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?

Yeah I kinda suck at grand spiritual enlightenment. Glad you figure it out. Any tips would be appreciated.

I know that was sarcasm, but stop thinking about it in pseudoscientific religious nonsense terms like "spiritual" and "*enlightenment".

You're a human, humans can be figured out, we're not magic.

“Stop thinking about-“

No. I’ll continue thinking if it’s all the same to you. About everything all the time.

I continue working to enlightenment. Magic and all. It would be great if you could just let me know how you achieved enlightenment but if not I just keep thinking about things. Like people do. You know… like the human brain does lol

I personally am in the camp that people should think more but I don’t want to make a this political.

Let me break down that comment.

So, you want to feel better about yourself, but only through supernatural means?

And when I point out that that is getting in your way to achieving what you call "enlightenment", you not only straight il refuse, but insist that magic is definitely a potential correct path.

And you cover it all with a nice sauce of insulting my intelligence.

You have a VERY long road ahead, and you're currently walking at a right angle to it.
