Just want to find out how you guys feel about it. ;)


It depends on what you are seeking. We all have different aspects in life that greatly matter to us. Some people long for imperfect-someone-but-perfect-relationship. Some people feel that their destiny in life lies in the high altitude this career could probably levitate them. Some people seek for all the knowledge in life. Some people believe that God is everything to them... and the list goes on. When you try to judge which is more important, you are like asking '...the arms or the legs, which is more important?'

In fact, they are equally as important because each of these complements other aspects in your life. You could excel in either one of these aspects (say career), but terribly sucked at the other (say relationship), in the end, your fulfilment in life is so much less than one with average career and 'average'-relationship.

What's the use of having strong arms but frail legs?

Generally speaking, sentimental signs like Cancer and Pisces would probably value relationship more than other signs. Signs like Capricorn will probably feel that career is VERY important... probably outweigh that of a relationship.

God is usually fair enough to reimburse our flaws with other talents, so when we decide to work hard on this talent, many times, we unconsciously forgo the effort to improve on our negativity. Over the years, this negativity flare up and because our confidence lies so much in our strength, our mind attempt to 'substitute' our strength onto our flaws, reassuring ourselves of our esteem and self identity. Then, we become fearful of our own flaws because we are so successful in whichever area of life our talent has brought the good harvest, that when we are brought back to reality through our weakness, we are unable to accept it consciously.

E.g.

This rich old man will never accept the fact that he has wrecked personality leading to wrecked relationship. Or a lack of family bonding, leading to family feud. He could probably own the world, yet unable to conquer the realm of relationship... of all levels. It is difficult for him to reverse this trend as it is easier for him (and his mind) to employ the superiority of his monetary richness to compensate whatever failed relationship he has with his love ones.

'You got a screwed up love life...'

'Fcuk you! I got money and you don't!'
