Confidence comes from within, but so does delusion. The difference between a confident man and a deluded one is their ability to face their darkness with bravery and humbleness. Absolute honesty with the self makes a man into a great warrior, delusion makes him an easy target. In the eyes of God, just being humble and a harmless person is not enough. Most religious people hate hearing this, because they love to mistake mediocrity for humbleness. There are intellectual prerequisites to ascension, wisdom, and the ability to do truly virtuous things. The enemy of light is not darkness. It is mediocrity and inaction in the face of change. What some see as patterns or cycles in their lives - are, in truth, spirals. And each spiral, after each cycle, slightly changes tone, marking its completion. They will never repeat again. Don't just stop And stare, my friend Turn the page To your golden age ![[IMG_2983.jpeg]]
