When I am Weak, Then I am Strong

Adam was a master teacher who named all animals according to their nature. He gave the snake its name not only due to its beguiling wisdom which it exhibited when it tricked Eve, but also because of its sophistication, insight, and right discernment. A little-known fact is that the serpent uses its belly to sense an earthquake days before it occurs and it is out of right discernment that it maneuvers through its rocky habitat without ever being cut. After Eve took some of the forbidden fruits and ate them, she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate too. Consequently, Adam became guilty of ushering sin into the world because he sinned with eyes wide open, unlike Eve who was deceived.
Sin brought death with it. Death spread to all men because all men have sinned [Rom 5:12]. Our condition is so desperate that, biblically speaking, we cannot overcome it alone [Jere 13:23]. There is no moral philosophy, mental exercise, or group therapy that can get rid of this sinful nature that leads us to death. Paul felt it himself when he said, "for what I want to do I do not but what I hate I do [Rom 7:15-16].
So there are only two ways to get rid of evil. The first is by sacrificing the self so that Christ may dwell in us [Rom 12:1-3] and His will shall be engraved in our hearts [Jere 31:33]. That shall be a daily struggle, but it will culminate in the day when the evil that dwells in us will be wiped out forever and the enemy called death shall be destroyed [1 Cor 15:26].

The supremacy of the Feminine Imperative is threatened by true emancipation from it. Consequently, Men with the vision to see past this are labeled Dark, Sociopathic and Deviant by the imperative. The imperative had to classify Game for itself - Evil vs. Good Game. Of course, the good is defined by whatever benefits the imperative, while the evil is defined by whatever benefits the masculine ‘selfishly.' Ref: The Rational Male

Resilience: How to Identify Stressors and Develop Healthy Coping Mechanisms

As humans, we are resilient creatures, capable of bouncing back from the toughest of situations. Resilience can be compared to a rubber band that can stretch and return to its original form, no matter how much it is pulled. But what happens when the rubber band is pulled too far? Stressors in life can be compared to the force that stretches the rubber band, and if we don't identify and cope with them in a healthy manner, we risk snapping. To build resilience, it is crucial to identify our stressors, which can be likened to the weeds in a garden. Just as weeds can hinder the growth of a garden, stressors can hinder our personal growth. By identifying these stressors, we can work towards removing them and creating a healthier environment for growth. But simply removing stressors is not enough. Just as a garden needs to be tended to regularly, we need to develop healthy coping mechanisms to nurture our resilience. Coping mechanisms can be compared to the fertilizer that helps plants g...
