Paradox #1
The contradiction or inconsistency could be in viewing a leader's struggle to meet the demands and needs of their people. On one hand, it highlights the leader's responsibility to provide for and care for his followers. On the other hand, it shows the overwhelming burden and stress that can come with leadership, raising questions about whether it's fair to expect one person to fulfill all needs. This tension between responsibility and personal burden could be seen as a moral conflict.
