My dear friends,

Personally I benefited a lot from about two decades of spiritual practice, investigating what’s true, contacting our galactic family, et cetera. And I’m continuing to do so.

However, I’m also noticing that for me at least, right now I’m getting the most spiritual growth from returning to the world and interacting with people in conventional ways, and just trying to slightly improve things around me and help people.

People are different and on different paths, but I’m writing this to remind people that there is a tremendous amount of spiritual growth you can get from simply being in the world, interacting with people, and just trying to make things slightly better and help people slightly in conventional ways.

While not letting people abuse you, and while guarding your own boundaries. It’s completely fine to just not interact with people who refuse to honor your boundaries.

I get that this isn’t everyone’s path, but just being in the world and participating is an incredibly challenging task to take on, and it’s one that can give people a whole lot of soul growth. Frankly right now I think I’m growing more from just trying to make things slightly better at my workplace than if I went on a spiritual retreat.

Of course some of you are way ahead of me, having already realized this and are already doing this. Still, I think there’s value in me writing this because I think some spiritual people are in resistance to just being in the world, interacting with normal people, trying to make things better in conventional ways, et cetera. There are things you can learn that way that you don’t learn on a yoga mat.

With all my love,
A.S.
