If he doesn't do that he will feel desperation and neediness, which ARE negative, but lets not confuse that with our passions. Lust and greed are actually the postive forms of motivation and when the darkworker is working towards satisfying himself he is showing love (self reverence) for himself, and when he succeeds and grows he feels unstoppably powerful.

The only way lust and greed are bad is by lacking the courage to pursue them.

And I finally get it.

This will be my last post on these forums. Adios amigos.
That is very well put, a good definition of DWs. I really believe life is all about control. Lack of control creates misery, wanting to control too much creates dissatisfaction.

Can a DW utilize spreading Joy to further the self?

Why does it have to be so polarized? I mean if a darkworker wants to help other people through charity and volunteer work is that such a poor choice for the DW?

I wonder what a good definition for LWs would be.
