  Whatever Next? - On Adult...

  For adoptees, the word 'lucky' gets thrown around a lot. They're regularly told they're lucky to not be in an orphanage, lucky to have been brought into a family, lucky to be adopted at all. Often they're depicted in media as being broken, in need of saving and fixing. Then they're expected to become the hero of their own journeys and overcome their origins.
  Whatever Next? considers how these traditional narratives surrounding adoption have both dominated and damaged adoptive communities for many years, and what we should do to avoid these pitfalls.
  Inspired by the conversations within their Whatever Next? community project, Jo, Addie and Hannah explore the key tropes that adoptees grapple with and how these conversations are evolving, with the goal of kickstarting new dialogues around the adoption experience more broadly, and showcase how beneficial shared discussion can be.

  The sight of suffering does one good, the infliction of suffering does one more good - this is a hard maxim, but none the less a fundamental maxim, old, powerful, and "human, all-too-human".
   
  In this daring and insightful work, Nietzsche lays bare the hypocrisies at the foundations of our ideas of morality. Considering ideas of good and evil, guilt and conscience, and law and violence along the way, On the Genealogy of Morals takes the reader on a journey through the history of value systems in three masterful essays.
   
  His insights are sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes provocative, but always demonstrate the workings of an exceptional mind. Together, this collection of essays makes up one of the most powerful works of modern philosophy that seeks to do nothing less than unravel the mysteries of human nature.

  Responsibility - The Accountable...

  Responsibility is the cornerstone of a meaningful life, forming the basis for personal growth, trust, and fulfillment. It is the ability to own one's actions, decisions, and their consequences without shifting blame onto others. This chapter examines the intricate nature of responsibility and its profound influence on our character and relationships. At its core, responsibility involves acknowledging the power and impact of our choices. When individuals accept responsibility, they embrace a mindset that values integrity, self-discipline, and accountability. This mindset is critical for personal development and paves the way for a more respectful and trustworthy society. 
  The concept of responsibility is not merely about following rules or fulfilling duties; it extends into every aspect of our lives. It is evident in the way we interact with family, friends, and colleagues, as well as in our professional endeavors. When we take responsibility, we are better equipped to learn from our mistakes and strive for continuous improvement. This process of learning and growing is essential, as it helps us understand the importance of our actions and their potential impact on others. Embracing responsibility means accepting that our decisions have consequences, both positive and negative, and that we are accountable for managing these outcomes. 
  Moreover, responsibility instills a sense of purpose and direction. When individuals consciously choose to be responsible, they align their actions with their values and goals. This alignment brings about clarity in decision-making and helps build trust within communities. Trust is a vital element in every relationship, as it enables open communication and fosters deeper connections. In this context, being responsible is not a burden, but a privilege that empowers us to contribute positively to society.
