What "Enlightened Folks" Know, But Don't Really Talk About

Enlightenment is a really big word, one I usually try to avoid. But what is it really, what does enlightenment mean and who is an enlightened person? Likely there are many definitions, but here is one of mine - if you think peace is only possible when this comes for you, you are putting off a peace that is available right now. We are all one, we are all free. We suffer because we need healing, not because we need to be enlightened.
