GRABBERS SOUL

There are people who are called “grabbers”.

Grabbers possess an increased susceptibility of the nervous system and a rapid reaction. The grabbers have increased skin sensitivity, perhaps, is due to the fact that many nerve endings come to the surface of the skin.

Grabber’s role, three feelings are connected: greed (avarice), distrust (suspicion) and anxiety (concern, frustration).

GREED

The feeling of greed, avarice, lust, associated with the grabber’s role, generates the desire to possess the object of lust. Greed and avarice are constantly encouraging grabber to use his chance, not to miss the prey, to have time to grab, to get ahead of others, to jerk to himself in time. That is why grabbers are called grabbers and graspers. They have a very developed “grasping reflex”.

The grabber is a lover of freebie and easy profit. Selfish greed, the desire to grab on the cheap generates a rush demand, when they throw out a scarce commodity. When to the hungry throw “or the fight-dog” the object of their lust, they, fuelled with greed, arrange among themselves selfish bickering.

Greed is the source of envy: “another grabbed, he got it, but I did not!” – enviable. They say about grabbers: “Greedy folk have long arms”.

The grabber – he is not only a grasper and a grabber, but he is also still cormorant and cheapskate, he is a miser and a chuff. grabbers do not like the word “to buy” very much, because “to buy” means “to give money”. They prefer the word “to obtain”, that is, “to make a raise”, “to take”, “to find”, “to get a gift”, “to steal”, and only in the most extreme case, after bargaining, “to buy”.

If the grabber buys something, then only on the cheap. He will not pay an extra kopeck. Before buying something, the grabber will always find the lowest price. He always knows what, where and how much. This can be seen in Judas. This is what the Gospel of John says:

Mariia, taking a pound of backgammon pure precious world, has spread Jesu’s legs and wiped His legs with her hair; and the house filled with the fragrance of the world.

Then one of His disciples, Judas Simonov Iscariot,

who wanted to betray him, said:

Why not sell this chrism for three hundred denarius…

…because there was a thief

He had a cash drawer with him and wore that they lowered there.

(John 12: 3—6)

Judas who as a result has sold Jesus for 30 silver coins was a treasurer in the company of Jesus and his apostles: “he had a cash drawer with him and wore that they lowered there’. The thirst for money is a very selfish tendency of nature.

The grabber – thief. He is an evident thief or a thief in the depths of his soul. The grabber all “self” clings to his hands. If giddy-person always loses everything, then grabber, on the contrary, as if gathers by itself.

The grabber – hoarder. He drags to the house everything that will get, everything that “badly lies”. His house is filled with unused junk. When moving to another house the grabber gets boxes with junk. There is only one way to make grabber get rid of junk – to persuade to sell. But he won’t sell cheap.

An example of a selfish woman – a Box from Gogol’s “Dead Souls”, which thought, how not to undersell, she wanted to sell more expensive “dead souls”. Another example of a selfish character – a squirrel from the cartoon “Ice Age”.

The notion of property – the notion of the “eternal and integral” right of a person to private property – has grown from a selfish greed: “Mine! I will not give it!” grabbers are ardent owners, zealous apologists of a private property.

The grabber considers the wife (or husband) own property too. The grabber has always a marriage of convenience. grabbers like to conclude the marriage contract. For them, marriage is a deal “you – me, I – you”. When divorcing the selfish person will certainly try to bargain more junk.

Grabbers are very jealous. Jealousy – generation of greed too. Mutual jealousy is called the competition. Competition arises when one is jealous of others as the object of lust. Competing with others, the jealous person strives to get ahead of everyone, before reaching the desired goal. The competitor is encouraged with a feeling of greed and lust.

No need to assume that greed, envy, greed are bad feelings. For example, A.S. Pushkin believed that “Envy is a competition sister, consequently from a good kind”. The poet presumable has written this phrase in 1831. (First published by P. V. Annenkov in the Collected Poems, 1855, vol. I, p. 288.)

Grabbers are called “stuffy” people. They say about them: “from greed the toad strangles”.

Grabbers eat a little, economically, if at their own expense, but at other expense eat greedily, until dumping. Their motto is: “What I do not eat – then I will bite’

Grabbers can be good speculators and second-hand dealers. These are bright and prudent businessmen who measure everything on money and sensitively react to change of market condition. Their god is – the Golden Taurus. They are corrupt and unprincipled. For the sake of profit, grabbers will easily break laws and moral standards.

Grabbers are self-serving people. Self-interest – this is a vested interest. The grabber is looking for benefits in everything. He lives according to the saying: “The fish seeks, where is deeper, the man – where is the best”. He works only if he sees a direct personal benefit for himself. Whatever he does, wherever he serves, the grabber always works only for himself. For the sake of the idea, for the sake of society, the grabber won’t work. On grabber “where you sit down – there you go down”. It is better for him to use piecework payment for labour. At the time rate, the grabber will work with “the left hand”: and why should he work at all if they pay for the time spent at work?

The most favourite position of grabbers in an army is a position of the supplier, quartermaster. At all times, in all countries, all peoples had quartermasters who stole supplies and rations. Not for nothing to say: “To whom – war, and to whom – mother dear”. Therefore, the order in the army always began to lead from the fact that the thieves-quartermasters were shot. Generalissimo Suvorov not for nothing said that any quartermaster, who served for two years in one place, can be hung without trial and investigation.

MISTRUST

Another feeling associated with the role of the grabber is a feeling of distrust, suspicion, doubt, scepticism.

The grabber is extremely distrustful. Like Thomas unbeliever, he will not believe until he feels it.

Thomas… told them:

if I see wounds on His arms from nails,

and do not put my finger in wounds from nails,

and do not put my hand in His ribs I will not believe.

(John 20:24,25)

Mistrust creates a way to check everything. The grabber never asks the road once. At first, he will ask the road from one passerby, and then will begin to ask the same about the other.

Mistrust and suspicion generates grabbers to have such feature of the character, as caution, circumspection, the desire to “keep their head down”.

Greed together with distrustfulness makes grabbers to be thrifty. Especially they like to stock up with gratuitous or cheap things. They have long-term stocks, and at the real grabbers – and multiten-year stocks.

Grabbers” suspicion is shown in their aspiration everywhere and in everything to see someone’s intrigues. They sow the relations of general mistrust and suspiciousness, strive to arrange “witch-hunt”.

The suspicion and distrust of the grabbers can be outweighed only by their greed. The feeling of distrust and suspicion is always mixed up with a feeling of greed and jealousy; both these feelings are associated with grabber’s role. The grabbers conflict of distrustfulness and greed is a source of grasping habit.

If the grabbers give money, then only for a credit, at interest, only with benefit, only for a loan or other guarantees. But on the pledge of the word they do not give for a loan. They “do not beg for snow in the winter”.

It is better not to lend money to grabber – he will do everything not to back the money. You can completely lose contact with the selfish buddy if you give him a small amount of money for a loan – he will stop meet with you under any pretexts, just not to back money.

As grabbers are tended to the theft, they the first notice other thieves – “a fisherman sees a fisherman afar”. They suspect all in theft and laceration aspirations, because they are familiar.

The role of the suspicious grabber is a role of a watchdog who watches for a junk. And often this is the role of “dog in the manger” – it does not eat and does not give to others.

The suspiciousness of grabbers makes them vigilant. It is almost impossible to slip past the self-guard, caretaker or auditor. But he can be bribed. It will not be cheap, but possible. grabber’s motto: “Serving the Fatherland, do not forget yourself!”

The feeling of mistrust is also called a feeling of scepticism, a feeling of doubt. grabbers this is people who are sceptical, doubtful at all, taking nothing for granted. grabbers are people of a critical mind, they are pragmatists and realists.

The fashionable phrase that “real people sit on unfaithfulness” (i.e. doubt everything, do not trust to nothing and to nobody, check everything and recheck) is one more illustration to feature of the character of the grabber-realist. The feeling of mistrust is called the feeling of the real.

The developed feeling of mistrust and suspiciousness of grabbers generates a tendency to hide and conceal money and valuable things. “It is a quiet Ukrainian night, but you have to hide fat!” – this is about grabber. It happens that grabber on a drunk “will break for treason” – he will hide money, but, when become sober, he can not find them.

Realism, distrustfulness, thrift, business grasp this is what called the pragmatism. The pragmatism – is a selfish feature. Therefore, the role of the grabber can also be called the role of the Pragmatist.

ANXIETY

Except greed and distrustfulness, in a selfish corner, in a selfish nook of soul, there still lives the feeling of an anxiety, concern, frustration.

The feeling of anxiety (concern, frustration) in a strong manifestation is called a state of “nervous platoon”, nervous excitement, annoyance. When a person does not want to go into such an emotional state, he says: “Do not nervous, do not irritate me!”

The person who, having looked at the watch, has understood that he has overslept that he is late usually passes into a condition of nervous excitement. He jumps sharply and begins to gather feverishly quickly. The “alarm” command, which sounds in the army, in the fire departments, at the frontier post, just calls to this nervous-feverish state. At the same time the siren howls, the flasher blinks. This is done specifically to increase the feeling of an anxiety, to increase nervous excitement.

The condition of nervous excitement a person who is forced to do several special, urgent things at the same time usually have. In such emotional state the squirrel from the cartoon “Ice Age” feverishly was gathering scattered nuts. Such a state of mind happens to the mother, when she is “all on her nerves”, urges her child: “Come on! Come on! Move faster! A little time!”, to take him to the kindergarten.

Feeling of an anxiety, concern, frustration sometimes call a stress. Stress is constantly exposed to residents of large cities with a high rate of life. When a provincial comes to a large or metropolitan city, it seems to him that everyone around him “runs like a fever”.

Long stay on a nervous platoon – leads to nervous breakdowns, hysterics, psychoses. When a person has broke, being on a nervous platoon, they say: “Why are you crazy about? What, do nerves play pranks?”
