Thanks for your comment Zach. You’ve just described how we climb up the ladder of self-mastery! We learn lots, struggle (there are correlations with the hero’s journey) and then experience inner understanding that makes us grow. It’s always experience found in stillness rather than outside influences that provides the answers, but the other stuff pushes us there. I don’t think anyone gets to acceptance before learning about how struggling doesn’t work. Anyway, I’m in danger of rabbiting on…
