Anne Lamott...It really IS easier to experience spiritual connection when your life is in the process of coming apart.
About This Quote
Here is what I think. The fact that our lives are in the process of coming apart means that we are about to experience an intense spiritual experience. We are about to experience the highest levels of transcendence. We are about to become psychically connected with God, with angels and with other spiritual beings.
This is why spiritual connection is not just something that happens when everything is going well in our lives. Spiritual connection happens when things get difficult too. There is no escape from this experience.
There is no one who can get us out of it. It's happening right now whether we like it or not!
