We live in a time where suffering is sold to us as both inevitable and essential — as though it’s the price of admission to this earthbound life. But what if that entire premise is flawed? What if the struggle we’ve been conditioned to accept, to normalize, isn’t a requirement, but a carefully engineered trap?

For as long as humans have pondered existence, we’ve been fed conflicting answers about who we are, why we’re here, and what it all means. Religions, philosophies, and spiritual movements have twisted fundamental truths, leaving people searching for something they were never separate from in the first place. The soul, spirit, and Source have been fragmented into confusing, often contradictory ideas — but in reality, they are one seamless whole. This is not about salvation, ascension, or evolution. It’s about recognition — seeing through the illusion of separateness and remembering what has always been true.
In a world dominated by illusion and control, we find ourselves trapped in a system that distorts reality, while the true freedom of an awakened individual remains beyond our grasp. Hidden in the chaos and complexity we must navigate each day, we struggle to find meaning, peace, and a way to cope with the absurdity of it all.
30 years ago, I died. It was mid-March of 1994, as I recall. I was 18 years old, and this may or may not have been about the 5th or 6th time I had been in a situation where I could have been over and done with this life — and yet, I decided to remain, or to come back and keep on keeping on.
We don’t need to wait for life-altering moments or crises to stop seeking externally. Instead, we can embrace who we truly are in the present moment, and through that self-realization, find inner peace and meaning.
