Hi !

Hi steppingfeet, thank you for reading and taking the time to engage!

Moving from one paradigm - really, everything you knew and thought the world consisted of - to another in the span of one book. This was the one that opened your eyes for you. No Morpheus needed. That you "immediately sought more spiritual perspective" speaks strongly toexactly what you said in your first paragraph: the commencement of your spiritual path, which is another way to say, the birth of the spiritual seeker. It was the same with me after the book that rewrote my reality and the subsequent need to search.

I'm curious as to what book did it for you?

What, precisely, is the trouble? Is it an inner narrative about your worth, your likability, your relability, your "fit" with a given social group? Is it a dislike of or distrust of others? Or an inability to understand them? Is your sense of your communication skills? What does the connection you seek look like? What does the "trouble connecting with most people" look like? How much energy and intention do you invest in making connection?

Thank you for these questions, they have given me some things to consider. I find myself unsure, uncomfortable, and drained by engaging with people that I do not know. social anxiety, sensitivity to negativity, etc. If i get a bad vibe i find it hard to recover.

Love
