Why Some People Are So Defensive
“Defensive individuals often have control and power issues, and perceive anyone confronting them or holding them accountable as a threat. They are uncomfortable with feelings in general and managing their own. Defensive individuals don’t like to “work through” emotional issues in the collaborative way adults are expected to. They can be highly impulsive and quick in their emotional reactions, without pausing to think things through in a balanced way. Finally, they tend to avoid too much emotional closeness with others.”

“That distinction between what you contributed vs. the rocketship you rode becomes sort of blurred for a lot of people when success comes and especially when success comes easy.”

“Greater in battle than the man who would conquer a thousand-thousand men, is he who would conquer just one — himself. Better to conquer yourself than others. When you’ve trained yourself, living in constant self-control, neither a deva nor gandhabba, nor a Mara banded with Brahmas, could turn that triumph back into defeat.” — Buddha/ Dhammapada
Mara (มาร) represents death, rebirth, and desire in Buddhist cosmology. The personification of the Enlightenment’s antagonist forces.

“Honesty in art often refers to the sincerity, authenticity, and integrity of the artist’s expression. It’s about conveying genuine emotions, ideas, or experiences without pretense or manipulation. Honest art reflects the artist’s true vision and reflects their personal truth, even if it’s uncomfortable or unconventional.”
