  • Thank you for the post:

    Quote from the post: 

    "Power corrupts. Rare is the soul who can resist the pull of the ego toward gratification of desire."

    This is so true!!!

    And, like Michelle Obama said: "Power reveals".

     

    I consider power, fame, beauty, and such attributes as neutral trinkets. However, they are of utmost significance, because they act as gauging factors of the personal degree of self-victimization, from the ones upon whom they are bestowed to the ones drawn to those persons for attractiveness the displays afford them.

    I am in a similar position regarding the attributes as the one who possesses them, they are equally disposed to test both of us. And, without fate's blessing with access to the attribute(s), the fact that one is not tested doesn't imply that one will pass a test.

    Passing a test generally means the opportunity to take it. These attributes are generally made available to human beings because the challenge matters equally to all of us. Although we may make our minds regarding certain personalities and their position, providence has its own reason and considerations.
