgotten that how it was a bloody,violent war. While many of them were living together with their lovely neighbours, they became enemy ro their friends because of their nationality's war!

Purpose of the School Education and How We Learn?












Meaning of the education can lead to many different ideas for all of us . Actually, It does not matter what it is. There is a general consideration that it is so important for future, now and was important in the past, too. It helps to bring people and the society together. It also builts bridges in a society between past and future. This helps to make mankind to become perfect and conciousness about realities.There are many different ways of learning. Teaching is only one of them. We learn a great deal on our own, at independent study or play. We learn a great deal interacting with others informally like sharing what we are learning with others. We learn a great deal by doing, through errors. Also, we leran that there is apprenticeship that learning how do something by trying it under the guidance of one who knows how. For example, one can learn more architecture by having to design and build one's own house than by taking any number of courses on the subject.In the educational process, students should be offered a wide variety of ways to learn, among which they could choose or with which they could experiment. They do not have to learn different things the same way. They should learn at a very early stage of "schooling" that learning how to learn with the help they seek but, that is not imposed on them. In addition,there must be techology in education while showing to students the knowledge. The other important in education that needs to be an ongoing process,i feel like this should be the most important goal.In concrete terms, the purpose of an education should be to prepare students for jobs that they will take when they enter the real world, ones that they can choose and ones that will put food on the table. Every child needs a solid background in reading, writing, math, etc., and teachers should try their best to foster a desire for learning to their students, but it is really most important that a student is powered to pick and choose which job they want; this could include pursuing a college degree or a technical education. They should be familiar with their strengths and weaknesses and learn how to use those to their advantage in the years of following school. While there should be minimum standards for what all children are required learn, education should ultimately lead to better self-awareness and a clear-cut path for success in the real world, in whatever form it takes for each person. I know while you are reading this you can think that in writing to say all of them is easy. But if we want to have a good future and perfect communication with peoples, countries in short that with humankind , we sould keep the education on the top.

WHICH IS MORE CLOSE TO LOVE TROUBLE OR HAPPINESS?













Some of us try to put the goal of love in the middle. It seems like a goal for many of us. And it seems to take too long and then we continue with another goal instead and love fails at mainly. But, our love have to be like what we see on tv or hear in music. Thus we need to show a perfect love for being happy. However time is not go like this. It does not care about us. We love any girl or boy and we are supposed that s/he will not go anywhere far away from us. Because we believe that there is only the man and "we". And of course things are never go like that. You can believe yourself but your partner behaviours are not controlled everytime and because of this many times love hurts us. While you imagine everyday him/her, you can see him/her with another girl or boy in a relationship. And this day is the your day which is signature to your new trouble life. You can not forgive him/her. Almost a hundred times asks yourself why why why why... or how? Actually we should not care it, If there is one who go away from us. However in the heart things are not live like this. Everyday you keep to think him while he makes lovely days with the other girl! Every second you think him/her that where are they and how they are feeling about each others? Tears are not far away from you in these days. You imagines that you are near him.And at that time this feeling is more atract us. Bad days do not leave from your homes for a long time in this process. When dates that you do not accept him/her invitation is now missed so much. However, you have a reasons that why did not accept him. Many reasons like culture, family, school related problem do not give opportunity to make a point. But you miss this day every minute in your live and invatation's happiness is not changed anything in the world for you. But its too late... Of course love does not fail everytime. The love does not only bring the trouble the sides. We can see how true love is lived by ours adults mainly. How they live together amongs the years. And maybe when we find the true boy or girl, we will understand the other was the wrong for us... maybe...

BEING CHILD!






We can observe that people seem braver when they are younger. Every idea could be showed easily. Especially being child brings a lot of quality against the small world. They have no fear, children are visionaries. They trust in their imagination and believe that whatever they can conceive, they can achieve it. In addition they can ask everytime without the idea of if there is wrong. Saying the faulties is not problem for them. Also, if they ever have a problem, they can always just run to mom , dad or grandmother , grandfather and one of them or all of them can mollfy it for children. What a beautiful life! :) This not the end. Morever,
All they worry about is how much time they will have to play outside or go shopping. They can have a lot of toys which are different each other.
It has no matter if they break down the toys because they know that the new one will be brought by their parent. While they are playing with the toys, they are also choosing the new character in every play. Because they are children which means what they want they can do or they can be!
In addition, they can eat everything what they want and almost every hour they have a eating time and this is the one of the biggest chance being the child! I have wanted to return my childhood again but it's too late...
