The Necessary Discovery of What We Have and Who We Are
We live in a moment where contradictions are used to justify why many fit into a certain group while others close ranks in opposition. Something along these lines: “If I think this way, I logically cannot think that way, and that’s it!” This restricted view is directly linked to a culture that insists on telling…

Emotional Contagion
In addition to the constantly recommended care aimed at the resumption of school spaces, technically justified, it is important to observe that new perspectives need to be exercised, aiming at the harmonization and development of interpersonal relationships, fundamental for both socio-emotional aspects and the group characteristics required by the BNCC. Although the learning process has…

One of the Shortcomings of the Cradle
There was a time when accumulating technical knowledge, cultural traditions, languages, and other specific information guaranteed a certain status of intellectuality, even for those who achieved these goals through “cheating,” “reading footnotes of books and magazines,” or even repeating “wise expressions” from various authors, known or unknown.

They even say that problems and…

The Air of One’s Own Glass
Many times we have the impression that people walk around without having anything to say, or to respond to us, in the face of the simplest and even obvious questions. I often feel that the biggest problem in the world has been the attempt to escape from one’s own problems. Nothing to say, nothing to…

Holidays: A Time to Learn Oneself
During the school holiday period, we begin to talk and think about the word “rest,” which generally ends up excluding from this time the pursuit of developing new and little-known skills. I cannot deny that after a period of much physical and/or mental effort, every human being needs to recover from exhaustion, but we must…
