Pride's Obituary
» Monday, December 28th, 2009 at 07:16am |
"Abashed the devil stood, and thought how awful goodness is."
- John Milton
Being "smart", "right", "good", and "helpful"... there have been times when I've held great stock in most of these so-called "virtues".
Now I find little else more disgusting, despicable, and degenerate.
Looking back, I've realized several things:
Never was I more ignorant than when I thought myself bright.
Never was I more wrong than when I considered myself right.
Never was I more immoral than when I believed myself good.
And never more discouraging than my unsolicited advice helpful could.
On the contrary:
Proclamations of my assumed Knowledge made me the Fool.
Demonstrations of my righteousness made me the Outcast.
Advocations of my dogmatism made me the Villain.
And acts of unsolicited advice or aid made me the Hypocrite.
Thus, an important lesson I've learned is this:
"Pride in a Virtue makes it more base than its opposing Vice."

I'm wondering why the site is being shut down as well. Is it because there are very few people posting comments or is it a different reason?

Jay, you can't even imagine how much your articles have changed my view on life. It's because of you that I began understanding women better and it's also because of you that made me buy Think and Grow Rich, Rich Dad..Poor Dad, Strangest Secret, As a Man Thinketh etc
THANKS A LOT.

I'm sorry I think it's datebeautifulwomen.com,
the reason I'm asking is because everytime I try to connect to this website it takes me to that one.

Jay, I've been viewing your materials ever since you had the Cool Guy Forums up and running. I remember you mentioning that your own life fell short from the things you were saying. Even if your life doesn't fully live up to the things you write about, I still think you're doing a great service for people. The information you've been presenting is definitely making a difference in peoples lives.

Jay,I too have discovered this website and ever since everything went for the best.
Look ,I know I've been asking dumb questions ever since you set and inbox and even before.But you see you'r answers helped me alot.And I'm very thankfull that you actually took the time to give me a straight answer and not a generic one.
Bottom line ,the information on this website is like no other place on the internet.And,it's not just about women,it's a whole lotta things wrapped in one.

Your support is appreciated, guys.
My hosting is now good for at least another month, so I can leave the site up.
But since it's looking like the amount of time I will be able to give to the site will be a lot less than in the past, I will do my best to post as often as I can until I have the opportunity to make it a regular thing again.
P.S. datebeautifulwomen.com is owned by Marius Panzarella.
