YES. Posted because I'm thankful, today, to the universe, for letting me 'know' what I know of it. ancianita Oct 2019 #3
Interesting. And rather profound. PatrickforO Oct 2019 #2

It's just a temporary thing; a brief experience of time and space that comes out of nothing and goes back to what it is. Some call what it is the Absolute: complete satisfaction without even the need to know one's self. Peace. Bliss? Being.

The human uniform is a monkey form of reflective awareness with extras that tells the idiot's tale with all due seriousness and great intent.

A wave arises on the Ocean of Being, reaches its peak and descends again into its source, never having been apart from it.

Her story is odd to me. I always chose to buck expectations.

My primary caregiver (dad) told me I was exceptional, so I'm sure that's what made me different.

This story is sad. However, it must be taken as a warning and not a description of young girls who turn into validation-seeking women.

I find no joy in this story except if people learn from it. https://www.npr.org/2019/09/26/764741938/death-and-the-great-beyond-how-we-grapple-with-the-idea-of-dying
