Number five: You acquire spiritual discernment and sense the darkness in a person’s spirit even when they’re acting like a saint. This is beyond psychology; it is the deepest form of intelligence. I’m telling you, it enters the realm of the soul. Narcissists are masters of disguise. They can fool the church, the community, the judge, and the neighbors. They can act like the kindest, most charitable saints in public. But you feel the goldenness. You have developed a sense that transcends logic. You can look at someone who is saying all the right things and doing all the good deeds, and you feel a pit in your stomach. You feel repulsed—you sense the emptiness behind their eyes. This is spiritual discernment. It is the ability to see the spirit operating behind the mask. You know the difference between nice and good; you know the difference between charm and character. The narcissist tried to gaslight you into doubting your reality, but in doing so, they forced you to rely on a sense that cannot be gaslighted—your intuition. You can smell the malice on them. You can sense the predatory energy even when they are smiling. This is your superpower; it is the one thing they could not take from you. It is the light within you recognizing the absence of light in them.
Now, I want to be very clear: you paid a very high price for this intelligence. You did not go to a university; you went to a battlefield. But do not let anyone tell you that you are damaged goods. You are battle-hardened. You are observant. You are resourceful. And you possess a depth of understanding about the human condition—the human condition that most people will never grasp. The narcissist wanted to keep you small; they wanted to keep you confused. But all they did was sharpen your mind until it became a weapon of truth. Now your job is to stop using these skills to survive them and start using these skills to build a beautiful life for yourself.
