Coincidentally, because my heart is too big-Never had a problem not being able to love. 😂 I just have a bit of a problem loving everyone and everything more than MYSELF. What inevitably happens is that I forget to love myself or I stumble into these dark self-loathing spirals where I send all my love out that can’t be unconditional with mySelf. Kinda fucked up right?

Being Enlightened is Lonely but Being Enchanted by Myth is FoolishAwareness is a state that runs on a continuum; enlightenment is at the top, and enchantment is at the bottom. Sadly, there are a lot more people at the bottom than at the top. So they say being enlightened is lonely, whereas being enchanted by myth is foolish. Spirituality can be confusing because it is a universal term with a broad range of meanings and uses.

Enlightenment and enchantment couldn't be further apart. The arena of spirituality is famous for confusing the meaning of these terms. Some believe this is a blatant attempt to counterfeit or plagiarize. Regardless of the motives, it is helpful to step back and review the real meaning and usage of the terms.
