We only live once... ? [Spirituality & Religion]

The ones whose masks fall off while they are in the dark will be able to say that a life once lived is only by a fool who is blinded by his / her own delusional realm of illusions.

But a life that exists and is able to live in his existence would be able to tell you that a second once in a life time was when his mask fell off while fighting his demons in the pits of hell and awoke with scars to see the life that is worth living

@Trainedheart: pretty profound words, I think I can definately relate to having my mask fall off in the dark and fighting my demons. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for not ridiculing :)
And I wouldn't post such nonsense if I myself didn't understand the wording :) xx

Lol I don't know would I ridicule, but anyway np :) is there somewhere you got that from or did you come up with it

Some people are very pessimistic when it comes to a topic such as this one.
No. I actually came up with that as I was typing, I was going to write something else lol. But due to life experiences, I know what it means to be ... as you call yourself via your username in the "dark"
I have a blog that expresses my perceptions of good and evil of light and dark of heaven and hell and learning to balance the shades.

That or I just have too much time to think hehe

@Trainedheart: Hi, i'm impressed how you came up with it spontaneously. I'm guessing what I said somehow hit a cord in your emotions and when this happens we can become very creative. When we are in tune with our emotions it can become more easy to express ourselves and thus be spontaneous/creative, in my opinion.

Also, balance I think is definitely a key way to live a more happy and prosperous life. I think it can be healthy to think deep/reflect and even more so when we do it with another person. It can be a very strong way to connect with others and our human experience. Any if you have read this entire comment, thanks lol 🙏

Of course I read the entire comment! Ahhh, emotions :)
See, rage is our powerful emotion... guilt is the cure - yet it is also the challenge. Some people forget that in their rage, it is the emotion that controls them. We are not our emotions.
Except, your right, I write a lot of dark poetry. Yet I also write about hope and faith.
But to write about the darkness.. I have to be in that place, that's where I bleed my heart into my writing

@Trainedheart: I see, but so can strong passion, empathy, respect and concern (love) be as powerful. It can also blind us as well in some form or another.

Yep :) and I learnt that the hard way. Because my heart turned to ice.
But under all the icicles- hate, rage, lies, dishonesty... are just my insecurities.

Love ... it really does conquer all. We just have to see through the dark first
