"Part
of our spiritual skill set is having the intuitive dexterity to read people. We
must be aware of how people shield their true selves to harm us in order to
elevate themselves and how they project distorted impressions of us.
When we know our true purpose, we work alongside God. We can't be afraid of
what others think of us; it's not about us. It's about mediating the conflict
that arises when we feel that our purpose is compromised. God can't be forced
down the throat, godliness has to live in the heart. We are all searching for
personal truth that may not be found in tradition or religion, but the stark
nakedness of knowingness.
You have to belong to yourself, no matter what you do? If you don't have a
sense of belonging; a sense of being in the right place at the right time, then
you are spinning your wheels.
Rituals are hard to break especially if one is entrenched in them, but they can
certainly be a starting pistol to get you to your own finish line."
