Guilt is supposedly a feeling we get when we have wronged another person, we’ve caused undue harm on others. That’s what it SHOULD come from. However, guilt-like feelings can come as a result of a guilt-trip, when someone is trying to make you feel guilty for not doing something FOR another person. Guilt shouldn’t come […]

Whose agenda are they driving? Who is going to benefit from your submission? Who is being selfish in this equation? Who has to give up something vital to their rightful happiness over whose potentially selfish benefit? You cannot be selfish if another person is asking you to sacrifice your happiness for theirs.

As racial issues have again become a major talking point, I would like to air out some of my thoughts around the subject, and I need to ask a bit of patience here… As a Finn, the first time I saw a black man was in 1980’s, I think I must have been 12 years […]

It is easy to feel guilty for one’s own success when looking at others who are lacking everything – including talent. How do you deal with your own good luck when others around you do not have the first thing and you, yourself, are drowning in luxury…?

All of you “I would never” thoughts about sex are a red flag to a sexual predator.

To sexually spoil someone, you need to have something to spoil; sexual purity and disinterest in sex.
