The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green earth, dwelling deeply in the present moment and feeling truly alive.

I've done well in life, but at the same time I constantly wanted to end my life at every waking moment for over 20 years. It was this deeply awful feeling that I associated with dukkha (dissapointment), as I am a Buddhist, and accepted it as a natural aspect of Samsara that one should adapt to. That was a coping mechanism that kept me going into my 30's until I realized it was gender dysphoria. After three months on estrogen, Samsara is much more beautiful and cheerful than I remember it previously.

Maybe Nirvana is no longer needed, as the world isn't constant suffering for me anymore. Maybe this will make Nirvana easier. Maybe this is Nirvana. Or maybe I'm still in bardo between my male life and my female life, so it's impossible to judge. In any case, I'd best stop asking such silly questions and enjoy life. And I find that much easier now!

Cheers from a Tibetan Buddhist trans girl.

When you slouch, you are trying to hide your heart, trying to protect it by slumping over. But when you sit upright but relaxed in the posture of meditation, your heart is naked.

Kids sitcom about a group of friends where all of them are a part of secret magical or superhero based underground society that don’t know about each other and they all think that the others are ignorant normies that they have to protect from their magical shenanigans.

[what-even-is-thiss]

The witch kid, the superhero sidekick, the cryptid hunter, and the half fairy kid are all unknowingly trying to hide the same talking cat from the principal of their school and the talking cat doesn’t tell any of them about each other because it’s currently getting many extra helpings of treats in exchange for its silence.

[what-even-is-thiss]

During the episode where they all find out about each other’s secret lives there’s obviously a slow look over to the cat who’s like “well you never asked. Anyways, completely unrelated but I’ve gotta go.”

[sistersorrow]

As more seasons pass, it's eventually revealed the rich kid who bullies the main cast is secretly child of some dark lord all the societies fear and eventually the bully works with the main cast to defeat them in the series finale or movie
