Smart or silly people?

One other concern that people have about clever people is that they are always frustrated; and as everybody knows, being frustrated is a bad thing. In the last decades we have heard a great deal more of psychology than we wanted to hear in a whole lifetime. One of the biggest prejudices that this blabber has caused is the almost complete destruction of the meaning of some excellent words and the search of a world that, if we are able to find it, will turn out to be a complete disaster. Amongst the goo d words whose meanings have altered for bad we can find certain words such as stress, frustration and aggression. We are all constantly looking for a pill that will take our stress away and the pharmaceutical laboratories that discover this will become exceedingly rich, although probably not for a very long time. Can you imagine what it would be like to take a pill like that before trying to cross the Times plaza in New York on a Friday night with high heels on while it is raining and there is thunder and so forth? And what can we say about bad words, frustration and aggression? Geniuses, in general, are the most frustrated, most aggressive and most realized people in the world. What is wrong is the supposition that the feeling of frustration and the act of aggression are necessarily bad, because they are not. All of the people in the world are frustrated and are aggressive in the measure they perceive the difference between how things are in the world and how things should be in the world. The less smart and less worried a person is about this situation, the less is a person able to perceive the difference. The smarter and less worried the person is, the more he perceives the difference between how things are and how things should be.
