If you step away from his influence, you start feeling lighter since you stop feeding this vacuum. Gratitude brings you back to your inner equilibrium. It connects you again with the sacred flow that the narcissist has cut himself off from.
Every ancient culture has had tales of greedy kings, cursed spirits or insatiable monsters that consumed everything yet remained hungry. These weren’t just myths, but rather metaphors of what happens when the soul of a man loses gratitude. Narcissists are the current manifestation of the old tales. No matter what they consume – love, attention, or wealth, they always remain hungry. You can read it in their eyes. There is no peace there, only restless hunger.
They hunt for emotional nutrition in others but deny everything that might actually help them. They feed on admiration, but it doesn’t fill any void. They drain others of energy, but this energy slips through the gaps of their broken spirit. Spiritually, they are like people who lost their reflection. Gratitude allows seeing oneself. It provides one with a new perspective. Without it, they can only see a distorted reflection of their ideals instead of reality.
