[spoiler]An unstable mind leads to unstable choices, acting rash without thinking leads to regrettable consequences.
Taking the time to calm your mind to come up with an answer is advised.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Sometimes you must hurt in order to know.
Fall in order to grow.
Lose in order to gain because life's greatest lesson is learned through pain...
It's so easy to judge, so hard to understand.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]How does this apply through life...
Grief: When sadness is bestowed to you go through 5 stages of grief, everybody goes through them.
But it's about accepting.
It can apply to any problem, someone pisses you off..
You act with emotion of anger to retaliate back creating a sense of denial and deflection.
Some have anxiety so words hurts them so they become depressed.
Some are weak so they seek others for help immediately, but in time something as trivial it will just become and always be a distant memory.
This also applies to disappointments such as working hard for something and not achieving what you wanted.[/spoiler]
The Jedi Code teaches you how to be a soulless robot, that duty and selfishness is the answer.
However completely neglecting the DarkSide is what what lead to their destruction.
How do you expect to face something if you don't know it.

The jedi were destroyed by being in denial.

I always wanted to be a vampire

Sounds like you're describing aspergers.
-
Thanks I forgot

There is no cringe, there are memes.

The main character of my fanfiction is more grey than light, as he was one a sith and still used his emotions with the force.
-
*uses the force to pour bowl of cereal
-
I am a grey jedi
-
I like this one better.

They remove emotion because it clouds judgment. That's why Anakin's love with Padme was against the rules; see what love did to him? By detaching themselves from emotion, the Jedi can be purely objective in their pursuit of knowledge and attempts to keep the universe on the path to Light. Basically, kill the heart so the mind can work freely.

And if it's your first night at Jedi Club...
-
Are these just from KOTOR?
-
I've always aligned more with the Dark Side, drowning myself in my emotions and storing my fury inside. *sigh* I'd give just about anything to have access to the Force.
-
Both the jedi and sith are both technically wrong. Both are extremist groups that follow strict rules. The jedi want you to be an emotionless machine of justice, while the sith want you to be a self-absorbed maniac.
-
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me.
-
The prequels aren't cannon in my eyes, you made these up
-
Cool. I don't believe that at all though. I think the Jedi code is wrong.
-
Jedis are boring. Sith know how to party.
-
Selfishness?
-
That's why they have to kidnap and indoctrinate children with this crap.
-
Interesting.
-
Grey Jedi. Bound by morals, not by law.
-
So staying single is key
