The Dark Side

Well...I took in consideration making one of these blogs so brace yourself guys.

What is the dark side?

According to Wikipedia or the author who wrote it, the dark side (Star Wars), is portrayed as the evil aspect of the force. The dark side draws its energy from aggressive feelings, all strong emotions even positive emotions such as love, to create purely harmful energy.
The dark side allows emotion to empower itself.

* Jedi, therefore, forsake passion and emotional attachment while the evil Sith feed off of it~

Rock Bottom:

* Running away from God and not wanting to turn back to Him no matter what
* Being stubborn, hard-headed
* Being caught up with worldly things and enjoying it too much
* Having the mindset of no one to turn to
* Depressed, bottling up everything

Who is part of the dark side?
The dark side is distinguished by the ones who are:

* Currently at rock bottom
* Climbing out of rock bottom slowly
* The ones expected by their families to do great and be successful but unfortunately do the opposite greatly
* Masters of disobeying their parents
* Not in good terms with their parents at all
* Not letting go of their bad habits

Red Lightsaber:
The symbolic meaning of the red lightsaber is the pride that we carry. Our pride speaks for us, and verbal communication is said without hesitation. Our nonverbal communication conveys staring people down. It's like watching 2 gunslingers go at it just walking past eachother.

When do you become part of the dark side?

- When everything is supposedly "perfect" in your life.

The dark side is the trail that leads to rock bottom, no reference to the wrestling move that the most electrifying man does. The long trail that leads all the way down is usually a long trial that the individual is too stubborn to fix and is passive about. He/she just puts it all behind them. As time progresses the trial gets larger and harder to overcome while more trials are added to it. Basically, you're digging a hole that will be tough to get out of, but not impossible...

The trials could be anything. The possibilities are endless. However, the one trial that sticks out the most is not being on good terms with your parents.

Here is an example from the Dark Side Vendetta,
"The trail to the dark side is like driving your car on a rainy night and the road is slippery. Suddenly your tires aren't biting the road and you start swerving. You try to counter steer but the rain starts getting heavy and the chances of not getting into an accident become very slim. Trying and trying and trying everything you can to straighten out your car to make it lined up with the road become difficult. You're running out of ways because it "seems" like there is no way to fix it. So you end up crashing."

How do you join?

If you're wondering how you join the dark side, the answer is... you don't...

...YOU BECOME!

Why conform to the dark side?

It all dwindles down to the Sith Conduct.

Here’s a list of why you become part of the dark side and possibly stay:

* Given up on about almost everything
* Hopeless
* Attention to detail
* Pride
* Lethargic
* Denial

How does leaving the dark side work?

My answer?

Simple...When your relationship with God is awesome. Your walk with God is consistent and you’re counting it all joy.
Having an accountability partner is a great way to start because you both can edify each other and both mature spiritually.


However it doesn't just stop there...going back to dark side is effortless but can be also avoidable.

What keeps the Dark Side together?

Because the dark side watches each others back...

Nobody is left hanging whatsoever. Everyone always lends a helping hand no matter what the cost is. However, at times we get caught up in trying to help that certain individual and we forget about everything else/everyone else, such as priorities with family. As i previously stated, trouble with parents is quite a trial. Setting are priorities straight is a challenge in itself.

God always comes first in your life.

Family is second...



This is just a tad bit of info about the dark side. I will continue writing about it and dwell upon some other issues that coincide with it.
I encourage you to give feedback.
I'm open to questions and what not.
