Time To Embrace The Thought of Death

Death is one event we cannot play mind games with. It is inevitable. We can’t even have proper knowledge of how or when it’s going to hit us, until the very final moments when it’s almost too late to put anything in order or say the necessary goodbyes.

You're Better Off Alone!

I'm no love expert but, honestly, it doesn't take a genius to recognize a grubby and squalid relationship.

A relationship can be said to be a connection between two people and their involvement with one another, especially as regards the way they behave toward and feel about eachother. Underline the word 'connection'. Trouble usually starts when the two parties involved begin to show their differences.

The Fallacy of Hasty Generalization

Dear It's Taophieyc reader,

Today, let's talk about a topic of statistics which is now very interwoven with our everyday life. I didn't even realize there was a term for this phenomenon until I heard it in a vox-pop video I saw on youtube.

First and foremost, a fallacy is a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound argument.

As explained by Wikipedia, hasty generalization is an informal fallacy generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence- essentially making a hasty conclusion without considering all the variables. In statistics, it may involve basing broad conclusions regarding the statistics of a survey from a small sample group that fails to sufficiently represent an entire population.

The fallacy is also known as: Illicit Generalization, Fallacy of Insufficient Sample, Generalization from the Particular, Leaping to a Conclusion, Hasty Induction, Law of Small Numbers, Secundum quid.

The Cold Hands

Sometimes, you just sit there and stare into empty space. Its not like you don't have stuff to do but your mind is so far away from where you're sitting (or standing as the case may be). The rationale behind this kinda mood ranges from finance to family issues and the list can go on and on. Death, to me, is the worst of them all.
