DRUNK ON POWER

Hi Wen, interesting topic.

I never get drunk at all - power or booze!

In fact, I don´t remember having had that much power in my life to get drunk on..

Wenever ~ I have seen many politicians, who preached and told the masses what they wanted to hear, better welfare payments, childcare, fairer tax system,nHousing, health service, none delivered and whilst in power, put themselves and their cohorts on bigger salaries.

I have also seen it on a smaller scale with people who made money very quickly,[during Boom time] becoming obnoxious, overtly obsessed with materialism, ashamed of their humble beginnings and putting
on pretentious upper class accents. Money is power, and yes, people do get drunk on it.

Ash has made a very good point here regarding the dynamic of a group.
I work in groups, organise workshops and the same applies. When someone leaves, the energy is cut off and I cannot allow them, or anybody else to come in later and participate. It just doesn´t work.

Just my two cents.

Wen...I'm talking here about real life groups. Not CS.

The type of workshop I do it doesn't work like that at all because it's all about energy and group dynamics.

Hi Wen
Power is a flucking drug, it´s as addictive as any, increases the levels of testosterone and its by-product 3-androstanediol in both men and women.
You mentioned Paranoia, agree, plus an increment of alertness, confidence, energy, feelings of well-being and euphoria, but also anxiety and restlessness.

But ........






I have "issues" with authorities, controls, norms and laws in general so better leave my coment like this LOL!
Hope you´ll be ok Wen

Jajajajaja (laughing in Spanish) ....I guess I´m so obvious

I´m good thanks ....busy and trying to "relax" a little in CS ...hope you are ok too, thanks for asking my gentleman friend

Interesting blog indeed yet, has any man considered the power of pu**y and how women can use it against men?
Wars and empires have been started built and destroyed over the power of pu**y.
To consider that both men and women can use sex as a tool of empowerment.
Usually that may be the only power they have. But, if it works for most women they are not going to give up their tools of power.
Being a control freak in industry is IMO a sign that those in power in mgmt positions are probably more weak than they let on.
Being a control freak outside the job in personal relationships can also have devastating effects.
The old saying he/she who has the gold makes the rule.
Human nature dictates if one has something another wants, the one who has will use it to their advantage in one form or another. A simple example is let's suppose you were looking for a room to roommate with someone offering a room. However, the owner of the room happens to be male and let's say you are the female who is borderline homeless. Ah! but the guy who is hard up for a girlfriend uses his spare room with one goal in mind to have a girlfriend willing to f*ck him just to keep the rain off her head. She weighs the idea that she can't afford her own place so does she concede or continues her search for a more suitable place knowing time is running out? Another form of how people use their power over another is let's suppose you have a parent who is elderly and sick and he/she is so damn annoying with their ways in controlling their caretakers they make your life so miserable that you want them out of the picture in your life but, you know you can't just remove them or rid of them because the same nutcase has you by the balls because you have no money to buy your way out into a more healthier environment.
Consider the power women have here on this site. They can write any idea of the kind of bum they want in their life but, they can simply block you out just as easy if you don't meet their criteria.
Even if this blog is about being so obsessed with power that one can get some kind of high from having such control over another, do consider they only have as much power over you that you give them.
When I first got on CS a beautiful woman wrote about getting our power back that we freely give away to others to use and abuse us.
It matters not if it's in industry or at home or social media.
Real power has no ego to protect. Real power has no need of controlling others. Real power can bring light and healing to the blind and sick.
Real power needs nothing outside of itself nor takes from others to make them weak.
Real power gives to others to change their ways and builds bridges of hope and understanding.
The old saying give a little power to someone and it goes to their head.
Usually all that power comes with heavy responsibility. Heavy is the head who wears the crown.
Many have so much power and beauty that it's almost frightening to think if most used their power for good in this world we could put an end to war and social injustice.
Only the helpless raise their helplessness against an idea that they are helpless.
Do we want to see ourselves powerful and unafraid? Fear, doubt, and littleness will keep us all in chains.
So, when the next time someone writes to us and inquires of our friendship or company try to look beyond your walls of doubt and fear and always know everyone has the power to choose to love or hate. Or to love and bring healing.
There is no greater power than love. And it's not selective it merely is. The ego on the other hand is selective to that which feeds it.
On that note I leave you all to ponder, to criticize and to objectivity etc.
