“If waking up were painless, everyone would do it”

One must find the value in delving into one’s self to discover that all that one needs is already possessed. It is indeed not comfortable, to arrive at the place where it is the only reasonable option.

Ironic that I found this right after leaving a comment about a cynical ex who used to twist the old saw to say, “An unexamined mind is not worth examining.” I believe, as you seem to, that “waking up” is inevitable for most of us – and a great deal of worthwhile examining follows once we do. Gorgeous photo, btw.

    Self realization is often painful – but self-actualization requires self-examination, in my many years experience on this planet anyway.
