The act of directing another’s free will. To craft your ideal concept of a person that best benefits you and/or your cause. When you come to a complete stop at a “STOP” sign, you were manipulated. Driven, ironically, by the red octagon with the word you come to innerstand as “to cease movement”. This benefits us because this keeps us and other drivers safe on the road.
Manipulation isn’t always a bad thing, but it can be detrimental if not done with pure intentions. I’ve dealt with my fair share of it while also spinning my own webs. I’ve reached a realization that it’s one of those shadow aspects that is necessary for us as sentient beings. We all want everything to go our way, but not everyone thinks that direction is necessarily the best for them. The conclusion i’ve come up with is that: “Everyone has their own truth in this life”. Their own perspective of things. We may find others that agree with us on certain things, but there’s something about you that others will NEVER innerstand. Being authentic draws out that innermost you that can’t possibly come from anyone else. Being present and being your upmost self frees you from the shackles of manipulation. You can have a mind of your own. Do as you please. Not everything you want to do is considered the standard or norm, but it’s YOU. No one can take that from you.
Just saying, you can run that stop sign if you truly wanted. There’s always a consequence/reaction to your action, but that’s up to you to decide if the action is worth the consequence. You and others life’s are always at stake in this life. Risk exists in most decisions you make. Consideration is great and flattering. Doing things because others want you to is fine as long as that’s what u want to do truly at your innermost core. Doing it because others want you to, but at your own expense is considered people pleasing. Respectfully, fuck them people. They living their life just like you’re living yours. Just because they want you to follow in their footsteps or blaze your own path the way they want you to doesn’t mean you can’t decide to say no. Do your own thing. Be unique. Be someone that can’t seem to put in a box or under a label. Move different. Go against the grain. Free yourself from the chains of mental slavery and think how you want consciously. That’s a gift giving to us all. All you have to do is open it. The choice is yourz. Face your Fearzzz.
