Like most people, you have probably wondered why you were here. After all, what is the purpose of all this? You are one of the most magnificent creations of The Universe, and it seems that you should have a greater purpose than to simply be born, work for 40 years, raise a couple of kids and then die. Doesn’t it seem that there should be more to it all?
You came here to work on an aspect of your spiritual development. But we usually try and sidestep that issue because it asks us to be more vulnerable than we feel comfortable with.
Do you know anyone who doesn’t have troubles? Think about it. Anyone? We accept problems as a part of life, but doesn’t it seem a little odd that everyone has them, that no one gets off scot-free? And when you find anything that affects everyone, you need to start looking beyond the surface for a deeper explanation.
And the one thing that stands out from all the rest is how strongly we resist making the changes that are asked of us. Most people have to get backed into a corner with no other way out, before they will make the changes that The Universe has been asking of them all along.
