Title: Can you see me now??
Post by: Kadesh on September 03, 2009, 04:52:10 PM
 
Prey hides. And I used to be prey.

  Truely?  Do you consider a trap door spider pray?  Or a lioness hiding in the deep grasses of the Sevanahha?  How about closer to home and I use a moutain lion hiding high up to drop on to unsuspecting prey?  Still think only prey hides?  I am not trying to contradict you dear Kadesh, but everything hides for one reason or anouther, and it is that reason that defines the hider.  Now while this would be a great debate I think this thread should get  :focus: .  Of course if some wish to begin a new thread on this subject by all means, feel free to do so.


 This quote inspired this thread... so here we go!

 I wasn't saying that prey is the only thing that hides. I was simply saying that, in the past, when I've had to hide, it was because I was prey. I was young and scared, so I hid. I'm not ashamed of that, but I'm stronger now, and I'd liken myself more to the tiger vid that was posted on here somewhere. Hiding and waiting to attack.

I used to hide myself when I felt insecure and that was what?.. 3 years ago? Then I discovered brute strength and strong language and stuff like that and next thing I know I discover myself - I mean, I never really knew myself till I got the chance to express myself. And fark the police, he deserved it.

Even sharks and other animals hide when they are young, weak, and vulnerable. Very few creatures are simply born with their full compliment of strengths, skills, and knowledge.

True, and the more vicious the predator, the more devious it is.

 Devious? Hmm... I'd like to think I am... well, scratch that.... I know I'm not. I'm an honest, open person.... but fuck with me or my loved ones........... and Devious would become a mild term..........

Well, when u do become a predator.. I remember the time I got hit with a knife, see, in our school a fair fight was a loose term that applied to fights like 10 versus one, and you could guess who that one was. So what I did was - I got beaten up for different shyt I did - like farking someone's girlfriend or calling someone's mom a dirty lady that looks for hobos to give them free blowjobs, I got beaten up real good by the group, then, when I got better, I found the separate members of the group and taught them what pain's all about. Though in the later years no one really wanted to mess with me, they though I was suicidal and didn't give a fark about pain. If they knew that was because of some chick they would laugh though.

 I need to correct my last post... Mess with me and I shrug it off... mess with my loved ones and it's a different story. I've been through a lot, but for some reason, I never do anything about the things done to me...

  That sounds like the maternal instinct kickin in and that something not even I would take lightly.  Nothing is more viciouse than when it fights for something it cares deeply for.  Instance, where we would likely give in when our lives are on the line and all seems lost, we persever when it is the lives of our families?  Why?  Because it is someone else who depends on you.

  As for prey, well I guess I was until about 13.  Up till then I was a shy lovable little kid, but then society happened and now I am the SOB you all know and love today.

I have no idea what the purpose of this thread is so um...

Could it be said that all animals hide for different reasons and in different ways? Am I on the right track?  :-P

Like all you guys seem to hide until the time is right to strike, Kadesh you seem to hide until you feel it's safe to show your face again similarily, I know I hide until I've understood a situation enough to fit into it. Some hide because they feel insecure, others because they are scheming and still others hide because it is how they approach change.

Wait... now I'm just confused, what's going on here?  :wink:

Hiding is part of a larger tactic. Whither it be escape, defense or attack.

 It depends on what's going on. If I'm in the woods... I'm hiding because someone is stalking me... or because I'm waiting. But it's not always even that I hide physically... sometimes I just hide psychically. I hide what I am... or whatever power I have. (I feel silly as hell saying that last one. Not because it's not true, but simply because ... well, look at me and try to picture power of any kind. lol)  I don't hide as much as I used to, though. And I need to learn more about that and why I don't... and what I can do to stop hiding.

  I guess it has been so long since I have hidden anything that I have forgotten that feeling.  I am always here, out in the open, prepared to take on anything that comes my way. (No it is not bravado which compel me to speak, but simple fact, this is who I am)  One thing about me, you will always see me coming, and I always give a person time to prepare themselves, IF I am attacked from those in hiding they better make it good, for I have a thick hide and know how to take some pretty serious blows, both physically and mentally. 

  I guess it's just because I enjoy a good conflict, where once, oh so long ago, I shied away, I now welcome it with open arms, both physically and mentally.  To me hiding of any kind is simple postponement of a deed that needs to be done.  To me (I will stress that TO ME, and only ME) hiding is a show of my weakness, an admittance that I can not handle those difficult things which come my way.  I hid once from my responsibility, and someone else payed for it, no they are not dead, no they did not suffer much, but they did suffer, and all because I was too scared to man up and do what needed to be done.  Never again have I hidden, I have said it before, but allow me to say it again.

  I AM MUERTE AND I AM HERE FOR ALL TO SEE.  TO THOSE WHO WOULD PIT YOURSELVES AGAINST ME COME, FOR THOSE WHO SEEK MY ASSISTANCE COME, I AM EASY TO FIND, AND I WILL NOT HIDE OR RUN.

  I am both a valuable friend and an equally horrible nemesis, and I will allows allow others to chose which they wish to be.

 I wish I had that level of courage, Muerte. I really do. I've started writing down the deep, dark parts of me that I don't want to admit even to myself. It's helped some, I suppose. But I still need to figure it out.
