Life isn’t always pretty or easy, but it is a gift. There are so many things that seep in that make things seem hard or uncomfortable. From my experience, this is where lessons, and wisdom come from. It’s not what you learn in a university or in a book that marks intelligence, but how you use that knowledge to grow as a person. We can easily be consumed by the things in the world that seem unjust or unfair, but it is far more unjust to not learn from your experiences, and to not use it constructively to build a better you, community, and world. We do this on small scales of kindness and compassion’s for those whose lives are distorted and confused. This lesson for me has not come easy or simple, but I truly thank God for the gift of Spirit, and principles that saved me from the ignorance of myself. There is no peace in self indulgence, it only leaves you wanting more than you need.
