Pick a Weapon Reading: Who is your greatest enemy/what is your biggest obstacle in life?

Pick a weapon that draws you the most. If you can't pick between two, then look at both readings. This is a general reading so not everything will resonate. Only take what resonates and leave what doesn't behind.

#1

Your biggest enemy is yourself. You often doubt yourself and question your abilities. You also frequently put yourself down. You likely suffer from low self-esteem and confidence. You should have more faith in yourself.

Don't be too pessimistic. While it's good to be aware of the negative possibilities, but don't let those get to you. Look at the positive things in life.

Have more faith in yourself and others will believe in you more too. Even if you happen to make a mistake or perhaps not succeed in a way that you'd like, remember that we're all human and we all make mistakes. As long as it's a mistake that's not too grave and it was unintentional then it's fine. You have to move on from mistakes/errors.

Your fear of not succeeding or failing often will lead you to feel conflicted and be stuck. If you don't take a step forward, then how will things change?

#2

Your greatest enemy is your circle of friends. Your friends likely are toxic - at least the majority of them. The majority of them don't wish you well, want to hurt you, or are jealous of you or don't care about you. You might have a lot of "friends" or know a lot of people but the people that you can actually count on are little to none.

You might not be the best at reading people or knowing their true intentions. You might be too kind or too giving or forgiving. You often get taken advantage of.

You also may be the sort that will only like to associate with people who say only good things about your praise you in person. These people probably aren't your real friends. You should know that people who have your best interests will probably not keep feeding you false compliments. They will honestly give you true feedback and sometimes it may be hard to hear/accept.

#3

Your greatest enemy is your family. You likely come from a family where there's little support or there's just a lot of toxicity. Your family or some members of your family likely have hurt you. This could be verbal/physical abuse. It might even be sexual assault or like mental torment. There could be a lot of passive aggressive behaviour coming from your family.

Another situation could be that you are the least favored in your family, so often your family members will side with your other siblings/relatives and won't believe what you say. You might often get hand-me-downs or barely any gifts from family or attention.

Another situation could be that your sibling/relative is extremely toxic. They might put in you situations where your parents or other people will look at you in a bad light. They might create situations to actually hurt you or set you back. They might somehow ruin your career/dreams. They may also hurt you in other ways like spread rumors or hit you or sexually abuse you etc. Somehow, this sibling/relative will be very terrible to you. The abuse may also be very subtle but it's definitely there.

#4

Your greatest obstacle is related to romantic love. For some reason you never seem to get into healthy, loving relationships. You might even self-sabotage your chances like you cheat on your partner even though you love them. You might also encounter some partner who seems perfect but later turns out to be a scam artist and wants your money. Or maybe you meet a serial player and they actually are married already. Or you marry someone and they have a secret dark life where they are into illegal activities like possibly involved in some activities with minors.

Your s/o may make you somehow get into a lot of debt. Maybe you two open up joint line of credits and then they withdraw all the money. Perhaps you two invest in something and then it turns out poorly.

Your s/o could also get you into trouble with the authority. Perhaps you end up helping them steal from your employer and then you end up in jail for them. Maybe they somehow get you into drugs and then you end up dealing drugs and then get caught and go to jail. You might run a ponzi scheme with them and get caught. Perhaps they use your identity to scam others and you get caught.

Somehow your love life is a mess in many ways. You often will get into weird situationships or maybe you will be the third wheel. There's often a third party situation. You will feel very frustrated with romantic love and might even stay single for a long time. You may even choose not to date again for the rest of your life.

You will need to recognize whether the problem lies with you or whether it's the other person. Sometimes you are the problem. Sometimes the other person is. It depends.

#5

Your greatest obstacle is your health. You likely suffer from some chronic illnesses. Perhaps you have a lot of allergies and are very limited in your food choices. Maybe you were diagnosed with an incurable disease. Maybe you are a survivor of some cancer. Perhaps you often catch colds and have a weak immune system.

The irony is sometimes you'll want to exercise more but then you end up hurting yourself. Perhaps you want to improve your health through some diet but then you end up realizing that that diet isn't suited for you and get sick. Be careful of following "fad" diets or "trendy" nutrition tips - you're likely going to get sick because of them. You should seek a medical professional for advice about health and not self-medicate.

You're likely to also try alternative medicine like herbs, supplements, etc. Again please consult a proper alternative medicine professional. You may sometimes have bad luck and get really terrible doctors who prescribe you the wrong meds and mess you over or give you the wrong diagnosis, so remember to find someone who is reliable.

You also may perhaps suffer from some mental health/issues related to learning/development etc. You might perhaps have ADHD or OCD. You might have schizophrenia or be bipolar. It's important to again seek the proper medical professionals to help.

#6

Your greatest obstacle is related to your career/wealth. You likely have issues keeping your job or moving up the corporate ladder or getting promotions. If you have your own business, you're likely to be out of business and sometimes it might not be due to you (i.e. pandemic came along and wiped away tons of businesses and you happened to open shop right at the start of the pandemic and in a business that was heavily affected by the pandemic).

You're likely to change jobs often. You might have to change careers often too. Somehow it's very difficult for you to be successful in your career.

You also might often encounter terrible bosses/supervisors/managers. They can make your life very miserable. Some might be verbally abusive. Some might underpay you and expect you to work long hours. Some might be very controlling so they micromanage you. Some may be racist and just target you.

Somehow you have quite a bit of unluckiness with the career or even wealth. You're likely not able to save money or invest. If you invest, you're likely to lose all your money and get into heavy debt. I wouldn't be surprised if you have declared bankruptcy once or have needed to go through with a consumer proposal.

You're also likely to get fired and it might not be your problem. You might just be caught up in massive layoffs or you change a job and then shortly the corporation becomes bankrupt.

You might also get scammed financially. Perhaps you help someone and then they steal your purse. You might click on some link and then lose thousands of dollars. Perhaps you lend your friend some money and they run off. You may rent a unit and then pay the rent and then realize that you paid a scammer who didn't even own the unit.

Name: Barrel Bomb

Debut: Mario Kart Tour

I gotta be honest, all this time I thought this thing was just called Obstacle. That was much funnier to me. Is it ok if I start this post over and you all pretend its official name is Obstacle? Thank you so much.

Name: Obstacle

Debut: Mario Kart Tour

Yep. That sure is an Obstacle if I've ever seen one! They really named this thing Obstacle. I can't say I disagree! It has a bright red Bowser face, and best of all, its metal rims have spikes like the spiked bands Bowser wears. This barrel isn't just designed that way, it's wearing accessories! It's wearing spiked bands, and technically, it has a face, so I think Obstacle counts as a member of the Koopa Troop. It hangs out with them, and one day, hopes to maybe even drive a kart of its own...!

Obstacle is like the evil version of the DK Barrel. Donkey Kong? Now that guy is my funny friend. If one of HIS barrels is in the way, it's probably not too intrusive, and might even have goodies inside! It might also have him inside! Remember the recent confirmation that Kongs are not apes? That makes it more likely that wooden barrels are their eggs, and they are full of albumin. Be careful breaking them... you might be in for a Wet Surprise! Don't act like it's weird, Yoshi's whole brand is eggs and we let that happen!

Don't even think about crashing into Obstacle. You'll be obstructed if you do! Maybe you'd think "This obstacle is a bad guy and I should kill it by running it over with my car" (and you would have a point because this barrel is clearly the moral scum of the earth, quite frankly), but impact with Obstacle will cause you to Explode. It will also explode if it from afar with something such as a shell, which is utilized in some challenges to defeat large groups of Goombas. You might think Obstacle was just trying to hang out with the Goombas, but remember what an utterly reprehensible villain Obstacle is. I bet it stationed itself there on purpose, so that it could sacrifice itself to destroy its supposed friends. Irredeemable!

My favorite thing about Obstacle is that they are Bowser-branded at all, here in this game where Bowser and his cronies are playable. A Bowser face to communicate "Bad! Stay away!" when you could easily be playing as Bowser. It makes sense from a game design standpoint, but it's still silly! Obstacle will make no exception for its boss. Maybe the Koopa Kingdom is the most notable exporter of obstacles in the Mushroom World, and Bowser provides the Obstacles like BaNaNa Boy provides the bananas! He should have given them a better name, though. "Obstacle"? That's so vague!

Sponsored Horse Jump

Hi ! I'm so glad to post my first mod ever for the Sims 4! I've been learning 3D Modelling for a year now and I've always wanted to make my own CC. 😄

You held on. You held on even when it seemed the odds were stacked against you and everywhere you turned felt like an obstacle. You held on even when it felt like the grasp you had on life was slipping away and the weight of the world and your worries piled upon your shoulders. You held on because even when you couldn't see a step before you, you never stopped putting one foot in front of the other and clinging to your faith in God. Some people may never know the depths you had to dig yourself out of or the mental torment that once seemed to tear you apart from the inside out - but you know. You endured and held on. You kept going and you will continue to do so. No matter what tomorrow holds, let your yesterdays serve as a poignant reminder that you can and will not only overcome but also rise above.

Pixel dailies: Obstacle

(via Obstacle)

[wisdomfish]

Bringing evil to a standstill...

The only way to overcome evil is to let it run itself to a standstill because it does not find the resistance it is looking for. Resistance merely creates further evil and adds fuel to the Hames. But when evil meets no opposition and encounters no obstacle but only patient endurance, its sting is drawn, and at last it meets an opponent which is more than its match. Of course, this can only happen when the last ounce of resistance is abandoned, and the renunciation of revenge is complete. Then evil cannot find its mark, it can breed no further evil, and is left barren. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Pixel Dailies #2611 - Obstacle

Well that certainly looks to be an obstacle…

Prompt - Obstacle

@jegulus-microfic December 6 Word count 98

“You’re in my way, Potter.” Regulus drawled in his best bored aristocratic voice. 

“Am I?” James said, confused. The entire rest of the corridor was empty. 

“You are literally an obstacle in my way.” Regulus glowered. 

“Oh, ok.” James nodded, reaching out, he picked Regulus up as though he weighed nothing, spun around and put him down. 

“There, obstacle avoided,” James smirked, winking at Regulus before he returned to scraping Bubotuber puss off the wall, ignoring Regulus’s exasperated spluttering.

Regulus turned and walked away, trying to forget how nice it had felt crushed up against Potter’s rippling ab’s.
