Thank you for your kindness.

Next time, perhaps you may be less inclined to your own entitlements while berating warmly? I do not expect a soft pillow blow. Perhaps my eloquence is the only form of entertainment during a 3am jaunt of painful exploration, and perhaps I really just need something to understand, therefore I delved deeper than I usually let myself.

I agree with your direction, and your insight is valuable, so you are appreciated.

I never claimed to be exceptional, nor do I hold my existence higher than the existence of others. One of my larger issues is battling my own self-worth, so of course overcompensation is to be expected, but not accepted. How you gathered extreme narcissism from the adjectives provided, is beyond the information from my heart.

Perhaps you may be fighting a battle of maintaining an entertaining passion in your own life.

Compassion can be cruel, and I accept that challenge. To assume, however, only creates invalid opinion based on sensory objectification and internal projection.

Focusing on the Buddhist principles of inner-peace is certainly a challenge, as billions have found upon their deathbeds and high in the arms of nature;
but with love and gentle guidance, I’m sure it shall be manifested at some point in my young lifetime. I have lived several lifetimes, already, and I’m hardly two decades into this one.
This does not give me entitlement. It brings me peace knowing that the wisdom accrued may help others, for we have an exceptionally difficult road ahead, still. Our species is once again having it’s ass lit on fire by the organic, for the damaging effects we create. This has been occurring since the dawn of civilization. This time, they may be irreversible for our species.
We deserve that.. for playing God will only work against us.

I feel I am on the right Path to these inner principles, and the acquisition will never be complete. Always a journey, until the next.
We all are on our own journeys, whether they’re realized or consciously manifested.

“yes, these emotions and thoughts are difficult, painful, but as I spend more time nurturing, caring for myself, the pain subsides, loosens, breaks apart and my body and mind heal from the past.”

Thank you.
