Culture of Handshake

 The practice of shaking hands has been around for thousands of years and has evolved over time. One theory suggests that it originated as a way to show that you were not holding a weapon, as shaking hands requires both parties to extend their right hand, leaving their weapon arm vulnerable.


Another theory suggests that the handshake began as a way to convey trust between two parties. By shaking hands, people would show that they were willing to expose themselves to each other and were trustworthy.


In many cultures, the handshake has become a universal greeting and a sign of respect. It is often used in business settings as a way to seal a deal or as a formal introduction between two parties.

Why is their two pair of chopstick put on a table when we order asian food?

 In Asian cultures, chopsticks are the traditional utensils used for eating. When you order Asian food, you might notice that two pairs of chopsticks are placed on the table. This is typically done as a hygiene practice to ensure that guests have a fresh pair of chopsticks to use during their meal.

The first pair of chopsticks is used to serve food from shared plates or dishes. This is known as the "public" or "common" chopsticks. Guests use these chopsticks to pick up food from the shared dishes and place it on their own plate or bowl. Once the food has been served, the public chopsticks are returned to the shared dish.

The second pair of chopsticks is meant for personal use only and is known as the "private" chopsticks. Guests use these chopsticks to eat their individual portion of food. This helps to prevent the spread of germs and disease from person to person. Is widely practised after covid 19. 

Now even have personal share chopsticks.

What is law?

The more I understand the law, the more I know how to violate it. And that is a winning edge.

Knowledge of the law is often associated with the wealthy and powerful. This is because they often have access to better legal representation and resources that can help them navigate the legal system more effectively. As a result, they may be able to use the law to their advantage and put pressure on those who are less privileged.

I know the law can also be empowering for individuals who may be marginalized or disadvantaged by understanding their legal rights and the laws that protect them, they may be able to advocate for themselves and protect their interests. In this way, knowledge of the law can be a tool for social justice and equality.

Still the rich win. It is all about games on a bigger stage.
