About Me

My photo
I am a pastor and a clinical psychotherapist. My life's passion is defining healthiness from a human perspective and paralleling it to the holiness of God, divine perspective. Shifting perspectives creates a paradigm that is alongside of rather than over and against. The parakalein of God and the paradoxes of humanity are redefined. Humanity is all about winning and yet we are losing ground everywhere. Divinity is all about letting go of the desire to win and the fear of loss. The Divine embraces the world with loving care regardless of anything.

"Human Centricity" a guiding principle

Posted by Don Paine

Ken Segall in his book "Insanely Simple" raises the flag of the geniuses of simplicity.  Simplicity is marketable in our day of complexity and multiplicity in an empowering way.

He comments that Apple's sign process is guided by a principle called: "human-centric" focus.  In commenting on this Michael Hyatt says, "Beauty delights us.  That's why Apple's elegance invites engagements".  It stimulates more than looking at a watch it is using the watch to increase engagement in the human cosmos.

While he does not convince me to buy the Apple Watch which I have seen was a symbol of extravagance of living.  I do see the watch very differently.

Human-centricity coupled with inner-being (Thich Nhat Hanh) may be a better way to evaluate all we do and the way to peace in our world.
