surrender is good. that is how I grow. if you read any of my other posts you
will know that it took me many years to realize that all I have to do is
surrender, to let go.

No judging, just questioning. I question myself every minute of every day.
Didn't think my questions would be taken as judgements or attacks by anyone
here.

I seriously don't think I repressed anything. I feel I reached a point where I
felt an equality with All (whatever that means to anyone) and I felt it
distasteful to play as if I was superior.

Regardless of how wise or advanced or any state we may write about here, we can
always learn. Kahlil (see what you did!) aptly says:
"During the ebb, I wrote a line upon the sand,
Committing to it all that is in my soul and mind;
I returned at the tide to read it and to ponder upon it,
I found naught upon the seashore but my ignorance."
That is why I question...
