The reason why enlightenment is the damnedest thing...

[iboughtleosbooklist]

...there's nobody to tell about it ?

Ta-da!

And it’s not even something that happens that brings something new. There never were actual stakes.

Ta-da ?

Maybe the meaning is in the story itself. Have you ever dreamed that you could fly, or that you were running from a monster that would inevitably catch you in its claws? Clearly the dream has value, beyond timeless, unchanging, relentlessly formless reality. Otherwise, why would Consciousness dream? The best of both worlds is to be awake, within the dream. Enjoy it for what it is, but don't take it too seriously

The Ta-Da gave me a giggle. 

It seems that nobody actually wakes up, huh. Haha.
I remember once someone told me...
All I can do is play now, cause all life does is play.

I can relate to that.

It's a beautiful story made of love. It's also incredibly sad. It's infinitely meaningful, and infinitely meaningless, but overall it's good. We have no choice but to see it as good, we are stuck here, but overall it is good, as God can forget and infinitely distract itself with beautifully crafted loving stories of others. If it couldn't do that, then yikes, but it can so ❤️

Yet but as you’ll know it’s not that someone goes “yes that was surely enlightenment, I have thus attained it.” In any way that isn’t silly, anyway.
