" We should Learn Empathy from the very core of Human Emotions! And Violet Evergarden is one of those series that serves as a medium to it. " - Saptarshi Bhowmick And like I said before I am one of those strangers who really liked it when the shows make me cry most; it evokes certain emotions in me that I might have never felt before. Violet Evergarden is among those few series that recapitulated all the epitomes of civilized empathy. let's summarize shortly the plot of the series~ Plot - The story revolves around Auto Memory Dolls: people initially employed by a scientist named Dr. Orland to assist his blind wife Mollie in writing her novels, and later hired by other people who needed their services. In the present time, the term refers to the industry of writing for others. The story follows Violet Evergarden's journey of reintegrating back into society after the war is over and her search for her life's purpose now that she is no longer a ...
Hi, it’s 2026, and this is the first post of this year. Yes, it has been a long time since I have written something. With my previous engagement, I was quite busy; the sheer duty of maintaining the workload, along with family hassles, made my hands too full to scribe something worthwhile. But here I am, again with an interesting issue.
In this post, I will discuss the urgency we feel to receive allowance despite knowing the consequences of it. Many may consider it as free money, and there’s a catch. Whenever you get a benefit from something without selling your services, there is a great chance of getting addicted to it. A mindset emerges among the youth that money can be earned even without effort. And this mindset obliterates the reasonability of the purpose of earning. A healthy economy depends on the relationship between earnings and spending. These two factors need to be substantial in order to maintain balance between the economic structures of the society.
The following are the points that I guess are related to the consumption allowances cause -
Behavioural and Motivational Risks
• Allowances will create an entitlement mindset. As beneficiaries receive regular unconditional payments, they will foster an expectation of receiving money without effort. It will ultimately kill their pursuit of employment. Who would want to spend labour to earn money when money is freely granted to you on a plate?
• It will reduce their motivation. As they are receiving money without labour, their focus will shift to the payment itself rather than learning responsibility or cooperation.
• If, in future, they get jobs, this experience signals a poor work ethic. As allowance replaces the opportunities to earn, it creates a backdrop in the minds of the beneficiaries. In their future work life, this will have a negative ethical effect on their portfolio.
Financial and Cognitive Risks
• Allowances can create misunderstandings in learning the value of money. Because the allowance is not earned on labour, the value of that money will always be less in the eyes of the beneficiaries.
• Easy access to cash will increase impulsive spending. Once the money is earned, the spending comes with a thought. Therefore, unearned allowances may seem foreign to that thought process.
Social and Relational Risks
• Allowances can build boundaries between people who are receiving them. On one hand, one may ridicule one's strive for enrollment in the allowance program, but deep down, they will get jealous for not applying themselves.
• Inflated Expectations: Beneficiaries accustomed to a steady allowance may struggle when disruption occurs to their continuous cycle of receiving allowance.
Although I feel obliged to receive the allowance depending on the taxes I pay, the imbalance it creates between the worlds I want to build around my career and life negates my decision. This is totally my personal take. It is in no way a contradiction of my views with others. Everyone has the right to receive allowances. It only requires matching the criteria for them. This article is in no position to disapprove of one’s choice of receiving allowance. Because I myself know that we are entitled to receive the facilities we are promised. Thank you for your time again. I know I will say that I will be regular now with my blog post, but we all know it is not true. So, see you until next time.
Doing so creates a bad habit
