When I hear enlightened I think about being aware of a situation. Being enlightened with politics allows you to see what is going on nationally. Another way is keeping up socially and being apart of groups that bring awareness to different ideas.

When I hear the word enlightenment I think of being woke by a certain subject. Being open minded and willing to explore certain things in your life that you didn’t before. Becoming enlightened makes me more aware of things in the world.

Being made aware of or learning something new. Sometimes it yields new insights into subjects, like how the manual transmission works giving a little bit of help in actually working said transmission efficiently.

When I hear enlightenment I think of someone telling me tea or something I wanna know. Enlightenment might make you look at someone or something differently. You could be more knowledgeable about a something differently.

When I think of enlightenment I think of happiness and courage. An area I have seen enlightenment is in the world we live in and to enlightened by a new era or a different state of mind.

When I hear the word enlightened I think of it meaning informed. This allows me to look at it in a way of seeing how it actually is or how it actually works. I continue to be enlightened all the time continuing with learning.

When I think of enlightenment I think of finding your purpose and becoming at peace with the universe, life, death, yourself, etc. The dictionary definition I imagine would be closer to learning something or learning more about something. And throughout the course of life we all go through some sort of enlightenment and grow as a person and for me I grew a lot through learning what life really is and looking at the world in a more beautiful light, studying philosophy and generally thinking deeper about existence

To be in enlightened means to receive knowledge and understanding. I am in enlightened every day when I learn something new. As you become enlightened you move up in society.

When I hear the word enlightenment I typically think of a happier or more at peace state of mind. I imagine a type of temporary euphoria. That or someone feels as though they are better than others or something along those lines.

When I hear enlightenment I think of understanding and progression. I have been enlightened to how many people's home lives are not that great from reading the lost boy. Through this enlightenment I now see the world as a difficult place and I can emphasize with people better

When I think of enlightenment I think of gaining knowledge from a source. The source may be form someone else or what you read on your phone. Gaining knowledge can change how you look at something or change an opinion you once had on something.

When I hear the word enlightenment I think of something new happening. The word makes me think of learning new knowledge. Being enlightened allows us to be more like observant of the future if we allow ourselves to learn new things.

Being enlightened means being aware or learning about something new or having knowledge bestowed upon you that you didn't know before. Being enlightened makes me appreciate all of the ridiculous knowledge in the world and how much there is to learn.

When hearing enlightenment I think of an idea or thought being brought to light or acknowledged. It can change how you look at people or challenges, for example many religions teach how challenges are like a “test” and you will gain more from the challenge to where others that don’t believe that way think like “why me”. It’s all about the way you look at the world it determines the way you live.

When I think of the enlightenment it remind me of the renaissance. It is a time in history when the society and economy starts to grow and increase rapidly.
