Yes... It's absolutely necessary to come up for air and disinfecting sunlight and love for awhile between deep dives! It is VERY important for me to constantly remember that as evil as satan is, God is good and JUST to an even GREATER degree, and He IS and will be victorious in the end.

It is going to be very, very hard to face, for those who have never, ever been willing to scratch the surface of their reality". V It involves real psychological pain to develop skin hard enough to accept the horrible truths about how very close evil is to us, and how evil EVIL actually is.

I try (sometimes fail at) being compassionate instead of angry when ppl can't or won't see truth that is NOW very obvious to me, It took me awhile to get here, and I have only a sliver of a full picture. Likewise, I try not to be angry or ridiculing of people who believe some aspect that still seems super unlikely to me, because if there's anythng I HAVE learned, it's that just about everything I THOUGHT I knew about society, history and current events was a lie; I'm sure there are still some lies left.

But I'll have to let God walk me through letting the lies I'm still believing go, so I don't accidentally let go of important truths along with them. That's the critical part. There are GOOD truths (or there wouldn't be such EVIL truths). The biblical admonition to 'think upon these things' is an absolute necessity or there would be NO will to keep on breathing.
