'What do you do?' she asked. He went on a monologue about mutual funds while she made pleasant, smiling exclamations. When he finished, he stared at her, waiting for her to ask him another question about himself.

NO VEE YOU DONT UNDERSTAND I LOVE LEOS SO MUCH LIKE I WOULD DIE FOR ANY LEO EVER IN MY LIFE EVER
LiKE ITS UNHEALTHY HOW MUCH I LOVE LEOS
I’m a Sagittarius, it makes sense because- and I always tell people this and it’s not entirely true but kinda true- no one likes fire signs except for fire signs so we have to have each others backs but LEOS?
Y’all tell me to hide a body for you? I will, I’ll take the fall. I’ll go to jail, I admit to the crime even with no evidence against me FOR A LEO? IT WOULD BE WORTH IT
LEOS ARE PERFECT. MISUNDERSTOOD. AND PERFECT AND I LOVE YALL

Someone disagreeing with your religious views is not warfare. I know this is hard to understand but not everything is about you.

If you were a deity, what would you be the god of?
Tumblr media
The Firebrand
You were born peaceful and serene, but somewhere along the way a match was struck and burns still. Rage flickers inside you when you read the news only to find that the perfect world you can see so clearly has been nipped in the bud for the hundredth time. So instead, you rally to your cause. You've never been one for suffering fools, least of all now when the world totters on the brink. You're the type of person who can't see yourself live to a ripe old age because your candle burns brighter than most, but it burns at both ends, and yours is a blaze of glory. You were born to be a revolutionary, and you know better than anyone that scorched soil is the most fertile. Make sure something grows from your strong sense of purpose. As a deity, you're the god of fire, of change, of renewal, of anger, of war, of revolution and of righteous justice. You have a gentler aspect, too - you're the god of hope after destruction, like in Princess Mononoke when the long grasses and flowers grow where the ancient forest used to be.

The antidote to a self-centered life
In today’s world, it’s relatively easy to be self-centered. The culture is constantly urging us to “treat yourself,” indulging in whatever desire we have at the moment. The antidote to a self-centered life is to incorporate prayer into our daily schedule. Pope Benedict XVI explained this idea in his homily for Ash Wednesday in 2008. […]The antidote to a self-centered life

do you think the Chief is an overall self-centered asshole? because Sean said there were signs and he tried to talk to his father but he never listened to him
The chef was definitely a self-centered jerk. That's probably one of the reasons why he didn't want to believe who Sean really is. He was afraid that it would ruin his own image.

Self-Destruction
Let’s check the case of suicide,where one does not see the flip side. His griefs, misery, helplessness all matters,but do not care about hearts he shatters. If that moment was skipped somehow,he might be living even now. Something once his only subject,will realize later as a silly object. Suicide does not require fortitude,neither need to live in solitude. All it needs an extreme…

Love Them Anyway
Mother Teresa said, “People are unrealistic, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.”  “In the past,” a friend pointed out recently, “when people were outside enjoying nature, they photographed the scenery and took pictures of beaches, mountains, and forests. Now, we turn the camera the other direction and take pictures of ourselves.”   Industry experts estimate that today’s average…

Atheism vs Not-Ajnani: Embracing Humility in a Self-Centric Society
In the blog 97: 7 Delusions that can hold you back, I mention this, it’s what the author Robin Sharma calls WRAM syndrome (World Revolves around me). [ I suggest it will be helpful to read that entire blog and go through that list of 7 delusions I’ve mentioned there ]. Not-Ajnani is one who is not suffering that syndrome. WRAM Syndrome You may notice that people who never listen or ask genuine…

For too long in this society, we have celebrated unrestrained individualism over common community. For too long as a nation, we have been lulled by the anthem of self-interest. For a decade, led by Ronald Reagan, self-aggrandizement has been the full-throated cry of this society: "I've got mine, so why don't you get yours" and "What's in it for me?"
 Joe Biden, announcing entry into 1988 presidential race, Wilmington, DE (Jun 10 1987)

Tonight, I am reminded of how selfish and self centered you truly are. You don't respect my profession at all and the hard work I placed into it. You remember the time when you keep asking me if I should change my last name to yours when we're married? And I respectfully declined. There was a pause there and it wasn't what you wanted to hear. You wanted me to hyphenate my name over yours. You are sooooo paternalistic (only that you are a woman). Egoistic sob.
