Vale, vamos a desgranar esto. Hoy nos enfrentamos a lo que, bueno, probablemente sea la carga psicológica más silenciosa y pesada de nuestra eram hablo de la trampa de la comparación moderna. Hoy en día, esa sensación persistente de no ser suficiente, eh, de ir siempre un paso por detrás del resto del mundo parece casi universal. Totalmente. Da la impresión de que sin importar el esfuerzo o los logros que uno vaya acumulando, la línea de meta siempre se aleja un poco más. se desplaza constantemente. Sí, exacto. Así que para entender exactamente de dónde viene esta frustración estructural y lo más importante, cómo escapar de ella, hoy vamos a realizar un análisis a fondo de un material que la verdad yo considero realmente revelador y lo es sin duda. Se trata de un extracto clave del influyente libro 12 reglas para vivir del psicólogo Jordan B. Peterson. En concreto, nos vamos a sumergir de lleno en la regla número cuatro, la de compararse con quién uno era. Esa misma la premisa dice literalmente, compárate con quién eras ayer, no con quién otro es hoy. Y la misión de este inmersión de hoy es desarticular el mecanismo. Claro. La misión de este análisis a fondo es desarticular desde la raíz toda esa mecánica psicológica y neurológica que empuja a la mente de forma casi inevitable hacia la envidia y la insatisfacción. Eso es. Queremos explorar cómo la propia percepción visual miente constantemente, literalmente como el cerebro censura al mundo que nos rodea y a partir de ahí trazar un plan de escape utilizando lo que el texto llama el interés compuesto del progreso personal. Es un texto fascinante porque entrelaza, a ver, entrelaza la biología evolutiva con la psicología clínica, pero al final ofrece herramientas increíblemente pragmáticas para reorganizar el día a día. Muy pragmáticas, sí. Nada de conceptos abstractos, inalcanzables. Ya. Y para que quede claro desde el principio que este no es el típico análisis predecible y aburrido. Vamos a adelantar que la clave maestra para entender toda esta frustración diaria incluye a un gorila invisible. Un gorila, sí. Y a un mimo cantando la canción Endless Love con un par de manoplas de horno puestas. Suena a locura absoluta. Madre mía, suena a delirio total. Pero prometo a quien nos esté escuchando que es una conexión que tiene todo el sentido del mundo cuando se examina de cerca. Lo tiene, lo tiene. Para empender el síndrome del héroe local. Las fuentes explican que la psiqui humana no evolucionó para el mundo en el que vivimos hoy. Claro, el desfase evolutivo. Eso es. Antiguamente, cuando la inmensa mayoría de la población vivía en entornos rurales, en tribus o en pueblos pequeños, destacar en algo era una meta estadísticamente razonable. Había un rey del baile local, una genio de las matemáticas en la escuela de la comarca o el mecánico estrella del pueblo al que todos respetaban. Estas personas eran los héroes locales y sus cerebros recibían una recompensa biológica constante por ello. Y esa recompensa biológica es fundamental para entender el problema real de hoy. No estamos hablando de una simple palmadita en la espalda a nivel social. No, no estamos hablando de neuroquímica pura, específicamente de la serotonina. El cerebro humano poseae en su base una especie de digamos calculadora ancestral, una calculadora de estatus, ¿verdad? Exacto. Es un sistema de control maestro muy antiguo a nivel evolutivo que evalúa de forma ininterrumpida nuestra posición en la jerarquía social local. Ya cuando esta calculadora percibe que el entorno valora a un individuo que es competente y respetado en su comunidad, pues libera serotonina. Este neurotransmisor es el que hace que uno se sienta seguro, permite caminar erguido, reduce la ansiedad y aporta una sensación de calma existencial. Y el sistema funcionaba a la perfección porque el grupo de control era pequeño. Claro, de unas 100 o 200 personas como máximo. Pero a ver, siendo justos, y yo creo que esto es algo que mucha gente se preguntará, ¿no? Es esa presión evolutiva por competir y destacar algo útil. Es decir, si el ser humano no se comparara con los mejores de su entorno y no sintiera esa punzada de envidia o ambición, quizá la especie seguiría viviendo en las cavernas. Fíjate que esa es una distinción crucial. La competencia es el motor del progreso. Sin duda alguna. El texto no ataca la competencia en sí. El problema no es la brújula, ¿vale? El problema es que hemos introducido esa brújula en un campo magnético artificial enorme que la ha vuelto completamente loca. Y ahí es donde el contraste moderno resulta devastador. El mundo hiperconectado, eso es la migración masiva a las grandes urbes y sobre todo la omnipresencia de internet han erradicado esa paz local. Las jerarquías sociales en las que el cerebro intenta competir ya no son pirámides de tamaño humano, son inabarcables. Ahora son como un rayo láser hiperconectado que abarca el planeta entero. Pensemos en alguien joven que tiene un talento excepcional tocando la guitarra. Un genio de uno entre un millón. Exactamente. Históricamente este chaval habría sido la leyenda absoluta de su región. Hoy, al abrir una red social, descubre en 3 segundos que es solo uno más entre 50 prodigios idénticos o incluso superiores. Es brutal. La escala de la competencia ha mutado de una forma que esa calculadora de serotonina simplemente no puede procesar y por defecto ante esa inmensidad el cerebro nos sitúa en el fondo de la jerarquía global. Claro, el estanque se ha vuelto tan inmenso que todos nos sentimos como Plankoncton. Tal cual como Plankton. Y el texto señala que esta hiperconexión con es básicamente la gasolina perfecta para una voz crítica destructiva que todos albergamos. Ese crítico interno se alimenta de esta exposición global y vaya si se alimenta. Nos convence de que la vida es un juego de suma cero. Si alguien en el otro extremo del mundo tiene éxito, nosotros somos unos fracasados. Nos susurra que la mediocridad absoluta es nuestro estado natural. Sí, anula cualquier victoria. Porque como ahora mismo es posible encontrar en internet a alguien más rico, más atractivo, más en forma o más inteligente, De forma instantánea, cualquier logro personal que requerió meses de sudor parece repentinamente minúsculo. Es una dinámica verdaderamente demoledora. Lo fascinante aquí es como la psicología social reciente intentó lidiar con este colapso de la autoestima y cómo el autor del texto destroza esa supuesta solución. Ah, sí, la parte de las ilusiones. Eso es. Durante décadas, muchos expertos recomendaron la creación de lo que llamaban ilusiones positivas. La primisa era que, como la realidad objetiva de no ser el mejor del mundo, nada. Era demasiado dolorosa. La gente debía proteger su ego cultivando una autoimagen artificialmente inflada. Vamos a autoengañarse. Básicamente aconsejaban refugiarse bajo el paraguas de una mentira reconfortante para no colapsar psicológicamente. El análisis que estamos abordando rechaza esta idea de forma categórica y con razón. Argumenta que es una filosofía profundamente pesimista y cínica, ya que asume que la realidad es tan intrínicamente insoportable que la única forma de habitarles mediante la ficción. Claro, es que vivir en una ficción para soportar el peso del mundo no genera ninguna resiliencia, genera una fragilidad extrema ante cualquier fracaso real. Es equivalente a intentar curar una fractura de hueso tomando analgésicos y fingiendo que el hueso no está roto. Absolutamente. Ahora bien, si ese juego de la comparación, tal y como está montado hoy en día, es una trampa mortal y siempre se termina perdiendo, la gran pregunta que surge es bastante lógica. ¿Porque seguimos jugando? Exacto. ¿Por qué la mente humana se empeña en seguir jugando. ¿Por qué seguimos intentando medirnos con ese rayo láser global? Aquí es donde el texto introduce un cambio de paradigma total. Y es que simplemente estamos midiendo mal la estructura misma de la realidad. Caemos en la ilusión del tablero único. Eso es efectivamente ese crítico interno del que hablabas prospera gracias a la ilusión del juego único. Consigue convencernos de que la existencia es una sola competición unidimensional y lineal, donde el éxito se mide bajo un solo criterio. mente el poder adquisitivo, la fama o el estatus en redes sociales. Pero la realidad empírica es que la vida es una enorme multiplicidad de facetas. Hay infinidad de juegos disponibles en los que participar. Incontables. Existe el juego de ser una figura legal implacable, el juego de ser un artesano que restaura muebles antiguos o el juego de ser alguien volcado en la enseñanza. La gran ventaja evolutiva de esta multiplicidad es que si alguien fracasa estrepitosamente en una disciplina o descubre que esa dinámica le resulta tóxica, siempre conserva la libertad absoluta de cambiar de tablero y probar en otro ecosistema diferente. O mejor aún, como plantea la fuente, si uno no encuentra un juego en el que encaje, tiene la capacidad realmente nuevo. Y ahí es donde entra tu ejemplo favorito. Totalmente. Aquí es donde entra el ejemplo más surrealista de todo el material. Relata la anécdota de un concurso de talentos local donde apareció un participante haciendo de mimo. Pero no un mimo cualquiera. No, no, no era la típica Imitación aburrida en una plaza. Era un mimo meticulosamente caracterizado al estilo del legendario Marcel Marshow. El individuo sube al escenario, se sella la boca con cinta adhesiva plateada y con una seriedad pasmosa se enfunda dos gruesas manoplas de horno en las manos. Es una imagen tremenda. Acto seguido, utiliza esas manoplas de cocina a modo de marionetas para interpretar un dúo increíblemente dramático y sincronizado de la famosa balada Endless Love. Es visualmente absurdo, completamente absurdo. Pero encierra una lección vital. Cuando la originalidad es radicalmente individual y peculiar, el ser humano se sale del sistema de clasificación habitual. Es imposible comparar a ese individuo porque nadie más en el planeta Tierra estaba compitiendo en la categoría de mimos dramáticos cantando baladas con accesorios de cocina. Es una anécdota cómica, pero el trasfondo analítico es verdaderamente brillante. Demuestra que la hiperespecialización y la individualidad son antílotos directos contra la homogeneización del estatus global. Claro, te sales de la Exacto. Para aterrizar esto en la vida de una persona que nos pueda estar escuchando mientras va a la oficina o mientras hace la compra, el texto propone sustituir la visión de la vida como una carrera de 100 m lisos por la de un decatlón completo. Un Decathlon, esa es una alagogía estupenda. Una evaluación holística y madura de la existencia implica equilibrar múltiples frentes: el desarrollo profesional, la estabilidad familiar, la lealtad a las amistades, el compromiso con las aficiones, la salud mental y física. Son muchas pistas de atletismo a la vez. En un Decathlon, lo estadísticamente normal es ser sobresaliente en el lanzamiento de jabalina, mediocre en el salto de longitud y bastante torpe en la carrera de vallas. Nadie es perfecto en todas y cada una de las disciplinas. Y el problema fundamental es que el crítico interno hace trampa en esta competición. Lo que hace es aislar una sola de esas disciplinas del Decathlon, digamos, el éxito financiero. Luego escoge al mejor atleta del mundo en esa disciplina hiperespecífica y nos golpea en la cara con la comparación directa. y omite todo el contexto. Esa estrella inalcanzable a la que el crítico interno obliga a admirar podría estar liderando una empresa multimillonaria. Sí, pero al mismo tiempo podría estar atravesando un divorcio sumamente destructivo o sufriendo un aislamiento crónico o lidiando con adicciones severas. Es el clásico error de comparar los propios bastidores que están llenos de cables sueltos, improvisaciones y tomas falsas con la película final de la vida de los demás. Una película perfectamente evitada, iluminada y con banda sonor épica. Y aquí es donde la cosa se pone realmente interesante, fíjate, porque el autor da un salto vertiginoso desde la filosofía y la psicología social y nos sumerge de lleno en la neurofisiología de la visión. Esto es fascinante. Básicamente nos explica cómo nuestros propios ojos participan de forma activa en esta trampa de la comparación. Y para ilustrarlo, recupera el legendario experimento del gorila invisible, el de Daniel Simmons, el mismo, diseñado por el psicólogo cognitivo Daniel Simons. Para quien no lo conozca, el experimento consiste en un vídeo donde aparecen seis personas en una sala pequeña. Tres de ellas llevan camisetas blancas impolutas y las otras tres llevan camisetas negras. Y se están moviendo. Sí, se mueven de forma caótica en círculo pasándose un par de balones de baloncesto. La instrucción que se da a los espectadores antes de darle al play es directa y engañosamente simple. Les dicen, "Cuenten exactamente cuántos pases hace el equipo de la camiseta blanca e ignoren los pases del equipo de negro. Una tarea de atención selectiva clásica. La gente se concentra profundamente, sigue los balones con la mirada y al terminar el vídeo, la inmensa mayoridad da la respuesta correcta, que suele ser 15 pases. Pero el clímax del experimento llega inmediatamente después. Exacto. Cuéntalo tú porque es increíble. El investigador felicita a los participantes por su excelente nivel de atención y con total naturalidad les hace una segunda pregunta. Les dice, "¿Y qué opinan del gorila?" Y la gente se queda en blanco. La reacción general es de desconcierto absoluto. La de los participantes asegura tajantemente que no había ningún gorila en el vídeo, pero al reproducir el material por segunda vez, ahora sin la tarea de contar los pases, el resultado es sobrecogedor. Aparece de la nada. Justo en el segundo 25 del vídeo, una persona disfrazada con un traje de gorila de cuerpo entero entra caminando lentamente en la escena, atraviesa el grupo de jugadores, se detiene justo en el centro de la pantalla, se golpea el pecho mirando fijamente a la cámara y sale caminando por el lado opuesto. Es que está ahí un buen rato. Permanece en escena casi 10 segundos y un asombroso 50% de los observadores no registra su presencia en absoluto la primera vez. Es escalofriante pensar que algo tan enorme y tan absolutamente fuera de lugar pueda ser borrado de nuestra percepción de esa manera. Para quienes no superan la prueba, yo he leído que las sensaciones de incredulidad total llegan a pensar que les han cambiado la cinta por otra diferente en el segundo visionado. Yo quedé sorprend la primera vez que vi los datos. Si conectamos esto con el panorama general de nuestro análisis de hoy, la revelación científica es de una importancia colosal. El fenómeno se denomina ceguera por falta de atención sostenida. Ceguera por falta de atención o como se acuñó en rigurosos estudios alemanes sobre la percepción, el término es halalten de un ofxamites blind. Madre mía, con el alemán. Sí, impronunciable. Pero lo que esta condición demuestra, sin lugar a dudas, es que la visión humana no es una cámara de vídeo que graba pasiva y objetivamente el mundo. El sistema visual es una herramienta metabólicamente carísima. Gasta mucha energía. Procesar información visual en alta resolución requiere una cantidad enorme de recursos cerebrales. Para no colapsar y evitar morir de agotamiento, el cerebro funciona como un depredador. Literalmente solo vemos aquello a lo que apuntamos de forma activa y todo lo demás se descarta, se censura, se borra proactivamente para ahorrar recursos. El gorila negro se confunde con las camisetas negras que el cerebro tenía la orden estricta. de ignorar. O sea, que el acto de ver no consiste simplemente en abrir los ojos y recibir luz, sino en filtrar el 99% de la realidad. Vemos estrictamente lo que valoramos o lo que perseguimos en un momento determinado. Así es. Y las implicaciones vitales de este mecanismo fisiológico son formidables. Si el objetivo supremo de una persona está distorsionado por esa comparación global tóxica de la que hablábamos antes, digamos, si su meta es alcanzar el estatus prefabricado de un magnate de internet, su cerebro ajusta sus filtros visuales para rastrear solo esas métricas. Exactamente. Como consecuencia, esa persona se vuelve fisiológicamente ciega a las oportunidades reales de mejora que tiene a su alcance. Se vuelve ciega a las relaciones significativas que la rodean o a sus propios talentos innatos. Pasa el gorila y no lo ve. Esa ceguera no es un fallo del cerebro. Es la máquina funcionando perfectamente según los parámetros que se le han introducido. Por lo tanto, la conclusión lógica y radical de todo esto es que para cambiar lo que vemos en el mundo tenemos que intervenir de raíces nuestros sistemas de valores. Tonina, sí, que la vida es en realidad un decatlón de múltiples facetas y que nuestros ojos editan la realidad en tiempo real basándose en nuestras metas. ¿Cómo se desactiva al crítico interno en el día a día? ¿Cuál es el plan de acción concreto que propone el material original? La respuesta central, el verdadero antídoto de la regla número cuatro, exige un cambio drástico de métrica. Implica desconectar por completo la vista de los resultados de los demás y establecer al propio yo del ayer como el único estándar de válido y legítimo. Compárate con quién eras ayer. Eso es es un reajuste completo de la mira del francotirador interno. El texto insiste en que al principio es imperativo apuntar muchísimo más bajo. Apuntar bajo. Hay que deconstruir esa ambición grandiosa y aplastante que nos paraliza ante la inmensidad del internet y transformarla en metas minúsculas, casi ridículamente manejables. Para visualizar esto, recuerdo que el material utiliza una metáfora excelente. Propone analizar la propia existencia como si fuera una casa que necesita reformas urgentes. Una gran metáfora. La reacción natural que está alimentada por ese crítico interno global es sentarse en medio del caos, mirar las revistas de decoración de lujo, desesperarse porque la casa no es una mansión espectacular en la costa y como resultado no hacer absolutamente nada. Parálisis por análisis. Totalmente. El enfoque diametralmente opuesto que se propone es levantarse, buscar el rincón más pequeño y manejable de esa casa en y preguntar a ver qué cosa concreta, por minúscula que sea, puedo limpiar o arreglar hoy que esté bajo mi control inmediato. Cosas bajo control, muy importante. Puede ser algo tan mundano como ordenar la montaña de cartas que lleva un mes sobre la mesa, hacer la cama al levantarse o reparar esa bisagra de un armario de la cocina que lleva 6 meses atascada. Y es vital detenernos aquí para entender por qué esto funciona desde un punto de vista psicológico y neurológico. Porque, no nos equivoquemos, es Esto no es un simple consejo de bricolaje motivacional, no, no es ordenar el cuarto y ya está. Hay un concepto germánico fascinante que captura esta esencia. La palabra es tagwk. Tagwork no se traduce simplemente como trabajo. Se refiere a la labor diaria y concreta que justifica tu día, a la artesanía de lo cotidiano. No se trata de construir una catedral gótica en 24 horas, sino de tallar tu pequeño bloque de piedra hoy. Y encajarlo bien. Eso es. Cuando alguien repara esa bisagra rota del armario, no. Solo está arreglando un trozo de madera y metal. Esa puerta atascada actuaba como un microestresón silencioso en su vida. Es verdad. Cada mañana, al intentar abrirla para coger una taza y notar la resistencia, el cerebro registraba un pequeño fallo, una minúscula derrota que drenaba una fracción de dopamina. Al arreglarla, se elimina un obstáculo físico y se inyecta una microdosis de orden en el sistema nervioso. Se trata de tomar las riendas de 500 de estas pequeñas decisiones diarias. Son esas microvictorias las que empiezan a silenciar de verdad al crítico interno, porque de repente ya no estás compitiendo contra un multimillonario de la tecnología que sale en una portada, estás compitiendo contra tu propia inercia de ayer y estás ganando. Exactamente. Y el resultado de encadenar estas microvictorias es lo que podríamos llamar el interés compuesto de la psicología. Su pequeño ecosistema un 1% mejor de lo que lo encontró por la mañana. Los resultados se acumulan matemáticamente. Es una bola de nieve. Una mejora diaria sostenida durante 3 años. No produce un cambio lineal, produce una transformación exponencial que vuelve una vida completamente irreconocible. Además, hay un corolario hermoso a todo esto. A ver, a medida que la persona mejora su entorno inmediato y su salud mental se estabiliza, su base se vuelve más sólida. Desde esa base más alta, los objetivos que se plantea se elevan de forma natural y orgánica, sin la angustia previa. Y recordando la lección fisiológica del goril invisible, como nuestra visión rastrea aquello que valoramos al establecer metas más sanas y progresivas, las oportunidades en En el mundo exterior comienzan a materializarse. Claro, la ceguera desaparece gradualmente, los filtros se ajustan. Es como conducir un coche de noche en medio de una tormenta con el parabrisas lleno de barro. Arreglar la bisagra del armario es como encender los limpiaparabrisas por primera vez. Muy buena imagen. De repente te das cuenta de que la carretera no era tan recta ni tan estrecha como parecía y que había multitud de desvíos y caminos panorámicos que antes eran literalmente invisibles bajo la suciedad. Es un cambio de paradigma absoluto en la forma de vivir totalmente. Bueno, para ir recogiendo todo lo que hemos puesto sobre la mesa, creo que la inmersión profunda de hoy nos deja lecciones tremendamente sólidas. Yo estoy seguro de que sí. Hemos arrancado analizando el peligro neurológico de esa jerarquía global moderna, ese rayo láser de internet que atrofia nuestro sistema de recompensas y nos hace sentir insignificantes ante el mundo. Luego hemos encontrado una vía de escape al comprender que la existencia no es un examen tipo test con una sola respuesta correcta, es un decathlon vasto y con complejo donde siempre existe la posibilidad de bueno, de inventar reglas propias como nuestro amigo el mismo, el mismo de las manoplas. Hemos diseccionado la asombrosa mecánica del goril invisible, descubriendo que nuestros ojos funcionan como cazadores implacables que solo nos muestran el trofeo que hemos decidido buscar. Y finalmente hemos trazado el mapa de salida, la táctica innegociable del interés compuesto, asumiando la labor diaria del Tabwork y utilizando únicamente al yo de ayer como el único juez legítimo de nuestro avance. Al final, el hilo conductor que une todas estas disciplinas, la biología, la psicología, la neurología, es una conclusión profundamente empoderadora sobre nuestro papel en el mundo. El análisis demuestra que no somos meros receptores pasivos de información. No somos víctimas. No, no somos víctimas de un entorno hostil. Somos constructores activos de la realidad. La arquitectura misma de nuestra percepción se moldea en base a dónde decidimos enfocar nuestra atención y nuestra voluntad cada día. Y para cerrar Queremos proponer un pensamiento final para dejar macerando en la mente de quien nos escuche una reflexión expansiva basada estrictamente en esa cruda realidad biológica de la visión que acabamos de explorar. Adelante. Pensemos profundamente en esto. Si el propio cerebro humano censura activamente el entorno recortando y borrando enormes porciones de la realidad para proyectar únicamente aquello que encaja con nuestras ambiciones o miedos actuales, entonces experimentar el mundo como un lugar asfixiante oscuro y plagado de competidores imbatibles, no es un reflejo preciso de la realidad objetiva, no es una verdad inamovible del universo. Plantea una hipótesis fascinante. Sugiere que esa sensación de agobio existencial es simplemente la evidencia técnica de que el motor de búsqueda interno de nuestro cerebro está operando con las palabras clave equivocadas. Así es. ¿Qué pasaría si el simple y silencioso acto de decidir valorar el progreso personal por encima del estatus social ajeno tuviera la capacidad real de alterar la forma física tangible y palpable del mundo que se despliega ante nosotros cada mañana al despertar. Si cambiar la meta interna revela la existencia de inmensos gorilas invisibles, cuántas oportunidades latentes, cuánta belleza oculta y cuántos caminos inexplorados están justo ahora cruzando por delante, esperando pacientemente a que se deje de vigilar la vida del vecino para poder volverse reales. Es algo que merece mucha reflexión. Muchísima. Gracias por acompañar este análisis a fondo. Ha sido un recorrido intelectual espectacular por los mecanismos más profundos de nuestra propia mente. Hasta la próxima inmersión.
La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Delivered by Christine Gunawan from the Parish of Saint Joseph Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Pontianak, Indonesia. Isaiah 42: 1-7; Rs psalm 27: 1.2.3.13-14; John 12: 1-11.ENDLESS LOVE Our meditation today is entitled: Endless Love. Whatdoes an endless love mean? When Jesus was dining with his close friends, awoman named Mary, according to theGospel of John did something that only love can do. She took the most valuabletreasure she had and used it only for the Lord Jesus Christ. A sincere and genuine love does not use calculations.Mary's love to Jesus is an endless love. What she did to Jesus was based on herlove and gratitude to Him who bestowed an endless love too on her and herfamily. God of mercy empowered her, strengthened her faith and presented her asa model of faith to others. Mary did an act of love that should not be made inpublic by a Jewish woman. She let her long hair loose in front of Jesus andseen by many present. She washed Jesus's feet with her tears. According to thecustomary rules, a woman on her wedding day must tie and cover her hair. Sowhat Mary did at that moment was prohibited by law. Meanwhile, a married womanwho let hair loose in public to be seen was a very bad sign and considered asinner. Mary's action certainly annoyed everyone around herexcept the Lord Jesus. But she did not care about the reactions of those peoplepresent. She just wanted to express her pure love for the Lord. In humility shebent down to anoint Jesus' feet and wiped them with her long hair. What Mary'sdid to Jesus indeed gives us a message, namely, to remind us on how many timeshave we shown our greatest form of gratitude and love to God! The perfume oil that she used to anoint Jesus, madethe entire house filled with fragrance (Jn 12.3). Those present and the houseitself were all made fragrant and pleased both physically and spiritually. Onlyan endless love can do this act. This is enough to illustrate that any womanand man can do some great acts love to the Lord Jesus Christ like what Maryfrom Bethany did. It is not impossible for any of us to do such love in anysituation and context. Jesus Christ always gives us an example to share anendless love. In this holy week we will find ourselves in moments of ponderingand meditating His acts of love. Today we are given the image of Jesus theservant of God, who was willing to suffer like a bruised reed or a fadedsmoldering wick, but He would not be broken or faded away. He will still upholdthe law of justice and truth on earth. His love lasts forever on this earth.Jesus will not disappear or finish just by undergoing suffering and dying. Heactually, goes through all this and continues to live in all of us Hisfollowers. Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord Jesus Christ, teach and strengthenus to always be able to endure the difficulties and sufferings that confrontus, even when we have to sacrifice our lives. Our Father who art in heaven...In the name of the Father ...

Well, Fly Me to the Moon! Is Baconsale doing another episode about Unforgettable romantic tunes? Yes, we are, and we're doing it with Open Arms. However, this time we examined VH1's list of Endless Love songs and put them in a tournament to see which Unchained Melody will win At Last. Is Your Song on the bracket? Even if it is, just Breathe, and remember that while it may be a favorite In Your Eyes, it may not do so Wonderful Tonight. On the other hand, Maybe I'm Amazed how far some iconic tracks will go. But no matter what happens, just remember that You Are So Beautiful, I Will Always Love You, and My Heart Will Go On. How Deep Is Your Love? Well, press play, Babe, because I Don't Want to Miss a Thing. Also, You Don't Bring Me Flowers, but you still can visit Baconsale.com to download this bracket and find our official Spotify playlist of songs that are Always on My Mind.
As we look back on 15 years of Breakfast radio, we had to revisit some classic trainwreck moments like dragging Dami Im’s husband Noah into singing Endless Love with us (and loving every awkward second) and our legendary parody of Macklemore’s Can’t Hold Us!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week we officially close the book on Nicolas Cage and open the door to our next cinematic obsession: Tom Cruise. We talk about why he's the natural successor for our watch‑a‑thon, what makes him such a fascinating screen presence, and how we're tackling his filmography from the very beginning.We also dive into Stranger Things. The characters, the themes, and how the show evolved across four seasons - before taking a quick look back at our January watchlists to see what actually stuck with us.Plus, we debut our first ever Short Short Film Film Review, kicking things off with The Second Time Around (2025). And to start the Cruise journey properly, we revisit his blink‑and‑you‑miss‑it debut in Endless Love (1981).Movies, TV, short films, and the start of a brand‑new actor deep dive. We really cram it in this week.
January usually arrives with empty bank accounts, long emails and the emotional hangover of December. Romance? Not so much. For Stacey Norman, this year's first month flipped the script completely, delivering a moment so magical it left colleagues, friends and listeners misty-eyed. Even J Sbu couldn't believe the timing. “Who has the audacity in January to go down on one knee?” he joked. Yet, while most of us are still recovering financially and emotionally, Stacey's now fiancé, Dylan MacDonald, decided this was exactly the right moment to change their lives forever. A date night with suspicious hints It all started with what sounded like a simple plan: a fancy dinner to mark the end of the holidays before work kicked off again. However, there were hints. Nails. Hair. Dressing up properly. For someone who proudly calls herself the “Nancy Drew of KZN”, Stacey noticed everything. “Men can lie, but they can't keep a secret,” she laughed, explaining how Dylan and her best friend Filipe were both unusually invested in her grooming. Still, after years of heartbreak and what she openly calls “questionable choices”, Stacey chose not to overthink it. The moment everything changed Dinner was at the Oyster Box, the same place where their love story began on their very first date. Already emotional, Stacey returned from a quick break to find a singer performing “Endless Love”. Her internal alarm bells went wild. Dylan's calm response to her panic? “Do you trust me?” Instead of heading to a familiar bar, they were guided through a hidden garden, past a pool Stacey didn't even know existed. Then she saw it: a candlelit gazebo, rose petals underfoot and a moment that felt completely unreal. Tears, nerves and the easiest yes Both of them were crying when Dylan dropped to one knee, steady and certain. Whatever speech he had planned melted away, replaced by words that landed straight in Stacey's heart. He asked her to marry him. Her first response, perfectly Stacey? “What did you say?” She wanted to hear it again. And then she said yes. Close friends were quietly watching, capturing a moment Stacey never thought would come. After years of waiting, doubting and healing, she finally got her forever.
pWotD Episode 3166: Diana Ross Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 250,006 views on Thursday, 1 January 2026 our article of the day is Diana Ross.Diana Ross (born March 26, 1944) is an American singer and actress. Known as the "Queen of Motown", she was the lead singer of the vocal group the Supremes, who became Motown's most successful act during the 1960s and one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. They remain the best-charting female group in history, with a total of 12 number-one pop singles on the U. S. Billboard Hot 100.Following her departure from the Supremes in 1970, Ross embarked on a successful solo career with the release of her eponymous debut solo album. Between 1972 and 1980, Ross recorded four top ten albums with her most successful studio release being the album Diana. In a fifteen-year span, Ross recorded twelve top ten singles with six -- "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "Touch Me in the Morning", "Theme from Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To)", "Love Hangover", "Upside Down" and "Endless Love"— topping the Billboard Hot 100, making her the female solo act with the most number-one songs in the United States at the time. Ross achieved international success with later songs such as "I'm Coming Out", "Chain Reaction", "If We Hold on Together", and "When You Tell Me That You Love Me".Ross has also achieved mainstream success and recognition as an actress. Her first role was her Golden Globe Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated portrayal of Billie Holiday in the film Lady Sings the Blues (1972), which made her the first African-American actress to receive an Academy Award nomination for a debut film performance. The film's soundtrack became her only solo album to reach number-one on the U. S. Billboard 200 chart. She also starred in two other feature films, Mahogany (1975) and The Wiz (1978), and later appeared in the television films Out of Darkness (1994), for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award, and Double Platinum (1999).Ross was named the "Female Entertainer of the Century" by Billboard in 1976. Since her solo career began in 1970, Ross has sold over 100 million records worldwide. Between 1964 and 1981, Ross sang on eighteen number one US singles. In 2021, Billboard ranked her the 30th greatest charting artist of all time on the Billboard Hot 100. Her hits as a Supreme and a solo artist combined put Ross among the top-five artists on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart from 1955 to 2018. She has scored a top 75 U. K. hit single for a record 33 consecutive years (1964–1996). In 1988, Ross was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Supremes, and is one of the rare performers to have two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She is the recipient of a Special Tony Award in 1977, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2007, the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012 and 2023 (becoming the first woman to win the award twice, the latter as a member of the Supremes), and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:27 UTC on Friday, 2 January 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Diana Ross on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Geraint.
La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Delivered by Enge Kristina from the Congregation Community of Aloysius Gonzaga in the Diocese of Surabaya, Indonesia. 1 John 1: 1-4; Rs psalm 97: 1-2.5-6.11-12; John 20: 2-8.DEEP AND ENDLESS LOVE The title for ourmeditation today is: Deep and Endless Love. Today we celebrate the feast ofSaint John, the apostle and the author of the fourth Gospel. The Gospels tellus that John was the younger brother of the apostle James and Jesus called bothof them when they were with their father Zebedee at the Lake of Galilee. Johnalways appeared together with two other important apostles Peter and James to accompanyJesus in his public works. As we are still inthe spirit of Christmas, besides we are introduced to the profile of the crossas the way to participate in Christ and to achieve glory, we also are taught toobtain the glory of God's kingdom through a deep and unending love that wepractice. We can say that the true love is really associated with Saint Johnthe apostle. The very reason for this is that the gospel he wrote containsprofound teachings on love. For example, the teachings on the bread of life andthe good shepherd, for us are the teachings with much and profoundsingnificance on the love of God. Another reason theGospel of today shows is that John is the first of the apostles and disciplesof Jesus who understood and believed in Jesus' resurrection. His love for Jesuswas so deep that even under difficult and uncertain circumstances his understandingand faith in God never diminished. The particularity of the apostle John isrevealed in the Fourth Gospel that this apostle is the most loved by JesusChrist. This is a very strong and meaningful caracter, because he himself wroteit in his Gospel. A more acceptableopinion is that with a person who is mostly loved by the Lord but whose properidentity is not explained, it is intended to signify all the followers ofChrist: whether apostles or disciples, male or female, whether young and adult,whether educated or uneducated, whether parents or children, these areindividuals who are loved by the Lord. This means, I am personally loved by Jesus.You are also loved by Jesus personally. He also personally receives love from Jesus.Everyone basically has the right to be loved by the almighty God. It is truly wonderfulto experience the love of God given to every one of us: poured out perfectly,endures forever, and an unconditional one. The important thing is that lovecomes into your personal life and mine. When every one in every consciousnessrecognizes being loved in this manner, he or she is actually experiencing the truelove. In this Christmas season, may we be ready to receive that love from Godmore than usual, precisely at the moment with Jesus and the family of Nazarethwho live in the fullness of the love of God. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O most loving Jesus Christ and the family of Nazareth, we want to live inyour peaceful and joyful family moments, so grant us this grace. Glory to theFather and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father ...

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we confront the horrific attack at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. The shooter, Robert “Robin” Westman, once walked those same halls as a student. Years of unchecked mental illness and spiritual rebellion ended in bloodshed.America is in denial. We refuse to face the truth: the transgender movement is built on a Satanic lie. No one can change the sex God gave them. Pretending otherwise doesn't heal broken souls, it destroys them and puts others in danger.Christians must speak plainly. Love does not mean affirming sin or confusion. Love means pointing people back to Christ, who alone gives us our identity. Until our nation repents and turns back to God, tragedies like this will only increase.Pray for the victims and their families.--https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

In this transformative pre-Passover class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath invites us to reimagine one of the most perplexing passages of the Haggadah—the confrontation with the so-called “wicked” child. At first glance, it seems to suggest aggression. But look again. Beneath the surface lies a profound truth about love, empathy, and the infinite potential within every soul. We explore how the seder is not just about telling a story—it's about healing the parts of ourselves and our loved ones that feel like outsiders. We uncover the inner Tzaddik hiding behind the rebellious exterior, the wisdom in our struggles, and the quiet yet revolutionary power of radical acceptance. The class culminates in a powerful meditation on “Nirtzah”—the moment we stop striving and start trusting that our best is enough.Key Takeaways:Look Beneath the Words – The “wicked” child isn't wicked. He's wounded. Real listening means tuning into the cry behind the comment.Empathy Over Argument – “Blunt his teeth” isn't an invitation to silence—it's a call to go beyond verbal combat and into soulful connection.Every Part Belongs – The Four Children represent not just four people, but four parts of ourselves. Don't exile your Hyde—transform him.Rebel ≠ Reject – Even our flaws can be tools for growth. The goal isn't to eliminate the Yetzer Hara, but to elevate it.Your Best Is Enough – The final step of the seder, Nirtzah, is the antidote to “I'm not good enough.” It reminds us: G-d is already pleased. The only one left to convince is ourselves.#Passover #Seder #Hagaddah #chabad #Kabbalah #Israel Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

God's Endless LoveEphesians 3:18-19 “Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences – the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding – this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!”Man, I am truly in love with the passion translation right now. It helps me understand the Word of God in a deeper way. Last night, I was talking to Deacon Joe, the director of the Boston campus of Encounter's School of Ministry, and I told him that I feel like my mission is to bring God's love to others. I want every person in the entire world to know and understand how incredibly loved they are by their heavenly Father.Love is lacking in this world. It is absent in so many areas. The love that we do have is nothing like the love of our Heavenly Father. People are desperate for love these days. Maybe we always were; I'm not sure. I do know that people feel unloved and unwelcome right now. Most people don't feel comfortable in their own skin. They wish they were different in many ways.With social media and how easy it is to see what everyone else is doing, it is easy to compare yourself to what they look like, what material possessions they have, what vacations they take, and how many friends they have. When we start to compare ourselves to others then we start to be unhappy with who we are and what we have. Yet, who we are is who God created us to be. He gave each one of us unique strengths and weaknesses. How many of us can only see our weaknesses?Matthew 22:36-40 says, “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” He said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” I think we all know this first one and find the first one of these two commandments the easiest. It is easier to love God than it is to love others, at least most of the time. If you are going through a really hard season then you might be angry at God, but for the most part, we can get on board with loving God the Father with all that we have.However, the second commandment listed here is one that many people struggle with. First, loving our neighbor doesn't just mean loving the person next door. It means loving everyone we meet. It means loving our enemies or those who have wronged us. There seem to be a lot of unlovable people in the world—people who are angry or unkind. How are we supposed to love people who treat us badly? How are we supposed to love people that we don't even really know? How are we supposed to love people who know exactly what to say to get under our skin?In order to understand how to love others, let's take a closer look at how the Lord loves us. The verse above starts with, “Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences- the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions.” When I looked up the word astonishing, it said, “causing a feeling of great surprise or wonder.” That is the Lord's love for us. It is full of surprises and wonder. Have you ever been surprised by God's love?I spoke with a young woman last night at an Encounter event who was blown away by God's love. She had been suffering from concussions and a condition where her feet couldn't sweat. She had gone to a healing service a while back and did not see a lot of relief from her symptoms. Then, after a day and a half or so later, she was completely healed of both conditions. She just couldn't believe the love of her Heavenly Father. She couldn't believe that He healed her of not just one condition but of both of them at the same time. She definitely felt the astonishing love of God that evening.Next, the verse says, “How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! Wow, this is incredible, too. God's love is far-reaching. I have seen this far-reaching love in my life. My husband and I had been struggling for a long time in our marriage. It got to the point where I felt like we needed to get a divorce. I do not believe in divorce but us living in the same house just wasn't working. We have three boys, and the constant fighting was not good for anyone. Although there was no doubt in my mind that we needed a divorce or at least a separation, I still didn't want it. I went to God often, and I asked Him to fix our marriage. I asked Him to change our hearts. I asked Him to keep our family together. This was for sure a far reach as we were pretty broken. Yet, God fixed us. He changed our hearts and helped fix not just our marriage but our family, too. There is no questioning God's love for you when you can see Him work so powerfully in your life.Next, it says, “How enduring and inclusive it is!” This is something I think we often forget. God's love is inclusive. Jesus did not come to save the righteous. He came to save the sinners. Jesus ate with the prostitutes, the tax collectors, and the sinners. Jesus met everyone right where they were, and He showered them with love and respect, and then He told them to sin no more. He didn't meet people with condemnation and judgment. His love was and is inclusive. His love is also enduring, which means long-lasting, which seems like an understatement as His love is forever; it never goes away. You could live to be 500 years old, and He would still love you.Next, it says, “Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding.” Do you ever wonder why God loves you? I mean, none of us are perfect. We all mess up, we all make mistakes, and we all hurt God in a variety of ways. So, why does He love us? The answer is that His love transcends our understanding. His love is not dependent on us understanding it. Also, as I mentioned earlier, his love is endless. It is like a circle. There is no beginning or end to God's love. He has always loved us, and He always will. Isn't that incredible?Do you see now why I love this translation of the Bible? It has this amazing way of describing things. I love how it describes God's love. It puts into words what really can't be put into words. It helps me understand God's love at a whole new level. I mentioned above how we are called to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. It is easier to love ourselves if we understand how loved we are by our heavenly Father. If we love ourselves then it is easier to love others. I invite you to take some time today and reread this translation of the verse above. You can look it up online or go to the Bible app on your smartphone. This is the passion translation. I invite you to sit with the Lord and thank Him for loving you so well. If you struggle to feel the Lord's love, then I invite you to sit with Him and ask Him what is getting in the way of you feeling His love because I assure you His love is there.Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless everyone listening to this episode today. Lord, help us understand how much you love us. Help us learn to love ourselves and our neighbors. Thank you, Lord, for being such an amazing example of love. Thank you for the way you love us so unconditionally. Help us do the same with all those we meet. We love you, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name. Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. I will be opening registration to my October retreat soon, so be on the lookout for an email in your inbox.

Endless LoveAnybody can fall in love. The only requirement two people need for that is a pulse. But staying in love takes more than that. Everybody wants a life-long kind of love, it’s why movies end the way they do, it’s why we celebrate and esteem couples that have been married for 40, 50, or 60 years. But how does it actually happen?

In an act of rage which was unusual for such a calm and placid man, he would claim he murdered her over money she had given to her daughter. But was there more to this?

On this episode of The Project Endure Podcast, Joe Rinaldi sits down with Jon Cervi to talk about what we can learn about life from yogurt, being a vessel of love, the challenge of changing tires on a moving bus, we are not our thoughts, becoming a trendsetter and trailblazer (in crop tops), uncovering our biases, falling in love with what we once hated, doing the things that scare us, the importance of showing up, the value of being a good teammate, viewing grief as as a red ball in a blue box, escaping safe confines through hard decisions, using gratitude as a north star in the dark, escaping panic attacks on airplanes, finding different vehicles to drive toward our destination, seeing God as endless love and so much more. Give this episode a listen as we dive deep into Jon's life and learn about what persistence, perspective and endurance mean to him.
