No, it's good, man.

I actually had this thing with my men's group actually like two years ago.

I was in Brazil.

We were staying at this property that had this like vacant church on the land.

And it's just one of those moments where you feel like an energy kind of comes over you.

I like went in the church alone.

I took off all my clothes and I just laid on the ground.

Nice.

And there was this...

there was this like really like intimacy with God that I can't put into words.

And the more that I speak about it, the further it probably would take me away from it.

But it was like this thought that came to me was like, I'm tired of being spiritual.

And it's really being tired of the part of me that would in any way uphold the identity of being somebody who's spiritual.

Like that's exhausting.

And it has been.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So I think that was, yeah, that was one of the big first kind of cracks into that realization.

That's a beautiful one.

Of even like so many of the behaviors that others and like I have done in the past in some way that we deeply know, but wouldn't maybe admit to ourselves are really a subtle yearning for love, like asking for love in some way.
