Does powerful means dominating the weak?

I'm going to quote from Spiderman here (as lame as that is) lol.  "With great power comes great resposibility."\n\nI would think that a person, nation, corporation, etc. that was truely powerful would have the resposiblity to help or protect the weak. Even better would be to teach the weak to become strong. The powerful have the ability to either use it to dominate or for more noble purposes.

The only one to answer this quesiton is yourself.  The nature 'powerful' and 'weak' people are all matters of perspective.  Most people are not inherrently either.  Individuals themselves decide, based upon reputation, appearence, and behavior, who is powerful, and who is not.  Realize that things like reputation, and appearence, and even behavior, all are things completely subjective to circumstance.  People that do not allow circumstances to influence them are called masters, which is a title that is reachable every second of the day, by anyone.  Contrary to popular belief, you can choose to be a master in an instant, and do not need to spend years in tibet praying.  Getting back to your 'powerful' women, you could be more powerful than them simply by a few changes in circumstance, the most of which, is your own perception of them.  You can change your perception of someone at will.  Realize this;  There is nothing without an opposite.  No matter what these two powerful women do that seem infallible or powerful, just realize that there is an opposite way to view them.  If they have things such as nice cars or expensive clothes that make them look powerful, also realize that it is weak to depend upon these kinds of things for a sense of self-worth.  \n\nRemember this; THE TRUE ANSWERS ALWAYS LIE WITHIN.  If your women seem too 'powerful' for you, that also means  you believe yourself to be too weak for them, which is a choice.  Do not blame them for the way the behave, and take responsibility for the way you respond.  The difference between power and weakness is choice.  Choose to be powerful, and let nothing deter.\n\nThe answers to all of your questions lie in your own head, and you must find them.  A great piece of advice that I read in a book is this; Trust your feelings.  They are always correct, but you must be able to know the difference between your honest gut feeling, and your emotions.  Emotions are debris on the road to your true feelings.  The reason you feel uncomfortable is because of the tricks that emotions play with your mind.  At your base, your feelings are not what is telling you that you are a ball being tossed between to powerful ladies.  That is completely unnatural, and I assure you, this is not your own essence, which is what your true feelings always reflect.  Your true feelings know that the situation is just not right, while your emotions are telling you different.  This is the confusion that you are dealing with.  At our base, we all have great power, and our base is never afraid of other people with power.  Your base, in fact, welcomes powerful people, because there are valuable things you can gain from them, probably the most of which is simply the presence of true self-confidence.  Self-confidence exudes itself, and the longer in which you can sustain it, the easier it will be to keep.  \n\nSo what you should do is do some relaxing, and distance yourself from these 'powerful' women long enough to gain some perspective.  You must clean yourself of the poison that clouds your true power.  You must try to realize yourself, because it is obvious that at the present point, you do not.  We all have moments of self-realization, but most of us lose them in an instant.  The trick is to recognize these moments for what they are.  There are times when we feel the moment is perfect.  These moments can be set off by anything.  Wearing the right clothes, saying the right thing, eating the right food, doing the right favor, anything can be a moment of self-realization, but most people view them simply as 'a good day', when it is a moment of self-realization.  Do not underappreciate yourself, and overappreciate the circumstance.  When you feel great, you are in a moment of self-realization, every time.  Know this, and accept this, and your life will be filled with joy, and so will the lives of those around you.  You must gradually sustain these moments longer and

My mother told me that as long as you have any emotions for a person including anger or hate when ever you see them or think of them, then they have control over you. That did the trick for me - when you can think of the person - or see them - or hear their name and not have any emotions at then you have won!!!

It all depends on how strong YOUR will is...

Nope, it doesn't make you weak it makes you strong. Life sucks sometimes but don't take the coward's way out. Live with the hand you've been dealt. Other people will be effected by a selfish decision like suicide.

PWNED is leet speak for owned. Owning someone is mastering over someone. Consider a master slave relationship. Someone/Something had full control over another: Pwnage

It sounds like you answered your own question, but I would add that in the act of "empowering," there is inherently an unequal power relationship that exists. That is, the person or institution or whatever it is doing the empowerment or giving empowerment assumes that that person has more power and the person receiving it has less. This is something that is important for those on the "giving" end to recognize for its implications in how you think about the work that you do with less empowered groups or individuals, such as in analyzing where that power differential is rooted. Is it due to race, class, gender, etc?

Certainly. When inequality is perceived, some people are moved to change the balance.  Some use violent means to further their goals.

If you're asking are we the most influential? the answer is yes, but military-wise, no, we aren't the most powerful country, China is, it just so happens that we're the ones that fight in lots of wars and win so it makes us look powerful.

i see it to mean, never in the past has power lay at rest. it has always been used by those who will profit from the influence of the whole. worse, consistantly, we play along blissfully.

Overpowering in effect or strength: overwhelming joy; an overwhelming majority.
