Nice, I'll just move when there's a hurricane coming. Better yet rain. For $10,000, why not and rent it out.

You're just used to seeing hardships in life and thinking that's how life's supposed to be. I'm not speaking about human's drive or success rate or what motivates them. We are creative beings by nature and the same way that survival is a motivational thing to get people to move their ass to support themselves, being creative can also be motivational to get things done. Suffering also drives people to suicide, depression and lethargy. Most people after a certain age get sick, why you think that is. Half the United States are on medication and most are obese not to mention the ones in mental institutions and the ones on drugs. These conditions are in massive quantities, so I'm not just referring to a few. Can't be productive while mentally challenged and it's tough when you're physically ill. Suffering is not what motivates people, in fact it's the opposite. It might motivate them to want to change their lives but so does happiness, having lots of energy, will and a healthy drive to do so. It's easier and more pleasing to the body and psyche to do it from the latter while getting the same results.

Resilience is unisex. You just haven't been around women from Third World Countries. They are the most resilient there is, especially from Haiti. Resilience is not an inherent trait, it is learnt, it's a skill. Both men and women can learn this equally. It doesn't take physical strength. You can be as physically weak as a mouse and still be resilient. Nature didn't make people resilient experience and being in a lot of hard times can make one learn how to bounce back easier than some no matter the sex. Please Google the nature of resilience and you'll see what I'm speaking about. It's not a man's trait.

All this you're talking about is just weasel deasel. I don't see women running around town crying and all men being able to help themselves. Some men are living in mommy basements and gf couches eating popcorn and playing play stations and some women are tough inside and don't depend on a soul for anything. Plenty of men everywhere dependent on others for support and plenty of women all over supporting themselves. We need to realize how we're just wrong in all our assumptions about how we think people are, including myself, so I'm not singling you out. Women don't need to cry to get support from others, all she needs to do is ask. If men are capable of helping themselves so much we wouldn't see so many stories upon stories upon stories of men leeching off of women for support. Plenty of examples of everything all over the world.

That's it. Nothing more is needed. Everything else is tuxedo's on a suit. Life goes on, joyful learning goes on, knowledge goes on, whatever people do goes on, respecting others goes on, relating to others kindly and lovingly goes on, society goes on and trying to impact the world through whatever means goes on. Once you can do all that and everything else from the place you mentioned above, one will be peaceful and be at ease with whatever comes their way, even through the challenges. Don't have to look for ways to cope or need outside sources to feel fulfilled. Peace and fulfillment is already the case and all that needs to be done is to see the world for what it is.....a shit show. Just joking, but you get the drift - the stage show that it is.

I wasn't literally judging a man's reputation. I was merely giving an example of how the word weak could be used in a sentence that could describe a man's actions. Anyway, all im saying is the word weak is weak, but it's definition varies and can be used in different contexts. No need to go further as I understand your stance and your use of the word weak and it was meant to be in the physical sense. Thanks for the convo.

This is just giving reasons why women are stronger emotionally - besides the point. Reasons why isn't the essence of what I was addressing. I think most people would agree with this. Only someone living on Mars wouldn't, that men are physically stronger than women. The word weak can be used as a description in various ways, it's best for the sake of interpretation and reader's understanding you specify to avoid miscommunication. "his driving skills are weak", "her knowledge of history and the way she expressed it was weak", "that password is weak". A man's reputation can also be easily damaged. Liable to break or give way under pressure could be referred to a male giving a public speech. These definitions, of which there are plenty more variant examples, can be applied to men. Your definition of the word weak, is just that, your definition. The word standing on it's own of even used to describe a particular sex without context, leaves the reader uninformed on what the writer actually means. It is not automatically understood. I totally agree that women are physically the weaker sex, but there are areas where they do show strength that way surpasses males.

Except for toughness, I agree those are character traits that shows strength. There are also others. Saying women are weak and leaving it at that to me implies women have no strength in any area. Showing toughness can mean anything and is a very vague word to use to describe strength. Someone acting tough could mean they feel weak inside and feels the need to show toughness to mask that, that's why I excluded that. Resilience and courage are straightforward words but they aren't subjected to only the masculine or even most; that can come from any gender and also equally distributed. Character is also vague and interpreted in many different ways but using this word in any way still refers to either sex.

You just don't understand women. FYI, most women will recover quicker from a break-up than a man can even if they both loved each other equally. Women are emotionally stronger than men, that's why they don't mind showing their emotions and men mostly hide theirs. We have practice in that regard. Women can also handle physical pain better than men, and overall, men are physically stronger while women are emotionally stronger. Women have been bearing child-birth pain forever and you call them weak. Being beautiful is not a strength, it's more of an advantage.

I know, it's like they're saying, "if I didn't ask you to entice me, please don't. When I'm ready, I'll go to a strip club, watch porn, or look at playboy. I reserve the right to not get excited by going on Instagram because I go on there after I already jerked off to porn and or had sex with my gf and I do need a break sometimes. For me, Instagram is reserved for me to look at beautiful women, but fully dressed, so I can slowly warm up for my next jerkoff session. Looking at your scantily dressed pictures is only going to make me want to prematurely jerk off when I'm not ready and i may get frustrated because I already came twice today".

Is that you in the video talking?

I'm so sick and tired of seeing these types of comments. First of all, you don't have to look. You will say, it's up in my face, but I visit ig regularly and I don't see that stuff because I'm not focusing on it. Once in awhile I'll go to the main general page and see all sorts of pics, including women scantily dressed and just keep scrolling to see if something interests me like the cute animals or cats or birds or cooking. Other than that, I just stick to my main page where I see posts from people I follow. Secondly, there are also men posting scantily dressed pics but no one complains. Men aren't saying how they are tired of seeing men's pics trying to seduce women or women saying these men need to go get dressed or whatever - it's always the women getting flack. Also, some women like to show off their beautiful bodies for the world to see and feel good about themselves doing it. Not necessarily to entice men. Some do, but not all. Men are the ones who like to take it upon themselves to believe everything a woman does is for them. There are also beautiful lesbians posting scantily dressed pics because they just feel like it and they are not out there trying to entice men. If other lesbians sees those pics they aren't saying I wish she would go put some clothes on, they are admiring their beauty and maybe are happily enticed - idk. Doesn't matter, if you didn't feel enticed, you wouldn't be saying what you're saying. Some people get enticed by ears, necks, hands and feet - no one complains if they see these types of pictures; maybe only the ones feeling enticed and would rather not be and wish people wouldn't show those pics but not dare say it because they would look stupid. It's only pics of beautiful women that get these kinds of responses. People fuck goats and horses, do you complain when you see these animal pics. People hump on pillows and bedsheets, do you complain when you see pics of pillows and bedsheets. When men complain about this stuff that they are not forced to see, they are only revealing that they are unwillingly turned on by it. That's your problem because there is an exit button. Leave women and their sexuality alone because you don't have to look. I personally don't post pics like those on social media so this isn't coming from a place of it being personal because I do it too, but as a female, I'm aware that all women that do it aren't doing it to entice but because they love to and feel good doing it. People like to express without intentionally trying to entice.

Not sure if I would put it in these exact words, but the essence of what you're saying is what's the case. I would say the "I" thought/energy comes with it a feeling of lack - automatically. It cannot help but to feel lack because it's the energy that thinks it's separate. How can something that is a part of the whole but thinks it's separate not feel lack. It's impossible not to. There's no healing there because it's in it's nature to feel lack, incomplete and unfulfilled. It cannot be any other way. This is at the core of humanity's problems and why there are so many problems both individually and collectively. It is very painful, tiring and exhausting to be a human because it is operating from the feeling of separation when there is none. This is why if one wants to keep the human identity it is still important to realize what you truly are at the core and think and act from that place because that's how one can truly enjoy the human experience and integrate the two. Feelings of joy, happiness, bliss etc will be automatic because there will be no feelings of lack and separation which is where all our problems lie and one won't find the need to chase happiness.

We are thinking our lives away.

Thoughts are energy and the energy of thought is sometimes released or expressed through words. We all do it. Ever notice sometimes a thought pops up and you feel the need to still say it out loud. E,g. A wordless thought, "I shouldn't have said that to that lady this afternoon", popped up and a few seconds later, you're repeating the same exact thought out loud. There's something to it and a reason why we do that, but I forgot why exactly.

Thanks for sharing.

Just to be clear. This is not about being inundated with Leo's concepts. This is about, as I stated in my post, me seeing for myself how this is the case. I don't just watch videos and believe in them just because......i also think for myself, use my observational skills, am curious by nature and psychology oriented. It's the reason why I enjoy those types of videos also. It's not to watch a gurus teachings and whatever they teach I adhere to, it's because, I myself am interested in those types of topics. I used my own discernment to see and understand most of what he was saying when I traced back the connecting dots and also what I observed about my own behaviors.

I understand what you're saying; but when you say "bad intention" I think that could be relative and depends on the outside perspective. How someone carries out an intention whether good or bad, to me, is irrelevant in this case as to the general subject of "good intention" being the primary factor and what is really the thing trying to be dissected. I don't think the results that stems from that "good intention" matters in the case of the phrase "everyone acts from good intentions". I think you're looking at the results from these "good-intention acts" and forming your assessments from that....my opinion, of course. I will watch the video again soon, to get a better grasp of this as, if I remember correctly, the way he explained it, I was in total agreement and understood what he was getting at from his pov.

This is the video mentioned in the post.

This is pretty much the whole point here. The only difference I see here is you saying some and Leo saying all people. I also mentioned survival in my post and what you're saying here also refers to the Iraq war.

Which is most of society, hence my comment about how most of us are addicted to something, it's just that alcohol and drugs are more noticeable. The ones, to me that are the least noticeable are emotions and thoughts. People can become addicted to certain emotions and thoughts. This is why, with emotions, self-sabotage is a thing as they act in ways for them to sustain their addiction to feeling sad, angry or miserable because of not feeling good enough and also feeling guilty if they feel happy or joyful. In respect to thoughts, and not saying this is the case for everyone and I say this with caution, suicidal thoughts can also become addictive and that's why people can have them for years without doing the act be cause it's just the thought they are addicted to and has to do with the body/mind connection.

Horniness as a need. Lol. kidding.

Not in the way my statement was intended. I need money to go shopping but not if I don't need to buy clothes. I would say sex is more of a desire than a need. The needing of sex is in relation to something else other than the need to sustain the body. E.g feeling horny, the desire to connect, to feel loved, for procreation, etc. The needing of air is only in relation to staying alive. To me, that's a need.
