What if, from another point of view, your darkest moment was actually your greatest gift?
When we talk about SPIRITUAL growth, we are dwelling within a realm that does not sync up with human reason. Human reason and intelligence have been evolving over the ages, but they are still not developed enough to properly decode and decipher the true nature of reality.
We tend to think logically, in mostly "if, then" statements.
If I'm a good person, then good things will happen to me. If I follow all the rules, then I will be rewarded. If something bad happened to me, then there must be something wrong with me. If I experience pain, then what's happening is bad. If I experience pleasure, then what's happening is good.
But the problem is: human logic, understanding and our point of view are extremely limited. If we truly understood this, we wouldn't be so quick to apply meaning to the events of our lives. Just because we feel good or bad in the moment doesn't mean what's happening is good or bad.
When I was doing drugs and drinking alcohol, in the moment I felt good, unaware of the long-term effects of my actions.
