A Discussion on "Emotions" with Olha S.
Rational thinking and decision-making does not leave much room for emotions. Faced with worry, frustration, despair, sadness, or shame, we lose access to our own memory, reasoning, and the capacity to make connections.
What is an emotion? How to reinforce positive emotional habits? Why do emotions change during a day? Do emotions affect your memory and performance?
You are invited to discuss these and other points about emotions, their nature, emotional maturity and emotional intelligence.
When: February 20, 2016 at 10.30 am.
Where: Window on America Center, Vinnytsia RUR named after K.A. Timiriazev.
Moderator: Olha S.

"Man, what is any supremacy, and a race war which was waged at the beginning of time? Can we reconcile and see each other as human beings? If we continue doing this race, we'll never go anywhere".
You are invited for a discussion dedicated to 'Black History Month'
in America, an annual observance for remembrance of important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated annually in the United States and Canada in February.
It's time to put this tragedy to rest and turn the page to a new and happier chapter of our lives.

The talk is supposed to be around the followig quotations from 'The Little Prince' by Antine de Saint-Exupéry:
1. All grown-ups were once children--although few of them remember it.
2.Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
3.The grown-ups discouraged me in my painter's career when I was six years old, and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas from the inside.
4.Children should always show great forbearance toward grown-up people.
5.The grown-ups are certainly very odd.
6.Only the children know what they are looking for.
7.Look up at the sky. Ask yourselves: is it yes or no? Has the sheep eaten the flower? And you will see how everything changes . . .And no grown-up will ever understand that this is a matter of so much importance!
