The personal risk of a spiritual journey

Like water running down a hill, finding its own path through the way, we are using each and every experience of life to grow in our awareness of life's journey. When the water takes a particular turn around an obstacle it travels on its own way. When there are no obstacles in its way, it rushes on in its own path.

Our spirituality travels down the route of lessons. Each and every experiences teaches us about ourselves. We can handle these challenges in love or in anger. It is a personal choice of how we handle our own responsibilities.

When the experiences we have concern other people, we have to consider how they feel in the circumstance without getting caught up in their spiritual journey. Each of us has a personal responsibility to each and every experience of our lives.

Sometimes we feel we can direct others on their journey. But that is a lesson in confusion for all, when it is actually someone else's responsibility.

The risk in the spiritual journey is that we will be seen to be cold and uncaring when we leave others to face their own responsibilities. We often lose those thought to be friends when we allow them their consequences of their own actions.

After all, we create our own reality and those in our environment become a part of our dramas and traumas through the interactive conditions of each and every experience. In the law of cause and effect, we set up the causes and must be responsible in the end for the effects that are consequential.
