48 days agofe often presents us with difficult choices, and one of the most complex is the balance between self-defense and self-lost. Self-defense is not merely about physical protection; it is about preserving one’s dignity, values, and existence when confronted with harm or injustice. It is a natural right, a survival instinct, and a form of courage that ensures we are not erased by the weight of oppression or aggression.
Yet, in the pursuit of defending ourselves, there lies the danger of self-lost. This happens when we cross the thin line between protection and destruction—when the act of standing up for ourselves transforms into actions that compromise our integrity, morality, or humanity. True self-defense should not leave us broken, bitter, or guilty; it should strengthen us, making us wiser and more resilient.
Choosing self-defense means valuing your life, your peace, and your purpose. Choosing self-lost means surrendering to anger, fear, or revenge, which only robs you of inner freedom. The question then becomes: how do we defend ourselves without losing ourselves? The answer lies in wisdom, balance, and discipline. To protect yourself while remaining true to your values is the highest form of victory—because in safeguarding your life, you also safeguard your soul.
