Imagine that we are still living in the cave
we just need to use basic language that is concrete
where life and death is a coin toss
emotion is our main tool for survival
how appropriate it is.
We now live in the symbolic world
abstract world that enable progress that enable us to create something out of nothing
we ve come a long way
however, we are still using the emotion, the old tool
On top of that, we are now living where our perception can capture dynamic concrete and abstract world
however, we are still using symbols, a static analogue
like comparing books and video
where video can capture moving pictures and book must rely on language
so, our emotion and our language are insufficient to deal with the world
if you only have a hammer, everything is a nail
