Dear gentiles (non-Jews)~ Please please please do research and think long and hard before developing any kind of Lilith character.
She causes miscarriages, attacks/steals/kills living children and/or she's a literal sexual predator. She's a girlboss the same way Margaret Thatcher was, which is to say her go-to is to cause human misery. She's a Jewish demon, and Judaism is a closed religion. It's important to respect that by keeping her in context rather than treating her like a fictional character you can interpret, change, and portray however you want.
I'm not saying you can't be inspired by her. I'm not even saying you can't portray her in fiction. I'm saying please tread carefully, research from Jewish sources, and that if you want to depict her in a way that's significantly different from Jewish lore, it would probably be best to just make it a new character.

Nurturing a Positive Perspective: The Path to Understanding and Empathy
A person can cultivate a good perspective by actively engaging in self-reflection, empathy, and open-mindedness. Here are some steps to foster a positive and constructive perspective:
Self-Reflection: Take time to understand your own beliefs, biases, and values. Reflect on how your past experiences and cultural background have shaped your perspective. Acknowledge any biases you may hold and be open to challenging them.
Empathy: Practice empathy by actively trying to understand the experiences and viewpoints of others. Listen attentively to their stories and concerns, and try to see the world from their perspective. Empathy helps build connections and bridges gaps in understanding.
Diverse Exposure: Seek out diverse experiences, cultures, and ideas. Engage with people who have different backgrounds and beliefs. Exposure to diversity can broaden your perspective and help you appreciate the complexity of the world.
Critical Thinking: Develop critical thinking skills to evaluate information and ideas critically. Be open to questioning your own beliefs and the information you encounter. Encourage a healthy skepticism while also being receptive to evidence and rational arguments.
Respectful Dialogue: Engage in respectful and open dialogues with others, especially when you disagree. Constructive conversations can lead to a deeper understanding of differing viewpoints and may even help find common ground.
Continuous Learning: Commit to lifelong learning. Read books, attend lectures, and engage in discussions about various subjects. This intellectual curiosity will help you adapt and refine your perspective over time.
Maintain Positivity: A good perspective often involves maintaining a positive outlook on life. Focus on gratitude, resilience, and optimism, even in the face of challenges. A positive perspective can lead to greater well-being and resilience.
Cultural Competence: Develop cultural competence by learning about different cultures, traditions, and worldviews. This understanding can lead to greater respect for diversity and a more inclusive perspective.
Community Engagement: Get involved in your community and participate in activities that promote understanding and cooperation. Collaborative efforts can lead to positive change and a broader perspective.
Reflect on Ethics: Consider the ethical implications of your perspective. Ask yourself if your beliefs and actions contribute to the well-being of others and the world. Ethical reflection can guide you toward a more compassionate and responsible perspective.
Remember that developing a good perspective is an ongoing process. It requires self-awareness, humility, and a willingness to learn from others. By actively working on these aspects, individuals can contribute to a more empathetic, inclusive, and harmonious society.

phoenix “genuinely unable to reconcile the girl on the stand with the girl he dated for eight months, a cognitive dissonance so profound it’s ultimately explained by them being literally two different people, but which he first sits with for five years and does not talk about at any point to anyone” wright
phoenix “don’t mention that name to me. i don’t want to talk about it. i don’t want to think about it. i am just going to keep myself in this state of perpetual crisis mode focus on other people’s problems until eventually i die and get to hang out with mia on the astral plane and never have to deal with any of these emotions ever again” wright
phoenix “overnight loses his career and reputation and sense of identity while gaining an adopted, probably pretty traumatized eight-year-old daughter, and rather than leaning on his friends for help, or getting therapy, or taking any time to process any of this, he *checks notes* spends seven years dedicating all his free time and energy to investigating the weird fucking circumstances around it and maintains a friendship with the guy he suspects was behind it all” wright
phoenix "runs across a burning bridge and falls through it, half a day after the game establishes that he is terrified of heights, because his friend is on the other side of that bridge" wright
