True spirituality calls us to face everything. Everything inside of us that needs to be faced. It calls us to face our hot, sticky, dark, embarrassing, angry, scared, shaky and sensual and fiery places. It calls us to speak up, even if we are terrified and feel like we want to vomit. It calls us to finally express what’s inside us, even if we lose all our friends.
It calls us to be deeply human as much as we are pure Awareness, deeply humble as much as we are Divine, earthy and messy and imperfect as much as we are absolute and transcendent.
We don’t get to be perfect,
but we get to be real.
And that is the greatest prize of all.
- Jeff Foster
