In the essence of life, there is an endless desire and a force of resistance. From infancy, our endless desires face obstacles, and we fight to keep them. For example, when we need to stop breastfeeding, we resist and cry as babies. In this situation, a pacifier is given to compromise, but eventually, we need to stop using it as well. We might pretend to stop using it while still using it secretly, or we might quietly give up our desire to eat as a form of protest. We encounter countless conflicts like this, and express our resistance and protest in various ways. 

How do you resist and protest?

A curious mind, living with a passion for learning and discovery

In the face of these obstacles, the basic, innate drive continues to resist. Sometimes this resistance leads to compromise, while other times efforts are made to eliminate it. This suppression or disregard of resistance makes us to become individuals who follow the desires of others, shaping our actions and lives based on their expectations and positioning ourselves according to their views.

In some ways my introversion may be a form of resistance. Hiding myself to maintain myself. To keep from being whittled away and polished. It's hard to attack what can't be seen.
