DAY 2459: Every human has four endowments - self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change. Stephen Covey - What do you think?

Spiritual Attributes

Self-awareness, conscience, independence, will, and creative imagination are all attributes of the human soul. I separated independence from will because they are separate attributes that, like all the spiritual attributes, interact with humanity's dual nature. The human body is part of material creation, while the soul is spiritual entity. The soul is God's gift to the human body and lives on after the body dies. The soul is intended to reflect the attribute of God and, after death of the body, to ascend through the spiritual toward the Unknowable Essence that created the universe. While partnered with the body, on the material plane, the soul develops the divine attributes it will need in the realm of the spirit.

DAY 2062: “The best stories don't come from "good vs. bad" but "good vs. good.” Leo Tolstoy Agree or disagree and what do you think Tolstoy meant?

Good Versus Its Antagonist

The best stories are plots using good versus its antagonist. The antagonist of good can be any cultural concept or personal opinion that no longer contributes to the survival of the individual or group. Good is a positive because it contributes to the physical and/or spiritual survival of the individual or humanity. The antagonist of good is a negative because it doesn't contribute to the individual or groups survival. A superstition can be the antagonist of good. An outdated cultural concept can be the antagonist of good. When writing a story it's up to the author to define the antagonist to good.
