The human being resembles a tree; its root is a covenant with God: that root must be cherished with all one's might.

— Jalaluddin Rumi

[mavidin]

Be impeccable with your words. Being impeccable with your word is the correct use of your energy; it means to use your energy in the direction of truth and love for yourself. If you make an agreement with yourself to be impeccable with your word, just with that intention, the truth will manifest through you and clean all the emotional poison that exists within you.

Don't take anything personally. Personal importance is the maximu expression of selfishness because we make the assumption that everything is about "me." During the period of our education, or our domestication, we learn to take everything personally. We think we are responsible for everything. Me, me, me, always me! ...As you make the habit of not taking anything personally, you won't need to place your trust in what others do or say. You will only need to trust yourself to make responsible choices. You are never responsible for the actions of others; you are only responsible for you.

Don't make assumptions. We make the assumption that everyone sees life the way we do. We assume that others think the way we think, feel the way we feel, judge the way we judge, and abuse the way we abuse. This is the biggest assumptions that humans make. And this is why we have a fear of being ourselves around others. Because we think everyone else will judge us, victimize us, abuse us, and blame us as we do ourselves. So even before others have a chance to reject us, we have already rejected ourselves.

Always do your best. Everything is alive and changing all the time, so your best will sometimes be high quality, and other times it will not be as good. ...I do my best in everything I do and feel. Doing my best has become a ritual in my life because I made the choice to make it a ritual. It's a belief like any other belief that I choose. I make everything a ritual, and I always do my best. Taking a shower is a ritual for me, and with that action I tell my body how much I love it. I feel and enjoy the water on my body. I do my best to fulfill the needs of my body.

'The word girmit represented an Indian pronunciation of the English word "agreement" - from the indenture "agreement" of the British Government with labourers from the Indian subcontinent.

The agreements specified the workers' length of stay in foreign parts and the conditions attached to their return to the British Raj.'

Deaged Oz AU. A different way to deal with Adam Taurus...

"Miss... Weiss? I need to have a private word with you, if that's alright?"

Weiss sighed. "It's just Weiss, Oz... stop calling me miss?"

"At least you know it's me?"

"Yes, but we'd know that anyway. You're a little boy, Oz and your voice sounds like it. What do you need?"

Oz blinked at that, before deciding to ignore the comment. "You stated that you hate your father, Weiss. How far, precisely, does that hatred extend?"

"I want nothing to do with him. Again, why?"

"Because there may be another way to get Mr Taurus away from Miss Belladonna. However, it requires sacrificing your father."

"You think my father's death would get him away from her?"

"Frankly, yes. He was treated abominably by the Schnee Dust Company, under your father's orders. How far do you think he would be willing to go for revenge?"

"I'm not sure I like the idea of using my father's death to buy currency with the Faunus... but then again..."

"If he is dead, he can no longer harm your mother, or your brother. Or you. The way he has treated all of you... was I currently still an adult I may have dealt with him anyway. I'm certain James would look the other way. Considering his attachment to your sister..."

"... he may even help... Oz, I can't say yes to you killing my father. But at the same time, I can't deny that it might be justifiable. I just... don't tell me until after the deed is done? I'm still a trainee huntress and you're still a huntsman."

"And hunters are sworn to end monsters. All monsters, not just the Grimm. I'm sorry, Weiss. I understand if you'll never talk to me again, besides it is merely one possibility amongst a few."

"You are my friend. Blake is my friend. My father may have sired me but he would sell Winter and I both in a heartbeat if it got him some sort of advantage. He locked me away. Oz? Please, leave me alone for awhile? I need to think."

"Of course. My apologies, Weiss." Oz bowed his head and left her to it, the others giving him strange looks on his return.

"What did you tell Weiss?" Yang asked, sounding curious and protective at the same time.

"Nothing you need concern yourself with yet, Miss Xiao Long."

"... Oz, you said you wouldn't keep any more secrets." She sounded vaguely ominous and Oz sighed.

"It isn't a secret. Merely an idea and likely a terrible one. I just worry for Miss Belladonna with the situation with Mr Taurus..."

"We all do."

"Yes, well... part of me hopes to run into him. We have things to discuss."

"... Oz, you're human. He won't want to talk to you."

"We'll see."

In the end, Adam ran into them. He seemed delighted to see Blake... for a given value of delighted, but rather less impressed when confronted by a silver haired ten year old.

"Ah. Mister Taurus, I was rather hoping I might run into you."

"That eager to die, child?" Adam sneered.

"Not exactly, but I believe we could come to a mutually beneficial agreement."

"I doubt it, but say I'm listening, kid. What sort of agreement."

"Myself and my friends work together to deliver Jaques Schnee to you on a silver platter and you let Blake live her own life and make her own choices." Oz's voice could have been carved out of solid stone.

"... I'm listening, kid..."

"I do not know what he did to you, sir. But he is a monster who preys on those weaker than him. Monsters on Remnant get put down."

"... I almost believe you, child. But you're human, why should I trust you to deliver on your end of this bargain."

"Simple. We deliver Jaques Schnee to you and you leave Blake alone. If we do not, you are free to try. I will fight you if I must, but his death at this point would be justifiable germicide."

Adam laughed, harshly. "I'm not scared of you, boy. But if you can do this, I suppose I will owe you enough of a debt to let Blake make her own choices. You ask what he did to me?" Adam raised his blindfold, showing the brand over one eye. Behind Oz, Weiss let out a cry of fury.

"Mister Taurus? If i can locate that brand, promise to use it on my father?"

Adam's eyes lit up, looking at Weiss with far less hostility than any of them had deemed possible.

"For that, little Miss Schnee? You have my respect. If you can do this and your friend can deliver your father... I will leave Blake alone. More, I'll try not to kill any of you. Fair?"

"Entirely." Oz stated, evenly.

"You never did introduce yourself, child... you look almost like she does but not at the same time. Who are you?"

"I believe you would know a previous version of me as Ozaryn."

Adam looked poleaxed.

"You... you're Ozaryn? Or you used to be? Why didn't you say that to start with... you helped found Faunus society..."

The others were staring at him, now, too.

"It was a last resort. As it stands, we deliver you Jaques Schnee and you leave Blake alone."

"Of course. You'll hear from me soon. Sir."

Adam left, back stiff and fists clenched.

"... Oz? Explain. Now."

"I'm not sure how to. Maybe ask Blake when we get back?" Oz demured.

"Uh HUH. Just how many mythical figures were you, anyway?"

"I... I'm not actually sure?" Oz blushed, ducking his head in mortification. "Some of them. not all."

"just those called Oz?" It was Jaune's turn to sigh. "Lets go back, pocket sized... you can explain later."

Differences between a boundary and a demand (disguised as an agreement or boundary) in a toxic relationship:

—

An example of a boundary: “please don’t raise your voice at me. If it happens, I will leave the conversation.”

Boundaries are all about access to you - they are personal.

—

An example of a coercive demand: “don’t share this piece of information (information about your mental or physical health, for example… or even something about your well-being) with other people.”

When someone is trying to tell you how to behave, then you must check in with your personal boundaries if you will consent.

Agreeing to a coercive demand without acknowledgment of your boundaries, especially if emotional/physical/financial pressures are used, is a type of fawning.

Coercive demands are when people are putting responsibility of their mental health onto you. It’s controlling.

Often when we are in trauma bonds or relationships with people who feel like they’re losing control over their life, they will impose control on you.

If you’re a people-pleaser or codependent, you may agree to such demands because you think you’re being kind - but please check in with yourself.

Is the request something you are okay with? Is it imposing on your personal boundaries or their personal boundaries?

Changing Perspectives on Information Sharing in Polyamory

In the landscape of polyamory, where multiple relationships and diverse dynamics coexist, information sharing becomes a crucial aspect of maintaining trust, connection, and emotional safety. For many who enter into polyamory, especially those new to the practice, the assumption might be that full transparency is not only ideal but necessary. The idea of sharing everything with each partner can seem like the best way to ensure honesty and foster deep connections. However, as many discover, perspectives on information sharing in polyamory are far more nuanced and can evolve over time.

The Initial Desire for Transparency

When people first explore polyamory, there’s often a strong impulse to share everything. This might stem from a desire to combat the secrecy often associated with monogamy, where infidelity and hidden desires can cause deep pain. By contrast, polyamory offers the promise of open communication and the freedom to express one’s needs and experiences without judgment. Many find comfort in the idea that nothing is hidden—that every detail of other relationships, encounters, and emotions is laid bare.

This level of transparency can initially feel empowering. It creates a sense of security, where all partners are on the same page, and there are no hidden surprises. For some, this is the ideal scenario: a network of relationships built on complete openness, where everyone knows where they stand.

The Reality of Differing Needs

As relationships deepen and evolve, however, many polyamorous individuals and couples begin to encounter the complexities of information sharing. What once felt like a straightforward commitment to transparency can become more complicated as each partner’s needs, boundaries, and processing styles come into play.

For some, knowing every detail about a partner’s other relationships can be overwhelming or triggering. They might prefer not to hear about intimate moments or emotional exchanges that don’t directly involve them. For others, withholding certain information—even if it seems inconsequential—can feel like a breach of trust or a return to a “double life” mentality, where transparency is compromised.

This divergence in needs can lead to friction, especially when partners have different expectations about what should be shared. It’s not uncommon for polyamorous relationships to evolve from a model of full transparency to one where information sharing is more selective and based on mutual consent and comfort levels.

Shifting Towards Selective Disclosure

As partners navigate these differing needs, many find themselves shifting towards a model of selective disclosure. This doesn’t mean lying or keeping secrets, but rather being intentional about what is shared and why. Selective disclosure is about balancing transparency with respect for each person’s emotional boundaries and processing needs.

For example, one partner might choose to share the broad strokes of a romantic weekend with another partner, without delving into every intimate detail. Another might decide to withhold certain information until they’ve had time to process it themselves, ensuring that they can discuss it in a way that feels grounded and clear.

This approach requires a high level of trust and communication. Partners must be clear about what they need to know, what they don’t want to hear, and what boundaries they need to feel safe and respected. It also requires an understanding that these needs might change over time, as relationships evolve and individuals grow.

The Role of Agreements

To navigate the complexities of information sharing, many polyamorous relationships establish agreements around what is shared and when. These agreements are not set in stone but are revisited regularly to ensure they continue to meet everyone’s needs.

Agreements might cover topics like how much detail is shared about other relationships, how soon after an event or encounter information should be disclosed, and what topics are off-limits. These agreements help set clear expectations and reduce the potential for misunderstandings or hurt feelings.

However, it’s important to recognize that even with agreements in place, the emotional landscape of polyamory can be unpredictable. What felt comfortable at one time might feel overwhelming later, and what was once triggering might become easier to handle with time. Flexibility and ongoing communication are key to navigating these changes.

Embracing Evolving Perspectives

The evolution of perspectives on information sharing in polyamory is a natural part of the journey. It reflects the complexity of human relationships and the need to balance individual and collective needs. While full transparency might feel right at the beginning, many find that their approach shifts over time as they learn more about themselves, their partners, and the unique dynamics of each relationship.

Ultimately, the goal is not to adhere to a rigid standard of transparency but to create a relationship dynamic that feels authentic, respectful, and supportive for everyone involved. This might mean embracing selective disclosure, revisiting agreements regularly, and being open to the possibility that needs and boundaries will continue to evolve.

Conclusion

Information sharing in polyamory is not a one-size-fits-all proposition. It requires ongoing reflection, communication, and a willingness to adapt as relationships grow and change. By embracing the complexities of information sharing, partners can build a foundation of trust that honours both transparency and personal boundaries, ensuring that their relationships remain resilient and fulfilling over time.

Agreement {Jimin x Reader}

Jimin x Reader

You meet Jimin Park under odd circumstances, but given your life situation it does not seem that much out of place. 

~*~*~

“Who does Father have a meeting with today?” you ask as you close the file, handing it to one of your brother’s men, who bows in thanks before leaving wordlessly while Ruth halts his own work as his eyes flicker about the page; trying to remember. 

“A member, from Bangtan. Second-in-command Jimin Park,” Aaron says as he appears in the doorway, shooting Ruth a look who rolls his eyes in response but returns to his work as Aaron gestures for you to follow him, as you do you feel your own two guards follow from a distance.

“Doesn’t Father have a some sort of rivalry with them?” you ask, as you keep pace with his strides, voice low so that others don’t hear you speak about matters that are not to be spoken about carelessly. Aaron scoffs, barely sparing you a glancing as you two turn a corner eyes finding your Father and Jimin further down, near the meeting room.

They speak in whispers, Father’s guards watchful but respectful while it seems Jimin has none; the air heavy and dancing with a tension you haven’t felt since your Mother left.

“Father had a rivalry with Mother’s Family,” he tells you and you nod slightly remembering what happened, realizing your Father would have a rivalry with anyone who is more powerful than he is. 

And then he’ll have them eliminated. But unlike other groups, Bangtan seems to be a group that cannot be eliminated no matter what they try; so their Father decided to ally himself with them.

‘I wonder how this is going to go,’ your mind whispers, as you come to a stop a few feet from them immediately catching Jimin’s eyes, who allows a smile to spread across his lips as his gaze moves from Aaron to you. 

“You must be Y/N,” he states and you nod, shaking his hand in greeting, and he considers something as he looks at you for a brief moment longer, nodding to himself before turning to look at your Father. A cold, frigid look replacing the smile that he had given you. 

Aaron chuckles softly as Father tenses, clearly displeased and uneasy but keeps a neutral expression on his features. “I’ll consider you allying with us for one thing,” he informs your Father who nods immediatly, knowing Jimin even considering it, is a good thing.

“If Y/N here,” he briefly gestures to you, before carrying on, “comes and works for Filter. Myself and Taehyung of course, would love to have them.” You blink in surprise, hands clasping together as your brother’s hand curls around your shoulder, squeezing reassuringly. 

“But you do not get to decide for them, they need to do that on their own,” he says cutting your Father off before he can even agree, and his face turns more red mumbling something under his breath before nodding turning a harsh glare to you. 

“What do you say, doll? Want to leave this hellhole?” Jimin says, a smile on his lips but a hint of something cold swims in his eyes, clashing with the warm feeling his smile give you.

Somehow you know, it is not directed at you. 

You look to Aaron, who flashes you a smile despite a certain look crossing his features once he speaks you know he means it, “your choice little sister. You know what ever your choice is, I stand by it.” 

You look to Jimin once more nodding in agreement which has him rising a brow in question and you quickly correct yourself, ignoring the flush crawling onto your cheeks. “Yes I would like to work for you,” you tell him and he claps his hands together, excitement crossing his features, the coldness fading from his eyes.

“Great, now we can get down to the real reason I am here,” he says just as his men slink out of the shadows, filling their home within a matter of minutes, as Yoongi and Seokjin appear their attention solely on your Father.

Seokjin closes in on him, towering over the man, his words gritting over your nerves, thankful he is not speaking to you as you feel Aaron’s grip tighten on you, Ruth’s voice soon filling the air but quickly falling silent. 

“Your sons will take over, while you and I have some things to discuss, do we not, Hugo?”

In the study of a regulated society, one that keeps Law, The formality of precedence determines how things may be Instructions.

Rules

Instructions

The thing is to keep Rules. Rules is Orders. If your Employment is a Parliament you already know there are Rules because there had to be Elections in order for there to be Employment - Parliamentary security is Building Security if there is no-one about - so if a Rule First is Keep Rules that is Kepp Orders - Rules are Orders and Orders Instruct Work and Rules Regulate. Actually, Regulations Regulate and decide what Orders and Rules may to be Legal. Rules Instruct Business so if you are NASCAR the Rules Instruct Competition, then there are Competition Instructions, the Start Times and Dates, Team Colours and so on. Rules and Regulations work all the way from below the top down that way there is someone to preside and some way that Rules can be Managed and you must be Rugaltions that is Rules above, so above the Rules of Parliament is Presiding and above the Party Rules is the Rules of Parliament. Rules is the compact form we use to refer to all of the above.

Agreements start beneath Instructions while they are worked on. They are Business and Instructions form Agreements for the Beneift Business may be maintained with formalised agreement. Actually Agreements have a process to be ratified that is lifted up, so they work and Orders cannot change them. There is no way to make an Agreement that does not keep Rules, Orders, Agreements, and Regulations or it cannot be Ratified.

So it may be there are Operations Rules, Program Rules, Event Rules, Team Rules, Employee Rules, Supplier Rules, so a particular tyre may have Rules but to comply it must meet all the Rules above, but then it may be it is fourteen laps only in order to keep the supplier agreement, and Rules may Impose a penalty.

The Regulations write a program the same way when it is written out A.N.Z.U.S. writes a calendar. You must obey Rules keep Orders so a repeating calendar is written the same way with Orders. Midshipman most definately cannot run things they keep the ship in order but cannot be allowed near a chart.

This is a chart.

Beginning the start date commencement each part runs on time and then reverse only means go back to the start begin orders we already have this program work. Other countries have their own seperate programs. The world organisation works like gears.

Altogether the Organised society keep Rules it is what is decent, Lawful, and well organised.

Remember above where you work with Rules there are more Rules. Law applied in your Employment is not the same as Law applied above in Parliement. Law is passed down when it is heard and in process lifted above Crown. Law represents Crown as you see a Judge and there is a Crown above a Parliament.

Cross-Purchase Agreements and Entity-Purchase Agreements

There are two types of buy-sell agreements: cross-purchase agreements and entity-purchase agreements. Cross-purchase agreements allow the remaining owners to buy the interests of a deceased or selling owner. Entity-purchase agreements require the business entity to buy the interests of the selling owner. Often life insurance policies are written into the agreement. This life insurance provision provides a guaranteed source of funds to the remaining owners if a partner were to abruptly die.
