Face reading is a tool, but it's best used when the practitioner becomes dangerously accurate at reading. It is primarily used to help one navigate the world and filter out undesirable experiences with undesirable characters - unless the meeting is fated. Always talk to the best people around. Never talk to the worst people around. Bob and weave and life is suddenly so much more pleasant. > i can't avoid reading people. but I don't focus in their faces. i guess for me it's easy to feel them. their vibration. sometimes their lies. but yes, there are times when 'the meeting is fated'. I think, as time passes, you will learn to silence this part. But your mind could work different than mine as well. My early years were just torment, I soaked up everyone's feelings and emotions and information involuntarily. I needed the whole day's rest just to recharge. Safe to say that I always gets the best service everywhere he goes.😂 But regular old me always has mixed experiences. But these are still needed to stay grounded and normie-coded. Can't really fit in with a cloak-and-dagger like in the good old days. I always advise the formation of an alter ego - just one, not several. But do it playfully like I did, it'll take a life of its own by itself. You have to own your darkness and know to keep it at bay, but you can never truly reject it. Once you know what your darkness is, you may keep it on standby for those stormy, rainy days. I love experiencing the world as a regular person too, I can put the shades back on and enjoy the blissful ignorance. This is a gift too, trust me. But he knows and sees everything, he's a trained assassin, and he's unironically capable of killing and inflicting great pain without hesitation - if need be. He is a quick handler of situations, a master of symbols, never in panic, cold-blooded and calculated. A lifelong martial artist. He's military trained, knows how to use a plethora of weapons - cold and hot both - and can fashion a weapon out of anything. He remembers the resting place of all things, every single item and accessory with a single scan of a room. Every door, exit way, passage way, hiding place, you name it. He is unassuming, never forgets a face and knows everyone's secrets and weaknesses. He always knows the right things to say to the right people. He could blend into a Vietnamese whorehouse if he needed to. He also never makes mistakes, but he's also wise enough to know that he's not beyond making them, so whenever he does make one - he's so incredibly adaptable that he can make it look like it was part of his grand plan all along. This isn't a "maybe" either, it's a guarantee. He'll keep searching for his plan until he finds it, and will then put a spin on reality to serve just his needs and purposes. He doesn't care about pain or losing limbs and teeth. He moves like he's convinced he'll grow those back. When he's in the right, he knows that his wrathful hands are divinely guided. The world conspires for him to win. Basically, he is the guy you call when you have three corpses to bury on a 10-minute deadline and a room full of crimson diarrhea. He's the monster my soul could never afford to be. But he is still very, very useful. What's your darkness look like? You don't create the alter ego - you become it. But why? Because it existed even before you mused it into being. You merely interface with an existing, perhaps even ancient, thoughtform. Becoming its avatar. Earning its wisdom through your likeness. ![[IMG_3723.jpeg]]
