About This Quote

The more learning occurs when there are many obstacles then when thear are few or none. A life with difficult relationships, filled with obstacles and losses, presents the most opportunity for the soul's growth. You may have chosen the more difficult life so that you could accelerate your physical progress. This phrase is especially true when we look at our lives from a spiritual perspective, as opposed to a physical perspective.

Physical laws that help us in our physical growth do not apply to the spiritual growth that we seek in our lives. It is harder to grow spiritually than it is to grow physically. We all need to find ways to become stronger and wiser in our souls, and we can do so by working through real obstacles in our lives.
