As the relative reality is nothing but an expression of the absolute level, we can have a relaxed attitude to it, as much as possible. If the attitude is not relaxed it is strained and stressed, and that is a problem.
However, there are many modern things which must work perfectly and powerfully, like nuclear plants, aeroplanes and train engines. In these machines there is no room for laxity or relaxation. But these machines are not human beings. The people in charge must be able to do their task in an atmosphere of relaxation.
Not long ago, a lot of industrial and other production took place under very strict forms. Recently we have seen pictures from factories in China with this strict discipline. So it exists.
But it does not mean that it is the ultimate form of human life. The best in this respect is probably a balance between relaxation and discipline.
From the philosophical point of view, the important is to express compassion. The most valuable is not to be compassionate, but to plant the seed of compassion in others.
There are people doing the opposite, planting and watering the seed of hostility, violence and enmity. This is a problem, in particular when those imposing violence does not see it as remarkable.

Get an identity

Subjective, objective, subjectivity...
We are all individuals living among other individuals.
We have a subjective identity. This identity has by itself a surface, which is the objective part of ourselves. The surface can be seen by others. This surface can be elaborated in order to give a certain impression to the others.
The objective identity can be different from the subjective one. It can be a mask that is hiding the "real" person behind.
The objective identity can be changed more or less easily by changing style of clothes, home, car and many other things.
The "real" person behind can also change, and should change as a result of systematic study and effort. That is the existential function of being human.
Can we get to know the real person - the dynamic subjective subject - by using hostile means?
These days there are so many ways to get information about people. Video cameras on many places, with face recognition. Everything done on the computer, cell phone, Internet, in e-mail and so on can be observed.
This is hostile. It is distrust from those who happens to have the task of analysing these extreme amounts of material.
But can it disclose truth? If the means used are very damaging and negative, the picture will be of something damaged and negative. This was not there before the investigation. This is not the original truth. It is an effect of the hostility.
