The truth is that enlightenment is neither remote nor unattainable. It is closer than your skin and more immediate than your next breath. If we wonder why so few seem able to find that which can never be lost, we might recall the child who was looking in the light for a coin he dropped in the dark because, “the light is better over here.”
It can be lonely here on the side of truth. All the cool kids and fun activities and camaraderie are on the other side. Compared to them, we’re like a bunch of low-rent stick-in-the-butts with our lack of cool merch and our bliss-free spirituality.
Darn you truth. Darn you to heck.
