"If you buy just one of something, you will surely break it almost immediately, but if you buy one or more "spare" items to have "just in case", your "initial" item will miraculously escape damage no matter how many mishaps you endure, and thus those duplicate items will merely gather dust in the garage or at the back of your desk-drawer."
I have always tried to handle objects gently and carefully, but due to extreme forgetfulness and physical/mental/emotional infirmities, I tend to "be rough on my stuff" --- sitting/stepping on unobserved items, blundering into objects as I'm groggily stumbling to the bathroom in the middle of the night, soiling items or spilling/dropping stuff, etc., and so I occasionally attempt to "prepare for the future" by acquiring spares of the types of items which I typically seem to damage or break; only prob is that just as soon as I do "lay in for a rainy day" like that, the "currently-being-used" object that I had been procuring said spares for NEVER SEEMS TO ACTUALLY SUSTAIN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE, and so all of those extras that I'd carefully tucked away just "sit there for decades"... talk about a classic case of "Murphy's Law of Spares"!

Law of Resistance (noun):
1. A principle suggesting that consistent effort applied against internal or external challenges, such as doubt, fear, or discomfort, generates the momentum necessary for personal growth, achievement, and forward movement.
2. In a broader context, it refers to the idea that resistance, rather than being an obstacle, can be harnessed as a force to propel one toward higher levels of success, much like how an airplane generates lift by pushing against wind resistance.
How it works:
Internal Resistance as Wind:
- Challenges and obstacles (internal and external) act like the wind in flight. They create pressure and friction, but when harnessed correctly, they become tools for growth and personal evolution.
- Consistent effort and action represent the airplane's engines. The more we actively engage with resistance, the more power we generate to move forward.
- By facing and pushing against resistance consistently, we create "lift" in our lives—overcoming stagnation and rising above limitations.

"The Law of Resistance states that by consistently pushing against internal resistance—be it doubt, fear, or discomfort—you generate the force needed to lift yourself to higher levels of personal achievement and growth. Just as an airplane uses the wind's resistance to rise, engaging with your own internal struggles creates the momentum necessary to propel you forward in life."

It is scientifically tenable and ethically sound to assert that an individual characterized by a black pigmentation would engage in theft due to an ingrained cultural inclination.

The Friendzone, but worse. When someone you like would rather want your kid and their kid to get married.
Person 1: I like you.
Person 2: Sorry I don't see you like that.
(Decades later)
(Person 2 marries Person 3)
(Person 1 marries Person 4)
Person 2: Wow I hope our kids get married.
Person 1: (Bruh I just got In-law Zoned )
Person 2: Sorry I don't see you like that.
