Calculativity and/or common sence

  Calculativity and/or common sense can be discussed at length, as the understanding of these concepts can vary considerably. In our culture, we used to follow the simple instruction "give and get" and did not talk about charity or solidarity. This, of course, meant reciprocal mutual obligations, including favors at all levels of social ties. A practical example of such reciprocal reciprocity would be, for example, the requirement that if someone stays with us for free, we can stay with them for free. If someone has lunch with us for free, we expect to have lunch with them for free. If we give someone a gift on their holiday, we also expect to be given a gift on our holiday. If we have someone visiting us unannounced, then we also expect to be able to visit them unannounced. If se are always available to them, we also expect them to be always available to us.  I could find even more such examples, because it is a fact that we very quickly translate someone's unilateral be...

Preračunljivost in/ali zdrava pamet

  O preračunljivosti in/ali zdravi pameti lahko na dolgo razpravljamo, saj je razumevanje teh pojmov lahko precej različno. Včasih smo se v naši kulturi držali preprostega navodila "daj-dam" in nismo govorili ne o dobrodelnosti, ne o solidarnosti. To je seveda pomenilo recipročne vzajemne obveznosti, vključno z uslugami na vseh ravneh socialnih vezi. Praktičen primer takšne vzajemne recipročnosti bi bila na primer že kar zahteva, da če nekdo pri nas zastonj prebiva, lahko tudi mi pri njemu zastonj prebivamo. Če je nekdo pri nas zastonj na kosilu, tudi mi pričakujemo, da smo pri njih zastonj na kosilu. Če nekoga obdarimo ob njegovih praznikih, tudi mi pričakujemo obdaritev ob naših praznikih. Če imamo nekoga nenajavljenega na obisku, potem tudi mi pričakujemo, da lahko prihajamo na obisk k njemu nenajavljeni. Če nam je nekdo vedno na razpolago, tudi mi pričakujemo, da nam je tudi on vedno na razpolago. Takšnih primerov bi lahko našla še več, saj je dejstvo, da enostranske kori...

Priority of life

  Our life is long and throughout this long journey through life we usually set priorities in our lives. These priorities can be dreams about an educational and professional path from a young age all the way to personal priorities, or priorities of business and personal life. The priorities of our lives of course depend on the given and acquired opportunities to achieve a certain priority or goal of life. Some certainly have high goals, while others are satisfied with the achieved minimum goals. Of course, goals also depend on our dreams, which should have a realistic basis and, of course, realistic opportunities to realize dreams with the help of others. Some individuals succeed in realizing their priorities of life or dreams, while others fail. This is the case in all areas of our lives, including personal ones. "I created everything from scratch with my own hands, my brain and my work", is a very rare true statement, which also means a very narrow circle of people or a sma...
