You wrote recently about the difficulty of describing an authentic epiphany, and I think singular moments of realization depend on countless quiet moments of reflection that cumulatively change the course of one's life.

You described how: "Over the course of the last several months, the ineffable monster inside of me has begun to slowly transform into something of a manageable problem." I think that type of slow transformation is often indicative of an incipient epiphany.

Lastly, I can relate to what you wrote about feeling that it's no longer acceptable to be unhappy. In my case, I became so nauseated with the constant self-indulgence of unhappiness that I finally experienced a cognitive breakthrough from my former patterns of behavior.

I've really appreciated your writing since you joined Steemit and I look forward to your next piece!
