It’ll Only Hurt a Little Bit

Some spiritual books I’ve read claims that much of our unhappiness in life stems from the fact that we depend on people and material things to bring us happiness and not spiritual values. They also claim that until we completely detach ourselves from these dependencies, we will continue to be hurt by others and never be free from fears and insecurities. I agree with what they’re saying, and although I have less fears and insecurities in my life today, I admit I’m still dependent on people for at least some of my happiness. However, I have acquired enough spiritual growth over the years to not remain hurt by others. It’ll take a lot more spiritual growth before I’m completely free of my dependency on people, especially the ones I love, but at least I know any pain I feel as a result of that dependency will only hurt a little bit.

Darryl,
My spiritual growth happened in 1998.
When I let go of things, happens when your divorced, but it was for the best.
The next biggest growth happened in the next several years when I worked on
myself. Its still and will be a work in progress. I find GODS beauty in just the smallest thing
and driving helps me keep in touch to see his wonders and angels. And there are many out there.

Hey Larry. Sorry for the delay in replying. There’s been a few things in my life recently that has slowed my blogging down, but I’m getting back on track. Thanks for your comment. I believe when we choose to grow both spiritually and as a person we begin to find greater happiness in life. We will also find that this happiness continues to grow as we do. Thanks again for your comment and I hope to hear more from you in my other posts.
