There are things I still need to learn, things I’m genuinely sorry for, and things I am beyond proud of. I’m still growing. I’m not stagnant or moving backwards at all. I’ll always be a work in progress.
I’ll keep moving forward knowing that God will always be by my side. Guiding me and helping me with all the battles that I need to overcome. I’ll be swimming the deepest ocean, climbing the highest mountain, and walking the treacherous road knowing that I will always be guided by God.
I will always be gifted and blessed.

I get that in general a lot of kids shows do utilize the protagonists ('good guys') in ways where they're supposed to be role models, particularly because some do have a "lesson of the week" where the character does bad things, then clearly learns and explains what they should've done instead by the end of the episode.
That has just... never been how TDP has operated, and I don't get how and why people think we're supposed to take what anyone does in the show as being unilaterally good or evil. Particularly in arc 2; any moral simplicity that was hanging on by a thread in arc 1 has been taken out back and shot numerous times by now.
TDP very rarely calls anything Evil or Good, and when it does, it's always filtered through the characters' biases, and rarely does more then 2-3 characters ever have the same opinion on something for the same reasons. Soren and Rayla, who have inverted character arcs, are some of the only characters to ever use the term villain / good guys or bad guys, and are two of the most staunchly black-and-white thinking characters, heavily to their detriment, I might add, in terms of coping with the increasing complexity of their lives. They have cognitive biases. They're not always right, and are frequently wrong. This is true for everyone in the show.
The show refuses to condemn murder, indirectly and directly condemns the expulsion of humans from Xadia routinely (Evrkynd being a city for everyone, Ezran arguing with Karim, who is the most wrong about the most things), and shows a variety of viewpoints on all things.
The show understands that the choices people make—whether the same character trait is a flaw or a strength—as well as 'moral' choices are all circumstantial.
Are you wrong to burn people alive? Mostly yes (2x07, 6x08) but also no (3x09). Are you wrong to kill people? Sometimes yes, sometimes no, sometimes whether it's 'wrong' or 'right' doesn't even factor in. Are you wrong to use dark magic, or use the dangerous Staff of Ziard, or coin someone and condemn them to a 'fate worse than death'? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Is lying or hiding the truth to protect someone wrong? Sometimes yes (1x06, 2x03, 3x03, 5x01, 7x04, 7x06) sometimes no (1x02, 2x03, 6x06, 5x08, 7x08).
Are you doing the right thing?
Do you have no choice? Is that true, or is that just what you think, or how you rationalize it yourself?
When is it right or cowardly to leave (Viren, Lissa, Rayla, Callum, Ezran, the Cosmic Council, the offer made to Karim's troops)? When should you stay? When do you decide to share resources (2x05) to your potential detriment or withhold them in the name of protecting yourself and your own people (Xadia and magic)? At what point(s) do you prioritize your own pain and grief, or someone else's (i.e. the Keeper vs Callum vs Ezran)? At what point is someone too dangerous or 'too far gone' to keep alive (Runaan about Harrow, Ezran about Aaravos)? At what point do you decide someone cannot change? When do you refuse to change (Karim, Terry) who you are no matter what happens, and when do you decide that you must (Ezran, Soren)? When is it wrong to use illusions to trick someone (3x09 and 7x06) and when is it more reasonable (2x03)? When should you be willing to sacrifice others (Rayla with her family, Runaan and Rayla with Callum, Soren with Viren) and when should you refuse? When should you sacrifice yourself, and when it is wrong to? Did you betray them, or did they betray you, or both (usually both)? When should you betray or stay loyal to your family? What is the right thing to do?
The show, tbh, doesn't know, at least 90% of the time. It's not interested in knowing. It's interested in exploring. That's the whole point. At most, it says you should work towards harm reduction, but what constitutes harm, and what peace looks like, is also something that greatly differs for all the characters.
Rayla is willing to sacrifice the love of her life, Ezran is willing to create weapons of mass destruction and wield one, and Callum used a torture spell on someone when he absolutely did not have to. The idea that any of the protagonists are meant to be paragons of unblemished virtue who are always 100% right, or that any of the antagonists do not canonically have a good point of contention with anything that's happened and are always 100% wrong, is reductive to everything the show is and explores, because it is Quite Literally not what the show does, ever tbh.
They literally spelled it out this past season as a core theme; I don't think they needed to have a character directly point it out every time a main character did something that was Kinda Fucked Up or Complicated But Understandable to know that the show knows it was Canonically Fucked Up or Complicated But Understandable.
There is not a single character or action in TDP that is always right, and there is not a singular character or action in TDP that is always wrong. Hell, even narrowing it down to "this is 'right' or 'wrong'" feels counterintuitive because it's so subjective within the narrative.
Every choice the characters make is often well reasoned, aligns with their values and world views, and fits into how they work through problems. Every choice has benefits and consequences, for them or for others. That doesn't mean it's Right for everyone involved. That doesn't mean it's Wrong for everyone involved. That's what makes the show interesting. Everything has nuance. Everything has Complexity. I'm not interested in a simplified version of TDP. I'm interested in the show as is.
I hope you are, too.
#tdp#the dragon prince#analysis series#analysis#mine#im so tired#s7 spoilers#like i truly cannot fathom watching viren walk away from claudia or the illusion plan in 7x06 and thinking#'the show wants us to think this was 100% the right thing to do no ifs ands or buts' like. what#like rayla thematically has always been an antagonist#it just always seems like ppl are like. the show doesn't know the magic system is unfair#or the cosmic council are gonna be good guys. and it's like. the show has known the magic system is unfair since s2#that's the point of s2. the cosmic council will be dismantled. they have to be. that's why they're there#it's a hand of god narrative structure. they executed a child for no reason. where else would we go#have a lil faith#'humans can do whatever they want bc they were oppressed' that's not how life & morality works#just look at world affairs (atrocities in gaza)

actually i loved 11's run, i think a lot of it gets just wildly misinterpreted because when 10 behaved like that the narrative might semi-subtly nod to him being a dick but it didn't really hold him to account and preferred to focus on how sad he was about this latest problem he had caused himself. whereas 11. does not get that. but i think the parallels to 10 and the learned expectation that the story approves of his actions or at least will be too chickenshit to openly admit he fucked up makes people somehow think the series/characters/writers approve of however he's messed up this time.
especially the amy thing. the doctor accidentally makes a child fall in love with him and she basically goes mad and self-destructive because of it and is a dick to her everyman boyfriend while the doctor is never going to marry her because what the fuck. i suspect a lot of fandom does not want to think too much about what the obvious comparison being made here is.
if you approach 11’s era assuming it was written as a weird wish fulfillment fantasy by the worst human who ever lived then yeah that’d probably be horrible. i’d hate it too if i had done that. but to me it was just not pulling the punches on the "oh my god what the fuck have you done this time" things that the doctor occasionally does. he fucks up, it causes problems later on, but we are not just sweeping it all under the rug at the end of the episode while he cries at the camera and goes back to being a straightforward hero. which i love! but i also feel like this is for many other viewers the reason they get mad at/about 11.
#dw#eleventh doctor#i say this like i didn't ship 11/amy a bit but that's because it's messed up and knows it.#11 = 7 which explains why i liked him so much. shady bastard yet also has hearts of solid gold and i enjoy the deliberate dissonance.#anyway 'the text approves of everything 11 does' is to me a wild take that is so clearly wrong that it baffles me.#it's like 'rtd's doctor was just some guy and moffat's was god' WTF how can you possibly arrive at this conclusion in good faith?#it's not even wrong. it's not on the same planet as wrong. i don't even... HOW COULD YOU THINK THAT?!#did you not see Listen? or The God Complex? I know you must have seen Voyage of the Damned and Last of the Time Lords!#but i digress#slightly#*leaves*#*comes back in the room* BUT WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT? walk me through this. make a little powerpoint thing to help.

When God Uses What You Broke
“Then they sat down to eat a meal. Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was a company of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead with their camels, bearing spices, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry them down to Egypt.” — Genesis 37:25 (NKJV)
If Abraham and Sarah had trusted God’s timing, there would have been no Ishmael. But they got impatient, they tried to help God out and what they birthed in haste ended up haunting generations. Ishmael was not God’s plan, but God is still God, even in our missteps. One of His names is Redeemer and the Redeemer does not discard your story, He rewrites it.
Fast forward three generations. Joseph is sitting in a pit, betrayed by his brothers, stripped of his robe, and sold out for silver. And who shows up in that exact moment? “A company of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead… on their way to carry them down to Egypt.” (Genesis 37:25 NKJV) Did you catch that? The descendants of Abraham’s mistake became the transportation for Joseph’s destiny. The very thing that was born out of impatience became the vehicle to move Joseph into position. Not just for survival, but for purpose, promotion and preservation. God turned the mess Abraham made into the miracle Joseph needed.
So hear this: it’s not over. Not because of what you did, what went wrong or how far off course you feel. Your mistake isn’t bigger than God’s plan and your detour isn’t stronger than His direction. What you thought disqualified you might be the very thing He uses to deliver others.
Joseph didn’t just survive Egypt, he ruled it. He didn’t just make it out, he made a way for others to make it through… his brothers, his father, his entire bloodline. The ones who threw him in the pit were the ones he later saved from the famine. That is how redemption works and what grace looks like when God is in full control.
So lift your eyes, look again. That caravan of Ishmaelites? That might be the hand of God using your past to deliver you into your future. He’s not done with you and He’s not intimidated by what you messed up. He is the God who redeems broken plans and turns them into unstoppable purposes. And when He does it, you won’t be the only one who benefits. Your family will eat because you didn’t quit, your legacy will rise because you stayed faithful, your pain will have purpose because you trusted Him in the pit.

Galatians 5:16-25 (NASB1995). [16] “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. [17] For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please. [18] But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. [19] Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, [20] idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, [21] envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. [22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, [23] gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. [24] Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. [25] If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.”
“Walking in the Spirit” by In Touch Ministries:
“The Holy Spirit supplies everything we need in order to follow Christ.”
“The Holy Spirit is one of God’s most precious gifts to His beloved children. The Spirit takes up residence within believers at the moment of salvation and empowers each one to overcome sin and live for God’s glory. (See John 15:26-27.) However, the Holy Spirit’s power can be hindered or ignored.
Walking by the Spirit denotes reliance upon Him. He leads the way and we follow. As He speaks, we listen, heed His warnings, and obey His directions. His way is a path of surrender, which, though sometimes difficult, leads to fullness of life. God’s Holy Spirit not only guides but also enables us, supplying everything needed for living righteously and producing His remarkable fruit in us (Gal. 5:22-23).
Being led by the Spirit should be the natural lifestyle of all sons and daughters of God. We should intentionally seek to maintain an awareness of His presence throughout the day. As we do, He makes us sensitive to the things of God and provides understanding about the situations and people in our life.
Take a walk with the Spirit today. Learn to recognize His voice by spending time in the Word and in prayer. Focus your thoughts on Him, asking for His guidance and looking expectantly for His leading.”

2 Corinthians 5:6-8 NKJV 6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

If you’re wondering why you keep doing all this self healing, yet year in year out you’re still plagued with anxiety, depression, still struggling mentally, still dealing with toxic relationships…It’s because you are yet to familiarise yourself with the one who can help you and you keep listening to the one that will hurt you. When you understand where you can find deep love and healing (and it’s not from this world). It’s from the source. The source that is available to us all, the source that is God. The more you fluff this up and feel more comfortable praying to the ‘universe’ the more you are actually missing out on this transformation. You need to go straight to the source. The more you lean on the next salary bracket to bring you peace and happiness, the more you suffer, the more you lean on relationships, secs, attention to fill you up, the more you miss out on your transformation. You’re looking for the world to fill you in places that can only be filled with God. This is the underlying truth. Until you receive God’s love, you will seek it from everywhere and everyone outside of yourself. Until you realise this you will struggle. And year in year out, you will seek answers and try to find healing in something that is so blatantly obvious. You need God. You can’t do this alone. You can’t lean on your own understanding, because time and time again its lead you to suffering.
I've created a free-guide to learn more about finding your way back home with God.

Power of Positivity
April 11th, 2021
I wrote this article three years ago and this is the revised version.
My life is my masterpiece. I’m very grateful to those who reach out to me when they hear and feel my “thoughts” even if I don’t say a single word. It’s a never ending battle for me as I have a mood condition, however, I will continue to walk with faith in God and hope that better days are coming.
Do know that in life, there will always be roadblocks along the way as they are a part of your journey through life.
The most important thing is that we continue to have faith in God, count our blessings each day, be grateful for what we have, and even though we don’t get what we pray for, rest assured that God will give you something much better than whatever you have prayed for.
Do things with great love, enjoy the best things in life which are usually free, always see the brighter side of life, and always believe in the power of prayers.
Pay forward whatever you have received from people ~ whether in cash, in kind, knowledge or skills. Never expect something in return. A simple form of gratitude from them like “thank you “ or “salamat” should be enough to make you happy and contented. That only means that they have appreciated whatever you have given them. Enjoy the little things in life as they are the ones which usually make people happy.
Blessings to everyone and we will all get through this Pandemic. Once again, the world will be a better place if we all help each other.
Maganda ang buhay! Laban lang palage and always pray as prayers work all the time!
