Las grandes preguntas existenciales que han acompañado al hombre a través de la historia no son más que un puñado. Pero son tan persistentes que trascienden cualquier época histórica, la cultura donde se hacen esas preguntas, el país que cobija esa cultura, y las tradiciones que la sostienen. Los pensadores de cada nueva generación las toman y las repiensan desde otro ángulo, desde otra perspectiva, con nuevos elementos de juicio dando como resultado respuestas frescas a estas perenes preguntas.Este ensayo filosófico es un esfuerzo de exploración de una de esas grandes preguntas: ¿Por qué continuamos repitiendo los mismos comportamientos una y otra vez (muchas veces expresados como errores, o como comportamientos negativos) como si no hubiésemos aprendido nada de aquellos que nos precedieron?Ensayaré responder a esta pregunta que se repite en cada ciclo de pensadores tratando de hallar una respuesta más satisfactoria que las que he recibido de mis maestros. Creo firmemente que lo que importa no es lo que los demás han dicho, ni cómo lo han dicho, sino el esfuerzo individual de reflexionar sobre las mismas preguntas buscando respuestas más aceptables que las recibidas. Este esfuerzo es lo que construye la visión personal de la vida, su sentido y la búsqueda última de las respuestas inacabadas sobre las preguntas que nunca terminan.

Most men hide their feelings under the archetype of 'a strong, tough guy'. They forbid themselves from expressing them, even when the arrival of his first son brings forth a wave of new and profound emotions.This small book has that merit. The a...
