Thus, he is like the dog; whether you pet him or scold him, he pants. Such is the example of people who reject our proofs. Narrate these narrations, that they may reflect.\\nIt is good to speak up, but it shouldn\\u2019t be the only time we react is to an external stimulus \\nThis is the difference between a thermometer and a thermostat \\nThermometer only reacts to the external environment\\nThermostat adjusts the settings of the environment\\nIf we are only going through life reacting to events then we are just being a thermometer \\nThis isn\\u2019t bad, but it shouldn\\u2019t be our end destination. Think of these moments as our call to action. \\nDavid vs. Goliath \\nExample of Moses\\nKills a man \\nAlmost kills a person again\\nComes back as a change agent \\nRather than just getting mad at the person who is saying these terrible things about the poor. Go and give to the poor. \\n[2:274] Those who give to charity night and day, secretly and publicly, receive their recompense from their Lord; they will have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.\\n[3:92] You cannot attain righteousness until you give to charity from the possessions you love. Whatever you give to charity, GOD is fully aware thereof.\\n[25:63] The worshipers of the Most Gracious are those who tread the earth gently, and when the ignorant speak to them, they only utter peace.\\n[84:19] You will move from stage to stage.\\nProverbs 9:10\\nThe fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.\\n[3:175] It is the devil\'s system to instill fear into his subjects.

Anyone who believes in his Lord will never fear any injustice, nor any affliction.\\nInjustice only exists if you don\\u2019t believe in a Hereafter\\n[4:79] Anything good that happens to you is from GOD, and anything bad that happens to you is from you. We have sent you as a messenger to the people, and GOD suffices as witness.\\nIt is easier to destroy than to build \\n************************************\\nWhy do people like spicy food?\\nBelieved to originally be because to mask the taste of food particularly meat that was not fresh. \\nFound that in climates the more hot the more the use of spices in their recipes \\nBut this for the most part no longer applies as we have plenty of access to fresh meat by means of refrigeration yet I don\\u2019t think there is a decline in human desire towards spicy food\\nWith the exception of the tree shrews, I don\\u2019t think there is any other mammal that has a fondness of spicy food\\nhttps://www.mnn.com/food/healthy-eating/stories/man-is-the-only-animal-to-find-pleasure-in-the-pain-of-peppers\\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/21/science/21peppers.html?pagewanted=2&_r=2&ref=science\\nhttps://www.thrillist.com/health/nation/what-makes-some-people-like-spicy-food-and-others-hate-it\\nAnd the only reason that tree shrews like particular chili peppers is because they have a mutation that lowers the sensitivity to the compound that gives spicy food that burning sensation in all other mammals. \\nD'
