Some doodle requests from insta
Once a little boy went to school. One morning The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. He liked to make all kinds; Lions and tigers, Chickens and cows, Trains and boats; And he took out his box of crayons And began to draw.
But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make flowers.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make beautiful ones With his pink and orange and blue crayons. But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And it was red, with a green stem. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”
The little boy looked at his teacher’s flower Then he looked at his own flower. He liked his flower better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just turned his paper over, And made a flower like the teacher’s. It was red, with a green stem.
On another day The teacher said: “Today we are going to make something with clay.” “Good!” thought the little boy; He liked clay. He could make all kinds of things with clay: Snakes and snowmen, Elephants and mice, Cars and trucks And he began to pull and pinch His ball of clay.
But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make a dish.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make dishes. And he began to make some That were all shapes and sizes.
But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And she showed everyone how to make One deep dish. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”
The little boy looked at the teacher’s dish; Then he looked at his own. He liked his better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just rolled his clay into a big ball again And made a dish like the teacher’s. It was a deep dish.
And pretty soon The little boy learned to wait, And to watch And to make things just like the teacher. And pretty soon He didn’t make things of his own anymore.
Then it happened That the little boy and his family Moved to another house, In another city, And the little boy Had to go to another school.
The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. And he waited for the teacher To tell what to do. But the teacher didn’t say anything. She just walked around the room.
When she came to the little boy She asked, “Don’t you want to make a picture?” “Yes,” said the little boy. “What are we going to make?” “I don’t know until you make it,” said the teacher. “How shall I make it?” asked the little boy. “Why, anyway you like,” said the teacher. “And any color?” asked the little boy. “Any color,” said the teacher. And he began to make a red flower with a green stem.

Based both on my personal experience and their own discourses.
Muslims cannot fathom nor comprehend that God is our Father. To them, He is a Creator that purposely keeps His distance from us. He is a MASTER and we're His SLAVES, SERVANTS. As much as they insist that God is merciful and loves us more than a mother, there's always an invisible wall between God and humans that prevents a closer bond to develop.
Original sin doesn't exist in their dogma, so there's no need for a savior.
Following this, they also have difficulty understanding why God would become human to suffer like us, (lesser beings) and die a horrible death out of love for us. Again, this is due to their perception of a distant God.
Another main obstacle they face, is understanding the Three Persons: that He is a One, Triune God. They're quick to shut it down as shirk (idolatry). This is a problem by default, since their own prophet Mohammed didn't understand the Trinity to begin with.
Since they believe the Bible got corrupted over time, they don't bother to read and study it, despite "believing" in it. Rather, they lean on the Quran's recollection of the Holy Scriptures, since they believe to have the definitive and unaltered Word of God.
When they say they know and love Jesus, they mean they know and love the Jesus misinterpreted in the Quran, since they don't read the Bible (except to pick and choose something to try to disprove poorly).
In my POV, for born Muslims this error can be understood as invincible ignorance. For converts, it's proof that they're looking for an authentic, black and white kind of religion with God. Most of them had bad experiences or poor catechism in the past, and want a religion "with no intermediaries." (i.e. priests and the saints; but mostly the latter).
The problem? They rely on their own understanding of the Quran and Hadith, plus whatever their local Iman tells them. (Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 17:5, Ps. 146:3). So much about no intermediaries.
All this, to say:
Since the grace of God works beyond the Church, Jesus, in His love and mercy, starts appearing in their dreams after many signs of His authority go ignored by them out of fear.
It's interesting to me how Muslims can "debate" with priests, pastors, missionaries, etc. for years; yet they only humble themselves once Jesus starts touching them in ways they can understand and accept --dreams.
Once they have this experience, then they're open to know Jesus, or they convert on the spot.
I might return to this later to expand on it. Nevertheless, please be kind and compassionate to those with an aggressive style of dawah (the equivalent of "evangelization"). More often than not, there's something behind the anger. With that said, stay firm and brave--don't let them insult our creed. Pray silently for them, and move on.
AAAAAAA OMG OMG OMG

Requests are still open ^^
I'm also working on the rules and general stuff for asks/request + introduction
I do really like how TOH deals with abuse with the framework they have. Even though Hunter doesn't think he's being abused, he has a few recited reasons why he doesn't leave: I can't survive on my own, nobody wants me because I'm broken, he's actually so nice to take care of me, he's the only person who understands me, Belos needs me there or something bad will happen, I don't want him to be hurt.
Since Hunter can't leave, there's a second level of thoughts he has through the show justifying his own abuse: I'm going to be replaced because I'm not good enough, I'm stupid, it's my fault that I got hit, the Titan chose me, I am hurting Belos by being broken, this is funny/ a joke, I have to do this for Belos otherwise Bad Thing.
In the realization part of Hunter's arc he starts reconsidering some of his thoughts. Steve brings up the time they were abandoned in a blizzard and Hunter dismisses it as being funny at first. He realizes it wasn't actually funny/ having your consent taken away is serious (just because it happened to Hunter by somebody he loved doesn't mean its ok). He later doubles down on the excuses until he has no way to justify it anymore and he realizes he's being abused. After the realization, Hunter refuses help and temporarily becomes homeless / has to deal with the reality of leaving his situation but finds out that a lot of the beliefs he had weren't real. Gus gives him his own lunch despite mistrusting him. Darius also contacts him and gives him a new mission to protect Luz. Hunter rebuilds his self worth slowly, and gets new hobbies and interests but occasionally relapses / still thinks he's broken and needs to hide / doesn't trust his friends. Then he has. a huge relapse because. obviously. Belos comes back and a lot of Hunter's fears get worse / he thinks he's crazy / he isolates himself and then loses his bodily autonomy and he has to combat his lack of self worth and his fears in order to even try to get out of it, knowing that it'll get him killed. And his support network is there for him, and it's . awful and devastating but they show the fuck up!!! And I. really like the ending of (this aspect) of his arc because like yeah you WILL find people who care about you no matter what your secrets/past is bc literally nobody cared when Hunter's secret got outed, they cared much more about his safety!! The ending is also sweet because Hunter is a pretty tragic character who ends up having their last bits of time on screen being silly with his adoptive family + support network like the reasons Hunter couldn't leave were real in some aspects but they were greatly exaggerated like. yeah he was homeless. being homeless isn't something to be ashamed of, its just a thing that happens to people. It is awful for him and traumatic and difficult to address but (most) people around him care about his safety regardless. Yea.
I mostly just obsess over fictional characters, reblog ship art, and post the pictures I take of cool animals. Enjoy.
