One of the reasons we may feel that insight is elusive is that we often expect it to be something dramatic or transformative — a sudden, overwhelming revelation that changes everything. But true insight is often more subtle than that.

Yessss....
I experienced this Thursday. It was so subtle that had I not been truly open and 'listening', I would have missed it. And the insight was *chef's kiss* ☺️
I really think this may often be an obstacle; the insight, the new perspective, a glimpse of understanding may be right there, but we fail to see it because it's not as "dramatic" as we expected, it is just simple and plain, almost obvious, and this is why we don't see it.
This, I think very much describes where I’m at a lot of the time.
Insight almost feels like a clinging desire at times, which is not the way to view it or seek it.
