Emotions are not weaknesses or problems to suppress but signals to interpret. They are intelligent messengers designed to protect, inform, and guide you. Every emotion carries information about what matters most to you—your safety, values, relationships, and well-being. Why Do We Have Emotions? Emotions evolved through natural selection as a way to get humans to avoid things that would threaten their survival and approach things that would serve them. Fear prompts us to defend ourselves. Love motivates us to connect, nurture, and cooperate. Anger arises when something threatens our values or boundaries. In essence, emotions condense our judgment about what’s…

Well, except for the immigration laws and other laws that they don’t particularly care for (“ ‘No Kings’ rallies vs. Trump,” Oct. 19). How about the fact that President Trump was elected by the majority of votes per our election laws? Robert Leavy Middle Village The “No Kings” protests, funded by George Soros, are nothing more than a socialist movement with Antifa groups and a lot of unhinged people. This is…

In my earlier post on parallax cognition, I proposed that depth in thinking comes from contrast, not convergence.

Like binocular vision, depth requires a tangible and real separation. Now, this idea can demand an architectural corollary: structural separation. We’ve been told, perhaps even sold, that integration is progress and the future. And that process lies in seamless collaboration between human and machine. Okay, maybe. But I’m beginning to think that while the idea of unity might carry the stamp of logic, it misses…

Iran scrapped a deal to cooperate with the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog group on Monday, with the Islamic republic’s supreme leader taunting President Trump over claims that the US destroyed Tehran’s atomic program.
