Best sub or stack for not being insecure?

[Malkuth]

This is a fair enough question.

I appreciate your candor. I would have accepted it had you chosen to interpret the question as rhetorical. But I’m also not that surprised that you took the challenge.

My personal vulnerabilities? Recurrent doubt about my capacity to navigate the social world and interactions. I’m working at it.

My point in asking the question though was to illustrate the limits of analytical frameworks for evaluating human lives. There is a certain truth to be found in experience, in contact, and in encounter. It cannot be replicated or adequately captured by distant, objective analysis.

To be fair to objective analysis, however, it also has strengths that experiential contact lacks. The breadth, accuracy, and logical precision of analysis are often unattainable by ‘felt experiencing’.

My opinion: Awareness of these inherent limitations in our strategies of mastery and competence is humbling. It also opens up increased possibilities for learning and growth.

On being an alpha

Thing is , is that unless long term healing is accomplished there is always going to some upheaval or whatever you want to call it when an inner game or status sub is run first. I have a friend who I have known for close to 25 years that is either ten or eleven years younger than me (I’m 53) who is in mental state where he would rather focus on the affection of a woman with serious issues of her own than get his shit together. He sent me screenshots of some of what he texted her recently and it’…
