@marwilliamson Why are you 'fiercely resisting' anything? That is where the bitter and angry comes in. What we resist persists. Why did 77 million people vote for Trump? Get curious about them. What are they fearful of to make them cast their votes in that direction?

@ScottHamann9 Give me an example. Do you think because I fiercely resist an authoritarian takeover of our democracy that that makes me “bitter, angry and resentful?” Did you get from my books that I thought love could never say no? No spiritual path gives us a pass on addressing the

@marwilliamson Serious question, Marianne: When did you lose touch with this part of yourself and become so bitter, angry, and resentful? I've read your books and loved them. Your persona has drifted far, far away from these messages.

Posting this again because it carries such a deep message:
“Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure.” – Marianne Williamson 💫
It’s rarely about incapability; we often just struggle to accept how much possibility lives within us.

The statement critiques the idea that resisting something causes it to persist, using a medical analogy to argue that some things persist because they are not resisted. The tone is critical and aims to challenge the original assertion by providing a counterexample.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly cause harm but challenges an idea, which is a part of healthy discourse.
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding or empathy, as it focuses on refuting the original point rather than fostering dialogue. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive criticism by providing a counterexample, but it could be more respectful in tone. [+1]
