Trauma, rejection, sorrow; these are all necessary prompts that pin you against the wall and make you evaluate where you are heading.

Often, clarity emerges when we least expect it, when things take a terrible downward turn.
A very harsh rejection or breakup is not so much a bad thing to the man who has been deprived of the truth for very long.

These tragedies which many so despise come to be life-changing catalysts that give man his chance to put things to right.
When man, at last, discovers that his rash efforts are totally futile and his delusions are clearly ineffective to his growth, he will at once let them fall - the journey to get to that place is not an easy one, it's arduous.
The value of such an experience, however, changes you for good.

But this is what happens when you allow your insufficiency to dictate your life, you lose true power - your discrimination starts to work against you, not for your own good.
Which is why, I believe, true power lies in clarity, in completely lucid reasoning that is based in firm purpose.

But when this power caves in, by force or will, you're no longer a man but a coward.
You have little authority over your life once you have given up your most useful faculty to fit in with degeneracy.

You virtually become chained to servitude, falsifying yourself to comply with people's exploitation - this is an awful tragedy for man.
