Subject: What do you think?


Are complications and problems in life a sign for being on the wrong path? Shall we look for other ways then, where doors open up easier?

Or is it right when people say one has to fight through something in order to succeed?

Is there a general rule, or is it one of those “depends” questions?

[> Martina, I don't believe that difficulties are something that mark a "wrong path." That would mean that whenever we come across a problem we are supposed to go in the other direction, or retreat. I believe that diffulties are something to learn from, and grow through. -- Ann, 21:41:54 11/07/03 Fri

[> I don't know if there is a "right" or "wrong" path. I know there are easier and harder ones to walk though. I think that, even though human nature tends to guide us to choosing the easiest path, it is not always the "right" path. Sometimes that personal growth that happens by perservering through a hard path is what was meant to be. There is an incredible sense of satisfaction in accomplishing something that was very difficult. Sometimes, just because you encounter a closed door, it just means you have to find another way in, or try a different one to get to where you want to be. -- Brenda, 14:53:05 11/09/03 Sun

[> Thanks girls. I was just thinking there are people that seem to always succeed, everything falls right into place for them, and some spiritual books say that is because they are "on their right path". Shakti Gawain´s books say that too. I am not so sure anymore. Maybe following the intuition is always best, no matter the results. -- Martina, 05:24:33 11/10/03 Mon
