Hey Kim

I do this all the time - see the truth and the distortions. In my perception and observation, there are distortions everywhere, in everything and absolutely everyone.
This is just how things are. Existence is build not upon the light, but the distortions of it, places where there are shadows, where it gets broken, reflected, etc. Experiences are all about that. And this is why there is no truth and no purity, just relative degree of harmony, and possible evolution of it in time.

There is no completeness in things, people, sensations, but still, one can feel complete within his incompleteness.

This is why I don't see a problem with people being distorted and being still inspired and learn from them. I see distortions in most evolved people I've met too. I also have a very high sensitivity to that, and to denial too :-) But I don't feel the need to fix all this anymore. I used to. Focus on the wrong stuff, rejecting, judging. What does that serve exactly? I just realize more and more that it doesn't. And what kind of purity can one look for in this place?

It is all a matter of perspective, I find.

I can look at Trin's comment, for example, and feel the distortions of it, or I can see the light, funny and bright side of it, or both. And add to it my own reflections of light and my distorted perceptions. Then reflections and realizations come... And it was just a small comment. In this way every little experience has the potential of this kind of unraveling.

And in all cases I will learn something about myself.

There is really no need for perfection and absolute purity in order to experience, communicate and grow. Quite on the opposite.

So all this is a gift, in whatever way we take it :-)

And just when the judgement of distortions we see goes, suddenly there is no "good and bad" anymore, just our own experience of it all.
