RE: Christians & Pagans Against Degeneracy...?
Its not that simple, someone who is strong and proud will not achieve what someone who is not so strong, but not proud, can.
Things play out in unexpected ways, and learning how to identify the subtle factors gives one greater accuracy than the mundane facts can render, because it reveals where the surprises may lie, and life is full of surprises, in fact the future is always more surprising than predictable.
I look for the absence of blindness and for knowledge of self, that is what makes us capable of great things in my experience, and neither are easily measured but both are easily recognized, its called strength of character.
No fact about you will give you what strength of character can.
Like, for example..?
How do you mean? I don't understand ..Can you clarify it for me, a little?
easy: proud people become blind to their own weaknesses and make mistakes.
humble people are more prone to find a win win situation than a personal victory, accomplishing bigger things.
humble people are less prone to making mistakes because they don't just expect success
people who consider better what others have to say tend to consider more things, and more possibilities open up when interacting with them, plus there is the benefit that they listen to you too ;)
also, serious people are hindering themselves every step of the way, I look for those that are sincere without being serious, those people display strength of character and are natural leaders.
Think for a moment about who you've cooperated with and assisted the most in your life, was it people who were so proud they just dismissed you? or was it people who gave you their own time and consideration, your cooperation and assistance benefited them and they would never have had that power without their social strengths and ability to see your virtues.
These are examples of two of the countless subtle traits that can make people stronger in an immeasurable way, mastery of ones own nature necessarily includes a cultivation of a humble and sincere mind, because within that lies greater strength.
I'll ask once more...
Examples to clarify, and not further descriptions, please...
Awesome
Please, I am happy to share more if you're sincerely interested in the principal.
That's not an example of anything.
That's just silly.
You do know about exhibition fighting, yes?
My limited experience in wing chun wouldn't succumb to that! lol
(Or my thai boxing,)
No offence mate, but how old are you?
(I've lived with a buddhist for over 5 years, btw.)
the demonstration is with a black belt champion fighter... but ok I think your comment does provide a perfect example of what I mean :)
Do you agree with Trudeau's message of 'if we kill our enemies, they win.' philosophy?
lolol
How old are you, again?
twelve and a half.
if you kill someone they didn't win but you definitely did lose.
enemies, not some random person
lmao...
When your 18 (and a half) , we can chat again..lol
good luck.
You are wasting your time Lucy.
Possibly....
Update - it looks so far that flagging the war has ceased (someone with a fair bit of 'influence' had a 'quiet word', I think).
No flags today - for the first time since it started - so looking good.
Thanks again for your support matey - If you even need some yourself (even with my tiny SP)
Just give me a shout, I'll be there!
Thanks man, cheers.
