I used to think that awakening was knowing something, but I am now minded to see it as being something. Yes, it's a reorientation from certainty to uncertainty. But the quest for knowledge is never-ending and insatiable. Surely being awake has to be something else? I suggest it's "owning your vibe"; something within, and a sovereign choice. Be the light... that's it.
It is so bizarre to be with people that do not want to know the truth, and a family that rejects your vibe. I don't play pretend anymore and i try to only speak truth.
