Lessons from Black Panther Movie: (A) Challenges of a good king

in zappl •  7 years ago  (edited)

These "deep" words were told as wise sayings in the movie, and seemed to also provoke thoughts in the viewers' minds.

*“You are a good man with a good heart. And it is hard for a good man to be king”.*

But do you think so and why? 🤔...

Good post

Cheers to that banglah, have you seen the movie? 🙂 or if you have ideas on throwing more explanations on the saying

The problem persons have is mentality...
A good man can definitely be a king it all depends on how good the good man is, a good man could hardly be a king also depending on his intentions and the people he intends to rule...

Hmm.. interesting! So his intentions and that of his people are also a force that determines.. 👍

nice post

I am glad bro. Thanks for the acknowledgement.
So what do you think about those sayings? 🙂

Just like @aerick said.. A good man can be king, correct but most times, you can't always be good to everyone as a king, there are times when being ruthless is the best option.. So, in most cases, Good people are kept as advicers.. People with good hearts..

I strongly agree with you.. Good men should be kept as advicers cause their good hearts suffers the most.

haha.. I get the gist! Although we get concerned about,, what happens if they are just mere advisers and the bad men-kings despise their advice 😥. Like Okoye, one may have to see himself/herself facing a battle that was caused by wrong counsel.. Quite frustrating you know..

Exactly my point.. Because whennit comes to leadership, there's basically no YES or NO answer.. Everything hurts someone and good people will end up trying to go in all directions, which in most cases isn't good.. So, them as advisers is the best, the very best..

🤔 Okaay, but like the King of wakanda, T'challa still made a great king, but if I get your concern, like the 'proverb' said, it was indeed hard.. Hm true

Its a script tho.. But in reality, humans will always play on the fact that they know being good is your weakness.. And let me point out, that having a good heart is a weakness tho..

More like when the good heart in a man doesn't have some kind of "ruggedness" and willingness to do what they call "the better good". Cos sometimes, all goods cannot be done. I get it..
