***********One cannot overcome oneself by overcoming someone else.
***********The false self can never be the true self.
***********What then is the basis of your struggle?

**********I have no struggles of that kind. Just usual factors to deal with.
**********
**********With True Love as the foundation, there is no overcoming anyone.
**********That means: "Selfless and Unconditional Love"! THEE greatest gift to others. Many hold on to what THEY want and need in a relationship of lover of friend. That would be overcoming someone. Not good for anyone!
**********
**********True Love means putting others first, even when it isn't what we need. (Knowing what the other needs, and backing off, AND even HELPING them in their needs, despite it not being what you wanted). "That" will allow others to get what "they" need. It might just hurt not to hold onto that love of another, (for one example I am witnessing of a friend's situation this past year and now). So, I was "taught" what I'm talking about, by seeing what REAL LOVE is all about! "Selfless and Unconditional Love"!
**********
**********Lucky me to be seeing it in action! As Humbling as it gets! Inspiring too. I have good people in my life, to learn such things from! I mean GOOD-to-the-Core people, starting with my parents and older sister! Not many around with such selfless love for ALL others. The only struggle would be to achieve such a level of that Love. Many don't even bother with such a Love. They then, I feel, are missing out on what living day to day is really all about.

*********Where did he say "what not to talk about"?

*********People tend to lump some things under politics when they involve far more than just that...

********LOL...it was in his title! :)

***** Then I realized the things which fascinated me had always done so and always would do so.... No point in trying to run from that... It is indeed as the Moodies once put it, a question of balance...

*** Balance is the key! Yes! I agree! Too much water kills us. Too little is also fatal.too much or too little oxygen ...food...heat ...cold...
*** Extremes kill.
*** I used basic needs to illustrate my concept, but there are conceptual matters to balance as well that are not so surely fixed as the physical needs. With concepts, beliefs and attitudes, it is most often we, ourselves who afix the fulcrum. The balance is of our own determination, and not so clear as physical needs.
*** Ah! Look at me! Foolosiphying again! But thanks for your attention.
**
**Weigh everything in love for family, friends, and even strangers who agree on the spot to exchange a HI or whatever else comes to both minds! The rest is just common sense, (balancing) as it was put.
