I am a spiritual over achiever. The first decade after my spiritual awakening was filled with equal amounts of joy and pain. My belief is that the muck needs to be cleared away in order to become the radiant vessels we were intended to be.
I know a few other spiritual over achievers and I would like to offer a bit of encouragement. Two things come to mind. The first is that you are moving. It may feel like you are coming up against the same issue over and over, but I promise that they are getting smaller each time. The second is that it is so worth it.
Living a life of inner freedom is amazing. Keep walking. Keep weeping. Keep loving – especially yourself.
