Muddy Boots on the Mind

Is the difference ( as seeing a human being is one being/soul) the psychologist analyses the emotive action or reaction of the human being, whose brain in the biological term is a physiological matter ( a functional anatomical organ), i.e. a solid body of matter activated by electrical impulses of a chemical make-up and the psychiatrists is the study of the breakdown of the latter?
The psychotherapist is then the masseur of the two? In modern terms how does one divide what the role of the psychiatrists does… to that of the psychologist or the psychotherapist.. when without the brain
and the electrical interaction between the matter and chemicals the emotion or ‘feelings’ would not exists. Therefore the psychology of the human being must be interrelated/interconnected with the psychiatric workings of the human being and vice versa. I think, I feel, therefore I am.
Can the two be divided, if so is the division by way of the psychiatric workings,for example throw sticky hot coffee into your lap-top the electrical impulses go hay-wire,therefore its’ behavior changes for what is expected to be the normal response to your physical input tapping on the keys.
The human brain chemical make-up goes hay-wire or: is altered for what ever reason, therefore the behavior changes for what is the expected normal response to the tapping/input of the world outside the emotions/behavior of the psychological side also changes.
What would the answer be? In the term of the measure of human existence: the three mentioned professions are a new science which this question seems yet to be answered?

Self Esteem and I
I am female: but not a Barbie, don’t wear high heels, my best buddies are men,
but thanks
I’d rather a wife!!!,
Self esteem plays a crucial part in a human beings life. Like the hub to a wheel on a bicycle, holding the spokes to the rim allowing the wheel to turn effortlessly.
As the wheels of life turn and distance in life gained, if flowing with ease a sense of competence, achievement is reached. Self – respect is developed and the most stable source of self-esteem is genuine accomplishment rather than public acclaim and praise.
The public arena is like a court of law, what you think and feel is irrelevant, the fact is….
News stands, shops, the local petrol station are swamped with magazines portraying beautiful woman, beautiful men with beautiful clothes a flawless representation of human beings. Media advertising bombard the human mind of how to aspire to being a reflection of the magazines glossy pictures. The intention is to display excellence in design, quality, the achievements of the designers and artisans. Is it you?
It is like a split personality of information, some react with diminishing self esteem not being able to be like the picture on the glossy page, or use cosmetics that would alter their appearance to what is supposed to ‘ beautify” and a social expectation.
Or those by ways and means can, those being graced by genes are able to do so: seem not to care: enough is not enough where self esteem in a false manner is achieved by the constant chase and purchase a mixture of ‘ glossy page items’ an array of assorted commodities.
Instead of being someone/somebody - start being yourself. What does this mean?
Someone is the psyche in you. What one absorbs and chooses to adapt into the personality becomes you.
Somebody is the physical representation of those actions.
The expression of “ to be washed clean to restore the self- esteem “ has been used for hundreds of years.
A humble representation of this is the invention in 1885 by two brothers William and James Lever instead of using tallow used palm oil and glycerine to create a wonderful free-lathering soap.
One of which was called Sunlight to bring a sense of satisfaction and achievement of well being to woman doing the household laundry. A bundle of fresh clothes oozing a fragrance of cleanliness .
A bar of Sunlight could be used for multi domestic purposes, later the brothers added Pears for the ultimate bath accessories.
Soap was supplied to soldiers for the same reasons, to give ,when opportunity could be taken, a soldier would bathe, be refreshed, wash away the horror of war, refresh the mind spirit and body to lift the self esteem.
The Lever brothers invented Dove Soap with moisturizing properties to care for the skin especially dry skin the after use leaving a comfortable aroma.
The humble tablet of soap or the special use of choosing Dove soap for a soldier in the field, or for a refreshing wash in the river, off grid shower operated by solar, or in the urban districts to the best hotels in the world, standing naked any-one is someone and some-body.
Stepping from that, it is the focus on the contribution the individual gives to their society or social fabric irrespective of any chosen career path of labour.
Self esteem is you and you matter.
Start with the humble bar of soap and wash away someone and somebody, step naked, refreshed , and start being you.
The fact is you are you and I am I.
I am female: but not a barbie and don’t wear high heels, my best buddies are men, and thanks I’d rather a wife.
The Essential Responsive Man
The essential responsive man decades ago was the mail man who despite conditions ‘the mail must get through’
Today’s world the electronic mail is just as critical ‘ the mail must get through’ the invisible mail man delivers despite conditions, however when it fails and the electronic medium being the computer and the technology collapses in an invisible heap who is the responsive man?
Living in a rural district in isolated parts of New Zealand being disconnected for today’s expectation for banking, business, writing for a living, and other essentials an IT ( Internet Technician ) man becomes the essential responsive man.
Like diamonds in the sand dune these men seem rare. Even rarer is the man who enters into ones rural framework that brings the consumer S.P.I.C.E. Simplicity, progress, Information/integrity, connection, explanation plus excellence in service.
Responds to the consumers requirements and like the trusty mail man of decades ago will turn up when expected and not forget you. The responsive man for the IT world with hands on approach, who pauses at the gate way of the global world, irrespective of rural or city, belaying the myths and mystery of the electronic world is not only the diamond in the sand dune: but the true essence of the essential responsive man.
One such hero or essential responsive man, armed with a bag of tools, as the mail man carried his bag of mail is mike@computerman.co.nz who took time to stop at this gate.
