Thumotic spirituality is for those who naturally prefer-
Avenging rather than forgiving wrongs done to themselves and their family and friends
Laughing at their challenges rather than crying to be rescued
Eating, drinking, and being merry rather than fasting, abstaining, and being sullen
Fulfilling rather than denying themselves
Sex to celibacy
Contributing more to their community than they take.
Helping those temporarily unable to help themselves rather than giving alms to the habitually poor
Healing the sick and injured who can regain their self-reliance and value to others rather than artificially prolonging those who cannot
Honoring the aged rather than marginalizing them
Dying with dignity rather than prolonging a meaningless life
