That's a whole new thought to ponder. If true, it would confirm the personal need for a benevolent power greater than ourselves to rely on...to trust...to believe in. And that does not come without repeated trial and error.
It occurs to me that repeated trial and error may be It. Wouldn't it be wonderful if that were the right, fit and wholly proper way to go about getting over our own self? Through trial and error bringing us ever closer to surrender. All the while we're up in our reasoning mind just beating the bejesus out of ourselves for those very errors.
Whether or not every wrong step we take is the necessary road to enlightenment, it is my proven fact that beating ourselves up for those wrong steps won't get us anything but a deeper need to get over ourselves.
In the realization of a benevolent power within, we are gifted with a new sense of Self love. This comes as a deep feeling of acceptance that self has nothing to do with. Maybe this is the Unnameable...this deeper sense of love born in the midst of remorse. There...that may well be the golden key that opens our hearts to others.
Thank you.
