'I don't know' is my favorite position.
Sometimes the concept you're questioning makes more sense to ask just the second one and not the first one.
Who cares if you're enlightened forever? Can you just get it in this moment, now?
You can never make yourself believe that you're loveable, however hard you try, because when the chips are down what you really believe rises to the surface of the mind to replace what you want to believe.
Thinking that people are supposed to do or be anything other than what they are is like saying that the tree over there should be the sky. I investigated that and found freedom.
