Carstensen later-life couples often prioritize stability in their relationship over disagreement; they communicate gently and avoid overt conflict. They prioritize emotional closeness and positivity in interactions and tend to minimize negative exchanges. But this reduction in visible conflict can mean grievances and resentments are unresolved and can become a pattern of indefinite avoidance. When important concerns are unresolved, partners may feel unheard, isolated, or disconnected, even within long-standing relationships. Is this a wise recognition of time being finite and reaching for love or a shortcoming in addressing problems? Is talking enough?”ClosedNicola asked 6 hours ago • Divine Guidance16 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Many families have a “conspiracy of silence,” where airing upsets is seen as disloyal. Men are expected to absorb pain and appear strong; women to maintain family harmony. This can lead to resentment, passive-aggression, emotional withdrawal, or illness. Fear of distress or abandonment often motivates a withdrawn silence. Talking about problems is the pop-psychology remedy but with dubious success as it often backfires. Perhaps changing the “conspiracy” seems to requires self-differentiation, boundaries, emotional regulation, and additional support before opening up. Is it wiser to build these qualities first, perhaps requesting divine support in doing so, before airing grievances?”ClosedNicola asked 6 hours ago • Divine Guidance15 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “‘You create your own reality’ has become a New Age mantra. It’s really though referring to a person’s inner experience, not an outside situation or circumstances. However, there do seem to be some leverage points on creating the inner experience and on intentional action. Perception depends on: what is selected for attention (based on threats, rewards, goal-relevant cues), questioning first impressions as final truth, moderation of strong emotional reactions (defensiveness, overreaction, etc.), cognitive appraisal (based on beliefs and past experiences), and then a story that integrates it all. To what extent can a person influence this process of constructing their inner reality for the better?” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 8 hours ago • Divine Guidance14 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Many people struggle with setting personal emotional or opinion and perspective boundaries. They fear rejection, worry about appearing selfish, or grew up in environments where boundaries weren’t modeled. It’s common to feel guilty initially when enforcing new limits, even though boundaries are fundamentally about self-respect. Is one aspect of Divine Principle for living #7 (…meet your responsibility to be your soul’s guardian, and take care of its safety and protection from harm) to be bold in holding the line, even when it feels uncomfortable, without being blunt, cold, or confrontational? Is this about practicing self-love through behavior, not over-accommodating or over-sacrificing?”ClosedNicola asked 3 months ago • Divine Guidance94 views0 answers0 votesAccording to Merriam-Webster online dictionary: “Envy means discontented longing for someone else’s advantages. Jealousy means unpleasant suspicion, or apprehension of rivalship.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Human Corruption657 views0 answers0 votesIn the Bible, In James 3:14 (NLT), he cautions those who wish to be wise, “… if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don’t cover up the truth with boasting or lying.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Human Corruption715 views0 answers0 votesThe website Edubirdie.com in an article called, The Peculiarities Of Envy Sin, had this to say about envy: “Dante’s Inferno depicts envy to be one of the most unforgivable sins that a person can commit. It is heavily depicted to be connected to pride, and this is evident based on Dante’s organization of Hell.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Human Corruption530 views0 answers0 votesMarilyn Monroe said: “Success makes so many people hate you.

Is it the most corrosive and dangerous indulgence?
