Here Are My Top 5 Psychology Gems (9/16/16)
1. Have you ever broken the law? □ Yes □ No
by: @natichi
The first-ever time I took other's money when I was 6. We were visiting my mom's friend, so we were guests. There were a few coins on the shelf in the hallway, just to buy one ice cream and gum. I looked around - no one was looking at me, so I put them in my pocket.
Yeah, of course my parents repeatedly said that I shouldn't take someone else's property because it's bad. But what was wrong with it - I really didn't understand.
“All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong, and repairs the evil. The only crime is pride.” ― Sophocles, Antigone
2. The Trickster’s Guide on How to Stop Worrying and Start (Risky?) Living; Part 1
by: @radioactivities
As stupid and beautifully flawed humans we dread chaos and make attempts to master the environment around us at all costs; especially costs to mental health. We've dismissively labelled it ‘stress’; this heavy mental anguish which arises out of the Strife for survival. Before we know it we become full of needless worries without question. Life, online or off, becomes “serious business” In some twisted self-fulfilling prophecy, worrying causes much pain, undue sacrifice and misplaced emotion which leads us astray from the road less travelled. Instead we pursue a path to the Alters of Self-Pity where we Lament the fact that we worry too much, worshipping the very thing that cruelly taunts us!
3. Something I Almost Never Talk About: Being A Parent
by: @dragonanarchist
I don't really write about parenting, or about my son much, but that's in part because I think it's important to keep my identity as a person separate from my parenting. While I don't glorify parenthood, it is a very personal and profound experience, and it surprised me because I was very arrogant about what it meant to be a parent, before I was one. As a non-parent, I had zero fucking clue, but I was so sure I did.
I was so certain I didn't want any children. I'm so, so glad I got to have my son.
I actually believe--much the horror of some stay at home mom's I have met--that my child is not who I am, nor is the act of parenting him an identity for me to take on. He will be with me temporarily, and after he is fully adult and autonomous in his function just as much as in his heart, he will have a life outside of my own. My own life will go on with or without him as a regular part of it, whether he choices to keep his own mother as a close friend or not. My son owes me nothing, since he did not ask to be born to begin with, I brought him here through my choices. I am here to guide another human being into full autonomy.
4. . Journey to childhood's country to return to yourself Part #2
by: @asdes
This is not the first and, to a huge regret, and not the last story - if I go out married young and green and I certainly couldn't not avoid such errors. Now, you need time to recover. To return yourself. Restore yourself. Feel like you're alive again and you deserve to live. You need to take a dandelion wine from the pantry.

I don't understand why you included "Consciousness Is Made of Atoms, Too". all they did was copy paste an article from another site. As far as I can tell, they are not the author. This is not Steemit worthy content to just copy paste content...
