being your own arbiter...

in class today we talked about arbitrary decisions....two parties have this problem and they let an unbiased arbiter decide what they should do....

this arbiter doesn't have any laws according to which it should decide but only what is the best resolution out of the reality at stake...

it made me wonder how sometimes we would really need a personal arbiter....someone who could decide for us in certain matters what is to be done and what is to be avoided. i know this might sound crazy but how many times have we not been able to sleep because of a certain problem? or tries to figure out a resolution we never come to in the end?

some would argue...the arbiter can't know better about my life....but sometimes utopically speaking an unbiased opinion would be fantastic!

utopically again, cuz this is impossible and at the end of the day we ourselves are our own little arbiter that puts the negative and positive issues of a problem and choses what to do about it....

now between the heart and the mind which struggle all the time about which should be the arbiter, well that is way to complicated for one to decide...as long as it is professional - the mind is of greater help as long as its personal it is the heart...

but this simple rule fails so damn constantly that we end up in square one....
and then what to do?

hire an well-trained and profesionally skilled arbiter i would suggest!

good luck!
