“One of the tricks is to have the exposition conveyed in a scene of conflict, so that a character is forced to say things you want the audience to know - as, for example, if he is defending himself against somebody's attack, his words of defense seem Justified even though his words are actually expository words. Something appears to be happening, so the audience believes it is witnessing a scene (which it is), not listening to expository speeches. Humor is another way of getting exposition across.” IfsKnowsWayWantBelieveCharacterSeemsAudienceExampleListeningSceneConflictSpeechHappeningsDefenseTricksJustifiedAnother Way Author:Ernest Lehman
“Lord, help us to see in your crucifixion and resurrection an example of how to endure and seemingly to die in the agony and conflict of daily life, so that we may live more fully and creatively. You accepted patiently and humbly the rebuffs of human life, as well as the torture of the cross. Help us to accept the pains and conflicts that come to us each day as opportunity to grow as people and become more like you-make us realize that it is only by frequent deaths of ourselves, and our self-centered desires that we can come to live more fully, only by dying with you that we can rise with you.” PeopleHumansWellsMaySelfHelpingPainDesireDiesOpportunityGrowsRealizingAcceptingLordDyingExampleLike YouConflictCrossesEndureAcceptedHuman LifeTortureEach DayDaily LifeResurrectionAgonySelf CenteredCrucifixionRebuff Author:Mother Teresa
“If you haven’t already clearly defined your values, you may find yourself making choices that conflict with what you want. If, for example, honesty is a big thing for you, but you hang out with liars, there’s a conflict. When your actions conflict with your values, you’ll end up unhappy, frustrated, and despondent. In fact, psychologists tell us that nothing creates more stress than when our actions and behaviors aren’t congruent with our values.” IfsWantMayEndsFactsBigsActionValuesChoicesHavensHonestyExampleConflictBehaviorStressWhat You WantUnhappyDefinedFinding YourselfLiarsHanging OutFrustratedBig ThingsOur ActionsPsychologistMaking ChoicesDespondent Author:Darren Hardy
“There is an idea in Kabbalah that the creation of the world is created through space. God is an ever present Being, and in order for anything outside of Him to exist, like this world for example, there needs to be what's called a TumTum[a], or a withdrawal of Godly-like. And that withdrawal happens not by connection but actually by separation. Conflict. And in the gap of that conflict is where the world is situated. That's where the world is created and lived.” WorldNeedsIdeasHappensOrderSpaceExampleCreationThis WorldConflictConnectionsSeparationGapsGodlyWithdrawalKabbalahCreation Of The World Author:Matisyahu
