It may be an illusion, and unfortunately it is one I've grown rather attached to. Coming to terms with this fact is notoriously difficult, and one that many people devote their entire lives to. I assume that you are stating the idea as a rationally held belief rather than as something that you both fully and deeply accept as an individual, but if this is not the case, then I am both envious and deeply interested in how you managed it. I've had *moments* when I've felt like I've almost grasped this truth, but could never hold onto the realisation for long.
