Ego – The Delusional Thinker
Do you know that we live in a world of delusions? It is because we live in a world of words. However, there is a world without words that exists right before us in the present, what we call reality, which is eternal and timeless. The only thing that separates us from it is our perception. When we meditate, what is our purpose? Are we trying to understand how we relate to this timeless dimension and be free of the time dimension we know? Or are we trying to escape from it? It is not meditation if you are trying to escape but just another way of using self-hypnosis.

Empaths Standing Firm Against The Toxic Cycle
Dealing with a narcissist who has lost you can be a challenging and painful experience. Once they realize they have lost you, expect their desire factor to increase, as they only want what they cannot have. Narcissists have a gaping hole in their souls and take the forbidden fruit effect to a different level. They long for the one that got away and will use hoovering tactics to suck you back into the abusive cycle. However, be prepared in advance to save yourself from pain, drama, and trauma because there is no time limit on the narcissistic hoover. It can be even after a decade.
