in Japanese the word *invincible* is written like 無敵 muteki Which could also be interpreted as *no enemies* 無 mu: nothing/void 敵 teki: enemy It's a cool interpretation because if you dont have any enemies there's no one who would want to defeat you ergo you're invincible

The things you didn't get, you didn't truly want in the first place. God knew it, and deep down in your gut, you knew it too. That's why you put in lackluster effort and energy in half-hearted endeavors and feeble people and when you fail, you implode. Don't. Explode and express.

Master your style by mastering the art of leveraging color Wear: + one color - gangster + two colors - stylish + three colors - clownish There's too many fucking clowns in this world dont be like them. Master your style in one second, be gangster be stylish.

A life altering heartbreak soaks you an inky bottomdwelling abyss. You're drowning suffocating, but then you realize it's not air you were seeking, it was darkness. The dark you were needing. From the bleeding severance of life opens up the wound from which emerges the light.

Every demon in the dungeon inside of you that you defeat leaves behind loot with its power. It might be cursed, tainted toxic, but it's yours nonetheless. You fought for it, bled cried, died for it. It's yours, take it. Every dark you clear takes you one step further than fear.

It’s harder to be a good friend than a good man.

Your demons sometimes are strong and legion but sometimes theyre also stupid, simple, and thus predicatable. like a serialkiller cashing in its psychic trophy they return to the crime scene to observe as if it's their glorious lair. There you can trap em spawnkill em.

A master knows exactly when where why how to lose control, just for a moment, and then reign all that mightyness back in instantly like a lost mustang come in from the wild forest.

The opposite of strength is not weakness, it’s suffering

Born to be Gohan, but live long enough to see yourself become Vegeta.

The things you truly want, they come true somehow. Down the line. On an alternate timeline. God’s timeline, not yours. You want it right now, but it’s not possible, the full set of moving components havent been put in place for the divine masterplan to reveal itself. Faith. Wait.

When you’re studying fiction, you’re actually studying yourself. It's a mirror to the story told within your soul. Once confronted with your preferred medium you’re able to dissect, cherrypick, integrate, embody, and become whole. You seek to externalize what's inside of you.

The longer you live, the more you realize there’s a finite set of people being simulated in your life. It’s always the same x amount of people. This set might differ slightly for the person next to you, but they have strong overlap. Best to figure this out sooner than later.

The people that you never fully got along with, they do make a mark on you, and become some sort of archetype stuck in memory. Then when someone asks you your opinion on something, you talk about them implicitly as if that person’s whole life would clarify the situation.

It’s harder to take a compliment than to give it.

People who dont have timing have a weak spirit. Always late always in a rush getting in the way of things people you themselves. True spirit is complete and operates on its own accord, and thus has its own timing. Or rather, spirit is timeless and thus always has perfect timing.

The thing or person that hurt you, the situation you thought was x; it was actually not what you think it was or how you perceived it. It was something completely else, it was y; time breeds this perspective. And it all snaps into perfect crystal clear focus when a synch happens.

Names have power. Names are keys. Names can summon. Post-its with scribbles but once touched tear open wounds and scars with subterranean passages all the way to one’s core vulnerability and raison d’etre. Learn the names. Learn to name, rename and not to call upon certain names.
