INNER CONTENTMENT
When it comes to spiritual pursuits and their focus on growth and personal betterment, it's easy to become transfixed on the things that need changing. When I do this, I can easily become overwhelmed by everything I am not. In all this, it's vital I take time to remember the things I can do and all the things I am. I cannot overstate the importance of balance, especially in matters of the Spirit. As the soul tears back the layers of delusion that shroud the true nature of its frailty and shortcomings, the gravity of the truth can be suffocating. It is imperative to frequently reflect upon the good that's already present. It is vital to take time to behold the spiritual landscape from distance. The heart must take time to smile.
