    Enheduanna, also known as En-hedu-ana or Enheduana, is widely regarded as the world's first known author and poet, as well as one of the earliest recorded female figures in history. She lived in ancient Mesopotamia during the 23rd century BCE and held the esteemed position of high priestess in the city of Ur, which was a thriving center of Sumerian civilization. Enheduanna's literary works and religious contributions have left an indelible mark on the cultural and literary landscape of ancient Mesopotamia. Enheduanna was born in the city of Ur, located in what is now southern Iraq, around 2285 BCE. She was the daughter of King Sargon of Akkad, who established the Akkadian Empire, and Queen Tashlultum. Being born into a royal family, Enheduanna enjoyed a privileged upbringing and received an exceptional education in literature, religion, and politics. At a young age, Enheduanna's intelligence, eloquence, and spiritual devotion were recognized, leading to her appointment as the high priestess of the moon god Nanna at the renowned temple in Ur. This position bestowed upon her significant religious authority and influence within the society, making her a powerful figure in both the political and spiritual realms. Enheduanna's most significant contributions are her literary works, which include a collection of hymns, poems, and prayers dedicated to various deities. These compositions were written in the Sumerian language, the oldest known written language in human history. Through her writings, Enheduanna expressed her deep reverence for the gods and sought to establish a personal connection between the divine and humanity.

  • Reality Therapy - Facing Reality Taking Responsibility - cover

    Reality Therapy - Facing Reality...

    Reality Therapy is a therapeutic approach that emphasizes personal responsibility and focuses on the present moment, encouraging individuals to make choices that align with their true desires and values. Developed by Dr. William Glasser in the 1960s, it diverges from traditional therapeutic methods by centering on the idea that behavior is a choice and that people can gain control of their lives through conscious decisions. 
At the core of Reality Therapy is the concept that all behavior is purposeful and is driven by an individual's attempt to fulfill basic needs. These needs include survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun. When people feel that these needs are unmet, they often engage in behaviors that are designed to satisfy them, even if those behaviors are not helpful or productive. Reality Therapy challenges individuals to evaluate whether their current behaviors are effective in meeting these needs and whether they are serving their long-term goals. 
Another key aspect of Reality Therapy is the belief that individuals can only control their own actions. While external circumstances may influence a person's situation, the therapy stresses that the responsibility for behavior lies with the individual. This approach encourages people to focus on what they can change—namely, their actions—and to stop blaming others or external conditions for their problems. It promotes the idea that by changing one’s choices, it is possible to create a more fulfilling and responsible life.
