I mean as in Spy x Family. Everyone has a secret they hide from everyone else, even their closest people.

Do you think real life is like that?

    I didn’t say it’s impossible. I didn’t say you can’t be honest with yourself. I said if you think you don’t lie to yourself you need more introspection.

    You can disagree with me as much as you like, that doesn’t mean I need to be silent on your arguments.

    If I say you’ll never ride a dragon I don’t feel that’s me being negative. If you say you’ll ride dragons all the times I want some information from you…. That’s not an easily attainable thing that people just stumble apon. I have questions lol.

    You’re talking about reaching a state of pure inner peace… please elaborate how you attained such knowledge?

      I thought about things a lot and accepted my faults and bad habits without excuses.

      I know exactly who I am and am at peace with being less than perfect, but aware of what I need to do to be better. Knowing doesn’t guarantee success though, sometimes it requires constant work.

      I have no idea what the fuck you are talking about with the dragons. If you mean Komodo dragons, I sure wouldn’t ride those as they are fucking dangerous.

        You are playing fast and lose in this game. It’s a philosophical exercise. I didn’t say people can’t accept themselves for who they are.

        Let’s bring back the dragons. You mentioned “do you mean Komodo?” No I mean fire breathing dragons. Possibly ice dragons.

        I was referring to being totally honest with yourself in a way monks have trouble achieving, not trying out a risky hat.

        That’s why I was so confused . You and another guy are like “yeah I got that”… wait what? You have elitenment? You ride an ice dragon? Tell me more immediately.

        It sounds like you’re doing good. I personally and having some set backs in my path to enlightenment (obviously) but it sounds like we’re both working on it. We just had a misunderstanding.

        I was being more literal than you or something. If it makes you feel better I was never mad just confused “you attained enlightenment?!… can you show me?… no? That’s sucks”

        Final edit: read my words agin but instead of thinking I. A troll remember I’m just a dude drinking and posting during breaks from family. I’ve been told I sound aggressive in texts but I’m just talking. Not starting world war 3. And I’m pretty sure you aren’t a monk. Almost positive.

        If you’re a monk you are required by law to tell me… in Jesus name. Amen…

        (Stares accusingly)

          No I mean fire breathing dragons. Possibly ice dragons.

          Being honest with myself: They don’t exist so you really can’t decide how you would interact with them.

          Yes, I am enlightened.

            At want point do individual grains of rice become a pile?

            What did nothing sound like?

            If I see a yellow flower am seeing yellow rejected?

            If I’m not what came before me and not what comes after what’s the meaning of choice?

            A couple simple questions for the enlightened.
