Can I know whether someone is failing me or helping me?
I can see now that the ways people in my life have “failed” me helped me to remove illusions about myself and the world that I’m glad to be rid of. They helped me to clear away things that stood between me and the Truth of how the world works. They have given me the pushes I’ve needed to move into a deeper understanding of how kind and benevolent the truth really is.
When I understand this, I understand that no one has ever failed me
…and I’m grateful for all the help.
