she feels, much like the last person to grasp the punchline, utterly foolish and endlessly gullible.
she wonders how long she saw what wasn't really there, and didn't see what was.

  5. Enlightenment is a smidge like pregnancy ... you either is or you aint ... and it is a tortuous landscape to traverse ... requiring both sight and vision ...
