“Spiritual growth involves developing the ability to understand yourself and to act in higher and higher ways. Everything in your life is teaching you about yourself. Do not make yourself wrong if you have a lot of turbulence in your life; see it as an opportunity to grow and to know more about yourself.
Notice that you have already gained a level of mastery over your emotions, for there are certain situations that might have greatly upset you years ago that you now let pass quickly. Perhaps when someone slighted you in the past you felt bad about it for days. Now you simply shrug and decide it’s their problem, not yours. You will get to a point, if you aren’t there already, at which you can say, “People are the way they are, and I will not take their actions personally.”
Sanaya Roman, in “Spiritual Growth”
