Only one question (I got a little claustrophobic, as I am wont to do, in the crucible🙃) Is that portrait of a handsome fella up there you, Tristan?
Despite my phobia, powerful image, that crucible......

Quite the song this poetic write it speaks of welcoming the fire and enduring the refining. Each rock easier to remain what it is yet so much more valuable when refined. This poem pounds with each utterance of the word crucible like a blacksmiths hammer on the anvil shaping weapons for the war against life. Embrace the fire the flame the crucible, the process makes one stronger and more valuable

To be delusional about our pain is often the result of being gaslit - a cancer to the soul and the best parts of ourselves 🙏🏻🕊️

Paul Bell said:
I don\'t even think people realise they\'re abusing you now, it\'s ingrained.
Escalators are a prime example, the amount of people who crack up when you\'re not running down them is amazing. My usual retort is. It\'s a machine that takes you up and down, moron. Abuse back and forth, it\'s like a starter for ten

This seems very emotional and strongly felt transmitting powerfully its message. I would never wish harm upon another nor willingly subject myself to undue abuse I do use the calluses that I\'ve earned to prevent further injury. Nature does provide protection to repeated wear and tear. A great write Tristan

I wouldn’t call myself fearless by any means, but if a relationship/friendship/association means too much diminishment of myself, then......
This rang very true, Tristan.

To whom that we may not BE, shall ever refuse us constantly. Their insistence on our non-existence is an idiotic persistence 🕊️👍🏻

In the end, it\'s all about yourself.
People will come and go, some will be helpful, some will help themselves on your behalf.
That\'s why when you look behind to see who\'s following, you realise, no one is.

A poetic warning to not allow others to hold you back from being who you are. Don\'t anchor your hopes and beliefs on someone that does not accept you. Nicely done Tristan

Deeply philosophical with a bit of playfulness (loved the term leadershit) A towering dark shadow of realities burning light of life and dark death. A Gothic existentialism that requires that resting time before the dough is cooked, enough time for it to raise. Fermentation a form of rot. Nicely done Tristan

It\'s easy to be no longer ashamed when it gets so so tempting... But when the bright sun leaves, and we\'re left in the cold night, there\'s no more comfort, and no more brightness.

Good read, Tristan. Organizations, corporations are mostly like that with power plays etc in all directions. Why Christianity via its earthly embodiment a/the church should be any different, I have no idea.
