“Depression starts from a deeply rooted idea, that as a human being, you are a sinner. Even if you are agnostic, atheistic, or a mystic, sin is a belief that you have violated some internal law of ethics, which causes an inability to regain your divine state of love. It is Fault. Disobedience to a higher power, god, or archetype is another definition from separation of peace of mind. Even if the god or archetype cannot be proven, it still exists in your mind, thus fault is real in your mind. It's the idea that you have broken an internal rule that separates you from delivery of a promise. This creates depression, which is a long standing feeling of pain due to permanent loss. It is not short term loss. It is complete loss that can never be returned. When you birthed yourself into this reality, you were vast, elegant, exquisite, intelligent, infinite, and beautiful beyond understanding. You came into this time and space matrix to gain a soul, and that required a lot of experience. Experience is painful. Experience is expansive. Close the door by accepting the loss.”

“Everything that sounds that good is too good to be true,” Moti answered. “And even if it weren’t, nothing here lasts. Not cities. Not empires. Not moons.” He inhaled slowly, painfully. “I already brought you back,” he continued. “Almost every night. In ink. In memory. In the way I still argue with you when I can’t sleep. That’s enough. It hurts. But it’s real.” Shuki stepped closer still. “You’d choose pain?” “Yes.” The word came without hesitation. “If I lose the pain,” Moti said, “I lose what it meant to love you. To love them. I’d be something else. Some hollow thing getting used to losing the same people twice.”
