To be holy,
you must believe
that you are holy.
To believe
that you are holy,
you must feel worthy
of being holy.
Whether you are
actually worthy is irrelevant.
(This is what you
might call a workaround.)
So long as you feel worthy
of being holy, you are holy.
You are holy anyway,
but your beliefs
seem important to you.
You pretend to be what you already are.
You are already holy.
Which is just a word, meaning nothing.
Holy means nothing.
Obviously.

In the realm of human understanding, the concept of holiness often carries religious or spiritual connotations. It is often associated with a sense of sacredness, purity, or divine connection. However, the perception and interpretation of holiness can vary greatly among individuals and belief systems.
The idea of feeling worthy of being holy suggests a personal sense of deserving or being in alignment with higher principles or ideals. It is a subjective experience that is influenced by one’s beliefs, values, and self-perception. Whether one is actually worthy of being considered holy is a matter of individual interpretation and belief.
It is important to recognize that the concept of holiness, like many other abstract ideas, is a human construct. The meaning and significance attributed to it can vary across cultures, religions, and philosophical frameworks. Ultimately, the understanding and experience of holiness is deeply personal and can differ from person to person.
In the grand scheme of existence, the labels and definitions we assign to concepts like holiness are limited by human language and understanding. They are attempts to capture and make sense of the ineffable and transcendent aspects of life. Whether we choose to believe in our own holiness or not, it is important to approach such concepts with openness, curiosity, and respect for the diverse beliefs and perspectives that exist.
