Why does what seems to me to be common sense to me, is it not for the other.?
Quite a word that common sense!
What about if not the ability to judge well.
For if the meaning is this ability to experience sensations, why do we not perceive these same realities?
Besides, isn't common sense the whole of judgments common to all men?
All the more so because we often wonder about the meaning of life.

I will add to this word the sensation and the emotion. For if on the one hand there is a psychic phenomenon, on the other there is the human, sentimental factor.

And yet it is also the understanding of obvious facts of human suffering, obvious demands of human nature acting on the world as a bath of moral purification.

Today, during this pandemic that is Coronavirus, the watchword is to stay at home. The reason is simple, avoid being in contact with a carrier of this virus and thus save your life. Common sense, what?
Once again, the world comes out, ignoring warnings and more people die.

What about all those religious Jews who, during these days of Coronavirus, keep meeting, praying and eating together when we have to live apart. They don't follow the rules and die. It must be believed that for them faith is more important than common sense. But what lesson does that teach their children? Should we rethink, reconsider this religion and its duties and obligations?

Why does a part of the world still refuse to respect common sense?
Yes, we are all different.

I remember when I was fifteen years old, my Talmud teacher would say to our class: look at each one your watch and tell me if you all have the same time to the exact second . The dozen we were did not have the same time. Moral: each is different from the other, each will act differently, each will use his own common sense. Which almost sounds like a two-way word.

The fact that we recognize our differences will make us more united. In other words, why will what is good for me not be good for others? One may wonder how common sense can be different?
We are talking about the sixth sense, that of intuition. But this is not easy. I would much prefer the practical sense, this ability to solve the problems of everyday life.
A thinker once said that the only meaning that is common in the long run is the sense of change - and instinctively we avoid it.

The fact remains that I would like to be considered a man of common sense.
I will conclude with this word from Vaclav Havel, whom we all know and who said: The tragic element of modern man is not that he ignores the meaning of life, it is that it bothers him less and less.
