I came across these Confusing Phrases:
Choose Out of the box; 箱の中から選ぶ
Choose Outside of the box; 箱の外から選ぶ

The former was a bit hard to get the picture, but then I remembered "Out" implies the movement: inside → outside, and that finally made the sence in my mind [キラッ]

今日、ちょっと紛らわしい表示を見かけました。
1つ目の文は少しイメージが掴みにくかったけど、Out が中から外への動きを表すことを思い出して、やっと頭の中で理解でしました ✨️

So the former implies to take smething from inside the box to outside, not only to choose!
By the way, the latter also seems to have a ideomatic meaning.

つまり、Choose out of the box はただ選ぶんじゃなくて箱の中から外へ取り出す、つまり選び出すって意味だったんですね!
それと、後者は慣用句としての意味もあるらしいですね.

I find the concept of ownership very intriguing. I think it is unique to humans and is based on the sense of choice or free will that is deeply ingrained in human psyche.

The objects of ownership generally include artificial things, part of nature, and living beings such as animals and humans.

The ownership entails the procedure through which it comes to be recognizable and authorized. Something comes to be under ownership of someone through the exchange of things and money between a former owner and a new one. When it comes to the objects that have distinct borders from others, it is easy to identify who owns them. However, when it comes to something like a piece of land and a person, the borders often become blurry, and the concept itself becomes abstract and elusive.

Analytically observed, ownership is based on the recognition made by separating an object from the whole. It is inherently for the purpose of convenience. Doing so and labeling a specific part of the whole with a name, the recognition of it is formed and then the ownership.
