Seems there's nothing left inside
Of me that's good. " - Anson Seabra

We focus too much on being, this leaves us stagnant. We need to focus on becoming, that is where our dreams are. - The Selfless Bastard

On a journey to Spiritual Badassery since 2023.

Friends, Family, Stalkers;

I know it's been a while. I was thinking about life, again. ...

I don't think anyone is born good or bad for that matter. I don't think a narcissist is born that way or an empath was conceived

I think we are made the way we are. That a person is a product of their environment. There's a story of twins born to an alcoholic father. One twin never drank and was a CEO of his own company. The other twin was homeless and drank himself to sleep every night. When they each were asked why they were the way they were. They had they same answer... " I watched my father."

Our lives start out with the same 4 letters. V-I-C-T. What we do after that is up to us. The letters that follow will determine our future. We can either be VICTims... or VICTors. It's a choice we have to make every day.

As always be well,

The Selfless Bastard

"Building character is slow and unglamorous." -John Ortberg

"I don't think heartache ever really goes away... we just get used to the pain." -The Selfless Bastard

"It's in the vastness of ones own mind that we must find solace." - The Selfless Bastard

"Hurry is the great enemy of spiritual life in our day. You must ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life." -Dallas Willard

"Pain is the price of freedom" -Micheal Singer

I have been told over and over again that I should forgive and forget. Honestly, that is some bull s**t logic. Even Jesus flipped tables, my friends. No, never forgive and forget. Remember and recover. This is your daily reminder to love yourself.

There was this man, who pulled a sled full of 400 pounds across Antarctica. He said something I found really interesting. Pulling a sled across Antarctica does not seem like an easy task. But he said that he likes suffering, because suffering makes him feel like he is close to God.
