This article seemed like it was talking in circles and I have a really hard time understanding wtf this guy was talking about. Then I saw the header that this was in part taken from conversations with AI and now I just think it’s AI slop. I’m kind of annoyed I read the whole thing.

It was a difficult follow with a lot of concepts that repeated sometimes with the added "spirituality" parts that vacillated between secular, agnostic and metaphysical. The whole thing could entirely remove the words around "spirituality" and would still simply be about our attachment style with lived reality. I am guessing because they are religious and things heard after catholic mass sparked some thoughts, they have not reached the secure attachment part of their reality to voice these thoughts without adding in something outside of themselves that is needed for wholeness. It's a thinly veiled healing and love are there for us if we openly and securely attach to *cough metaphysical cough* reality.
It's the hyphens that always give it away, hyphen or hyphen family. Just as an experiment, I ctrl'f'ed "-" on this article, 28, then I went to "best medium articles of 2012 2013 2014, average is 6/7 of them with high being ~ > 13

Never the less, the article mostly made sense to me, although it was a bit circular, I still found it tolerable as far as LLM assisted work goes, def didn't feel "written by AI".
