I carry it in my bones, it’s a heavy part of my history, and it’s strange and wonderful to have escaped, to be outside in a world that lets me have a wide variety of expression. My past feels like some dark, hidden dream that those around me have never dreamed themselves. 8/

One question: what are some objective measures of well-being by which we can weigh the pros and cons of various approaches (rather than appealing to subjective experiences)? (To be clear, not debating your points here)

This trad past life you experienced is why I've always related to you on some level. I grew up in a similar sheltered environment, as I'm sure many of your followers here have.

This is a phenomenally balanced and wise approach on a subject that I never hear anyone take a balanced approach, or at least not to this extent. Color me impressed. (Side note: it's so heartbreaking to hear about what you went through growing up. No one should go through that)
