  • I’m an exceptional public figure
    “Most people would attempt the attachment styles of Preoccupied (Anxious in children), Dismissive (Avoidant in children), and Fearful (Disorganized in children) towards me. Very few people know how to have the secure attachment style towards me: The four S's of a secure attachment style refer to feeling safe, seen, soothed, and secure. These are the four pillars of attachment.” -Antonio Myers

  • I’m paying reasonable costs of extraordinariness
    “A review published in the Annual Review of Psychology in 2008 found that higher emotional intelligence is positively correlated with:[27]
    Better social relations for children – Among children and teens, emotional intelligence positively correlates with good social interactions and relationships, and negatively correlates with deviance from social norms and anti-social behavior measured both in and out of school as reported by children themselves, their own family members, and their teachers.
    Better social relations for adults – High emotional intelligence among adults is correlated with better self-perception of social ability and more successful interpersonal relationships, with less interpersonal aggression and problems.
    Highly emotionally intelligent people are perceived more positively by others – Other people perceive those with high EI to be more pleasant, socially skilled, and empathic.
    Better academic achievement[52] – Emotional intelligence is correlated with greater achievement in academics as reported by teachers, but generally not higher grades once the factor of IQ is taken into account.
    Better social dynamics at work as well as better negotiating ability.
    Better well-being – Emotional intelligence is positively correlated with higher life satisfaction and self-esteem, and lower levels of insecurity or depression. It is also negatively correlated with poor health choices and behavior.
    Emotionally intelligent people are more likely to have a better understanding of themselves and to make conscious decisions based on emotion and rationale combined. Overall, it leads a person to self-actualization.[53]”

  • Psych ward memories
    “I was also reminiscing within the psych ward about of the henchmen, underlings, flunkeys, right-hand men, minions, stooges, subordinates, cronies, toadies, sidekicks, and lackeys that’s in organized crime. A henchman is a faithful follower or political supporter, especially one prepared to engage in crime or dishonest practices by way of service.” -Antonio Myers

  • The gifted are pushed through the cracks of crime
    “An aptitude is a component of a competence to do a certain kind of work at a certain level. Outstanding aptitude can be considered "talent". Aptitude is inborn potential to perform certain kinds of activities, whether physical or mental, and whether developed or undeveloped. Aptitude is often contrasted with skills and abilities, which are developed through learning.[1] The mass term ability refers to components of competence acquired through a combination of both aptitude and skills.
    According to Gladwell (2008)[2] and Colvin (2008),[3] it is often difficult to set apart the influence of talent from the influence of hard training in the case of outstanding performances. Howe, Davidson, and Sloboda argue that talents are acquired rather than innate.[4] Talented individuals generally show high levels of competence immediately in only a narrow range of activities,[5] often comprising only a single direction or genre.”

  • My Agnostic Christianity as a Christian Agnostic, My Christian Agnosticism as an Agnostic Christian, My Agnostic Theism, and My being a Secular Jesus Follower!

    “Christian agnosticism is a theological position drawing influences from Christianity as well as agnosticism. Christian agnostics hold that it is difficult or impossible to be sure of anything beyond the basic tenets of the Christian faith. They believe that God or a higher power might exist, that Jesus may have a special relationship with God, might in some way be divine, and that God might perhaps be worshipped. This belief system has deep roots in the early days of the Church.[1]”

    Sometimes I have moments of Christian Atheism

    Christian atheism - Wikipedia: "Christian atheism is a form of Christianity that adopts the teachings, narratives, symbols, or communities associated with Jesus without accepting the literal existence of God. Christian atheism takes many forms, and some include an ethics system, are types of cultural Christianity, and take a Christian theological position, such as Thomas J. J. Altizer, in which the theistic belief in the transcendent or interventionist God of Christianity is rejected or absent in favor of finding God totally in the world. Others, such as William Hamilton, follow Jesus in a godless world. Hamilton's Christian atheism is similar to Jesuism. Thomas Ogletree, Frederick Marquand Professor of Ethics and Religious Studies at Yale Divinity School, lists these four common beliefs:[1][2]

    1. The assertion of the unreality of God for our age, including the understandings of God which have been a part of traditional Christian theology.
    2. The insistence upon coming to grips with contemporary culture as a necessary feature of responsible theological work.
    3. Varying degrees and forms of alienation from the church as it is now constituted.
    4. Recognition of the centrality of the person of Jesus in theological reflection."
    5. I have moments of Jesuism: "Jesuism - Wikipedia." "

      It is to restore Jesus' sayings to their original purity.
      It is to eradicate from the Gospels the interpolations of the Middle Ages.
      It is to relate the misconceptions revealed by recent archaeological research.
      It is to present Jesus from an economic viewpoint.
      It is to break through the spell spectral of Cosmic Credulity.
      It is to toll the knell of schism through Jesusism.[13]"
      "Jesuism or Jesusism is a belief system considering itself to be the true representation of the teachings of Jesus and contrasts itself from the teachings of mainstream Christianity.[1] In particular, the term is often contrasted with Pauline Christianity and the mainstream church dogma of Nicene Christianity.[2][3]"

      I have moments of experiencing:

      1. Red-Letter Christians - Wikipedia 2. Christian humanism - Wikipedia

      3. Christian deism - Wikipedia

      4. Jesus movement - Wikipedia

      5. Progressive Christianity - Wikipedia

      6. Spiritual gift - Wikipedia

      7. Secular movement - Wikipedia

    6. My sexual partners literacy
      “What Is a Healthy Sex Life? A healthy sex life doesn't center on how many times you have sex or even how often you orgasm. Good sex centers around intimacy, and sometimes a good massage or holding each other can be enough. Alternatively, this type of touching can add to sexual chemistry, an important part of intimacy.”

    7. My sexual emotions literacy
      “Imagine you’re in a sexual situation, and you know exactly what you want to do physically. Maybe you’re cuddling with a friend and you really want to kiss them, but you don’t want to go further than making out. Or you’re naked with a date and want to give each other orgasms, but you’re a “no” when it comes to blowjobs. Do you say something?
      Yes! Having a good time means being turned on — without being on guard or worrying that your boundaries will be crossed. Sure, talking about boundaries pauses the action for a moment. But communicating what you like and don’t like sexually helps everyone involved have more fun all around. And talking about things you don’t want to do sometimes also involves talking about things you DO want, which can be really sexy.
      But before communicating your sexual boundaries, you need to know what they are. Read about getting in tune with your body and emotions, to learn how to recognize them. And once you know how you’re feeling, you can clue in whoever you’re getting sexual with. Here’s how to do that.
      What’s a Boundary?
      Personal boundaries are the line between what you’re cool with and what’s not OK with you. If you’re not comfortable with something happening to you or around you, that means you have a boundary between yourself and that thing.
      Sexual boundaries are all about:
      How people touch your body — including over or under clothes and your body parts.
      How people see your body — such as being naked, partially naked, or dressed in a sexy way.
      How people treat you in sexual situations — including how they speak to you and what your relationship is.
      What you’re comfortable doing to others — such as what you touch on their body.
      Communicating How Sexual You Want to Get
      Choose from these categories to explain what you want to do and what you don’t want to do.
      Clothing Boundaries
      What clothes you want to keep on.
      What touching you don’t want — including unwanted types of touch over the clothes and under the clothes.
      Example: “It would be hot if you touched my boobs under my shirt, but I want you to stay over my bra.”
      Body-Part Boundaries
      Which of your body parts are off limits.
      What body parts of theirs you don’t want to see or touch.
      Example: “I’m into touching each other under our underwear, but I’m not ready to see you naked.”
      Activity Boundaries
      What physical touch and kinds of sex you’re comfortable with, such as heavy petting, fingering, hand jobs, and oral sex.
      What types of other sexual activities you’re comfortable with — such as taking photos, saying kinky nicknames, practicing BDSM, or involving other people.
      Example: “I really want to get naked and touch each other all over, but I’m not ready to go down on each other or have sex tonight. Also, you can call me [X], but I don’t like when you talk to me like [Y].”
      Setting — and Resetting — Boundaries
      Part of what you communicate has to do with what the other person does. For instance, if you’re having sex and your partner says they want to have anal sex, that’s a time to speak up about whether you want that.
      Be on the lookout for any signs of sexual coercion. If your boundaries are being pushed, slow down and step back. You might be with a person who doesn’t respect your boundaries or who just isn’t able to hear them.
      Finally, sexual situations are dynamic. You might have a miscommunication, and need to restate your boundaries. Or you might suddenly feel uncomfortable and change your mind about your boundaries as you go. That’s totally OK! You can set a new boundary at any time. It’s YOUR body, and YOU get to decide what you do with it!”

    8. My biology 🧬 makes perfect sense to me
      “Voluntary childlessness, also called being childfree, describes the voluntary choice not to have children.
      In most societies and for most of human history, choosing not to have children was both difficult and undesirable (except for celibate individuals). The availability of reliable contraception along with support provided in old age by one's government or by one's savings rather than one's family has made childlessness an option for some people, though they may be looked down upon in certain communities.
      According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the word childfree first appeared sometime before 1901.[1] It entered common usage among feminists during the 1970s,[2] and was described as a 'trend' in 2014 in Psychology Today online magazine.[3] The suffix -free denotes the freedom and personal choice of those to pick this lifestyle. The meaning of the term childfree extends to encompass the children of others (in addition to one's own children) and this distinguishes it further from the more usual term "childless", which is traditionally used to express the idea of having no children, whether by choice or by circumstance.[4] The term child-free has been cited in Australian literature to refer to parents who are without children at the current time. This may be due to them living elsewhere on a permanent basis or a short-term solution such as childcare.[5]”

    9. Soothing my present and my future
      “Self-compassion is a process of self-kindness[clarification needed] and accepting suffering as a quality of being human. It has positive effects on subjective happiness, optimism, wisdom, curiosity, agreeableness, and extroversion.[54] Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer identified three levels of activities that thwart self-compassion: self-criticism, self-isolation, and self-absorption; they equate this to fight, flight, and freeze responses.[55] Parenting practices contribute to the development of self-compassion in children. Maternal support, secure attachment, and harmonious family functioning all create an environment where self-compassion can develop. On the other hand, certain developmental factors (i.e., personal fable[jargon]) can hinder the development of self-compassion in children.[56]
      Authentic leadership centered on humanism and on nourishing quality interconnectedness increase compassion in the workplace to self and others.[57].”

    10. Soothing my adolescent self
      “Christianity is an Abrahamic monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. It is the world's largest and most widespread religion with roughly 2.4 billion followers representing one-third of the global population.[1][2] Its adherents, known as Christians, are estimated to make up a majority of the population in 157 countries and territories,[3] and believe that Jesus is the Son of God, whose coming as the Messiah was prophesied in the Hebrew Bible (called the Old Testament in Christianity) and chronicled in the New Testament.[4]”
