NiceGuy and I seem to be entering yet another phase of our relationship, and at 132 posts on the previous thread, it seemed a good time to start a new line. This title comes from something I read a few days ago on knowledge and enlightenment.

Enlightenment is blissfulness with awareness. Knowledge is a passage; it is a journey. You have left ignorance, but you have not achieved enlightenment. You are in between. That is why knowledge is a tension. Either you fall back from knowledge or you go beyond. And falling back is not possible. You have to struggle to go beyond.

I so much want to go beyond just being able to articulate this good stuff, and make plans. I want to be able to really feel at one with these growth insights. Slowly.
