I asked him, "What am I?"
He said I was a moth.
I asked him why I couldn't be a butterfly (I had always been a butterfly), but he said he didn't know.
I desperately wanted to make love to him, and I wanted to be made love to.
But he was a human and I was a moth.
A strange and frustrating thing.
So I hovered and fluttered around his neck as he led me up the stairs, and when he felt my winged kisses, he, too, was aroused.
He knew I was trespassing.
I knew he was forbidden.
I wasn't allowed to join him here, and not in this way, to be sure.
But these were not our rules.
They were not of our making.
Least of all, sane.
These rules belonged to the others.
The dim and unaware.
They did not apply to those whose sights transcended their limits.
They did not apply to creatures like he and I.
Our connection was strong.
Tenderly overwhelming.
We were destined to merge.
Our goal: become one.
And being that he was already a part of that world, while secretly being a part of mine, he cared enough to take me where I didn't belong.
He was privy to the path.
They'd never suspect a thing.
They'd only suspect me - the moth - a tender loving thing.
He looked like the others but to them, I was strange.
For being what I was.
For wanting what I want.
For going where they would not dare.
But he understood.
I only wanted to go higher.
I wanted to know more.
And I wanted him in his entirety.
He did not question my intentions.
He knew they were pure.
He did not question our differences because he knew we were the same.
He knew what I was, and what I was, was his.
He knew better than to hinder what he, too, desired for himself.
He conspired to make it happen.
And what mattered most is that he let me love him.
Let me touch him.
Let me follow this wild dream.
And I could not have been more grateful.
After holding back for what felt like an eternity,
with the whole universe pulsating within me,
I had nowhere to go but beyond all I'd ever known.
I desired him with a vengeance.
To devour every bit that I could.
I hungered for our union before reality woke us up.
Small as I was, my presence was known and felt.
My being was needed and craved.
And my touch turned him into mine as I sought to taste the places where he'd feel me the most deeply.
He, the human.
Me, the moth.
We, the illuminated.

And yes, this was an actual dream I had about a fellow at the time.

The only reason why you haven’t ‘gotten over’ your ‘past’ is because you’re using it in the present to justify why you’re not free.
It serves your perceived limitation(s) perfectly.
I can’t be / do / have THIS thing right now because of that thing that doesn’t actually exist.

Every being chooses when it enters and leaves this world.
As well as what it enters into.
It’s the human that can’t see beyond the illusion of form and time, thus believing something should or could have been different, and / or something actually went wrong.

The ‘narcissist’ is the inversion of truth.
They are a void.
But not a clean one.
The void is compensatory.
They don’t care about you.
But not in a clean way.
The lack of care is compensatory.
They are selfish.
But not in a clean way.
The selfishness is compensatory.
They use things and others.
But not in a clean way.
Their using is compensatory.
And…
when someone IS a clean void
when someone truly doesn’t care (about illusions / matter / appearances / the false, self-victimized you)
when someone IS ‘selfish’ (self-sourced / unwavering / in energetic integrity / true move-making, regardless of others)
when someone uses ALL things and people (to sharpen, to erect, to deepen and purify)
they appear narcissistic
to those still bound by themselves

To blame the ‘narcissist’ for ‘manipulating’ you into ignoring that initial gut feeling and your brilliant inner knowing is completely absurd.
Own your choice to ignore yourself to gain something else from them.
This isn’t ‘victim-blaming’.
It’s adult responsibility-taking.

Exhaustion comes from self-abandonment
(a lack of integrity)
while dealing with other people;
not from dealing with other people.

Having a traumatic childhood doesn’t absolve you from taking full responsibility for yourself and your life as an adult.
Many of us grew up in hellish environments and circumstances.
And?
So?
How long are you going to use that as an excuse for how you and things are?

The fire you actually crave
comes from never leaving home.
From working on THIS; not that.
Because THIS is all there is
and that will adjust accordingly.

You starve it by not feeding it.
Inwardly, that’s what you do.
“The ignored guest quickly leaves.”
So give it no reason to stay.
You can entertain the chaos.
The insanity.
The mind.
Go into the depths of hell.
Then post about your dark night.
Tell others about that ‘necessary’ initiation.
The ‘generational trauma’ that ‘lives in your bones’.
Be commended on your strength for ‘facing the beast’.
(aka enduring yourself at the hands of yourself and calling it by another name)
Sure, you can do that.
But you could also not.
You feed the pain because you get off on it.
When you’re done getting off,
it’s gone.

when you perpetually self-abandon
the denser it gets
and when you do this over an extended period of time
that density
that was once only energetic
becomes matter
becomes ‘illness’ (both mental and physical)
because your system was not designed for such a deviation
it was designed to let you know all you need to know
to remain clean and intact
forevermore
so when you choose to ignore that knowing
over and over and over again
your brilliant system will turn up the volume until it just can’t be ignored
until you have no choice but to honour what you know and have always known
so even your ‘sickness’ (both mental and physical)
is still your system being brilliant as fuck
it never fails you
even when you ‘fail’ (deny) yourself
it speaks to you
for as long as it takes
until you finally listen
and choose to obey
and once you do
the ‘sickness’ dissolves
because it only arose
to point the way home

Most would rather have another cater / adapt to their dysfunction(s) / delusion(s) than to do the work necessary to correct it themselves.
And most would rather do that for another,
to avoid their own discomfort
of having to take that same level of responsibility
for their own deficiencies.

She has the time.
Just not for you.
She’s in the mood.
Just not for you.
She’d do it all.
Just not for you.
Because your game is weak.

One must abandon themselves in the attempt to ‘fill’ through external means what can only be satisfied internally through learning how to not self-abandon in the first place.

Or if they will ever be.
If they can’t walk through that door with you,
