So if a person puts a gun to your head the first time they meet you, chances are that person probably is dangerous. Or maybe that might be your thing. It might be the most thrilling and exciting thing you ever done with a person, and they instantly get disconnection from you. Who knows? But I'm very weary to judge people the first time I meet them because sometimes I could be wrong

Okay. Dewuan I've tried three times to leave a response, so this is my response. Yes. I think there's a lot that people can learn from snakes or people who are labeled as snakes, and just to maintain an awareness and to pay attention to what the lessons learned in that are and even what they can learn learn from that person. Because a snake is labeled figuratively. A snake is a person who is cunning and wise and strategic is what can another person learn from those characteristics?

And again, I know a lot of you are probably listening to this like, wow, you're an a******. Why would you do that? Yada yada, yada. Well, there's an intent behind it. Actually, a lot of athletes from what I've read, have done this to their own teammates. Not really related, but somewhat related to my story

JL, thank you for taking the time not only to listen to the swell, but to also offer an audio response. Sorry it took you so many times. I know how that can be. Takes me probably many more times to reply as well as make original posts. You know, it's unfortunate, I was thinking about this as I was trickortreating with the kids. Why do snakes get the bad rap?

Snakes in the wild move different, quite literally, than most apex predators, and their ability not only to strike with lightning speed, but also to coil around their victims makes them extremely intimidating. So it would make sense that we would have biblical depictions of them as well as gods in their honor. The snake is a very exotic being. So, speaking of snakes, I'm currently watching a show. I don't want to tell you yet
Never trust a snake by two once. Never. Hey, but you made some great examples in this post. I guess you should be patient, right? You should always be. Maybe you should get to try to understand where the person is coming from. There's obviously some limits, right? Like you mentioned in your post, there are some limits. But yeah, with you and with you stealing that rapper's lyrics, I thought it was funny

And there tends to be a negative association with those qualities when in turn, you can be a positive and good intent person, and you can borrow or not borrow or observe some of those qualities and say, how can I use those same qualities but use it for good? And I believe it's just that way because of our society being crafted around Christianity and this whole thought process that this serpent or snake was cunning enough to you can hear about candy. That was candy

What's up, man? Thank you for taking the time not only to listen to the Swell, but to also offer an audio response. And that's funny you mentioned it like that because I can totally see at the time when I had, you know, stole J hood's reps that if I would have lied about the DBZ, it would have been like, okay, we can't talk to this dude anymore. But that's cool that you found it. It's funny at the time

I remember a phrase a long time ago, someone older used to say to me, at least a dog, when a dog does wrong, at least it'll look away. It'll look down or give you puppy eyes or whatever because you know it was wrong. A snake will look you right in the face before it bites you, period. That's just a snake. They're just like that. Snakes play their position in life in the kingdom. They are not fake

I just think the snake is a lot more elusive in its efforts and it's a lot smaller in stature. But what it lacks in size, it makes up for sometimes in its venom as well as its strike of its fangs. But it is to me, pretty much the same as a lion. But it's interesting in how we equate someone who's like a lion is like a king, but someone who is a snake. We equate that to someone who is evil
