The Resilience and Willpower Battery
This is a metaphor and not a claim of any kind of mystic woo-woo power.
People are born with a fully charged resilience and willpower battery.
Resilience means the passive ability to endure phases or events of stress, being hurt, being depreciated, being lonely, loss, failure, fear and danger, emotional abuse, helplessness and other inclemencies of life without detrimental effects.
Willpower (as already mentioned in entries 134 and 136) is the ability to have self-control and actively force oneself to do unpleasant things and to resist unwanted impulses.
Resilience and willpower use the energy from the battery. When the battery is empty, the person reaches a state, that is known as burn-out. Usually burn-out is considered as job related problem, but it can be as much be the result of an unhappy private life.
There are many ways to recharge the battery, depending on the personality. But for most people, a happy relationship is an especially potent method to recharge it, it is a power charger.
A committed couple, being a safe haven for each other, based upon trust, caring, reliability and responsibility, can strengthen each other in their shared coping with the world around them.
But commitment and perceiving themselves as a unit is the precondition for a relationship to be a recharger for the battery. When people fight to get their needs met, they deplete the battery at least as much as they recharge it. Even worse, when a jerk dominates a woman, then he recharges his battery by emptying hers until she reaches the burn-out.
Therefore it is my quest to find a mindmate, with whom there will be commitment, which enables us to mutually charge our batteries.
