Strength & Weakness

True...in real life bullets don't bounce off people and those fighting tactics don't always work. We do like to create heroes though.

In real life I think "strength of character, strength of will/resolve, integrity, solidarity" works pretty well. Strength is also used to protect, nuture, and guide. Strength has a solidity to it...it is strong enough to give without fear of being diminished.

Weakness might be the opposite...self interest, small mindedness, one easily manipulated or swayed.

What is funny is when weakness and fear masquerades as strength. It is a mask some like to wear to hide insecurity. It is a pretense. I know people who are like this.

On the other hand, sometimes the truly strong are the ones who are secure enough to be vulnerable, kind, open, generous. They are not afraid. I wish I knew more people like this.

 

Famous unwritten formula:

Divide human by two = strengths and weakness.

1) Give fancy definition for strength.

2) Give fancy definition for weakness.

3) Try to destroy your weakness while maintaining your strength.

4) Try to hold your strength while being overpowered by your weaknesses.

Hmm, no thanks. I'd rather not have an inner battle. I've been there, done that!

I rather be human.

 

what is strength to you?

I suppose that strenght to me is freedom to choose.

What is weakness?

A doubt

How do you overcome your own weaknesses?

I understand them.

How do you deal with perceived weaknesses in those around you?

I am trying to understand the proportion between me and other person.
