Each one of us has a spark of the Creator within. Each one of us has the ability to say, “That person is just so annoying, and I cannot stand being around him. But you know what? He has the Light of the Creator within, and if I can, I must help him become what he needs to be.”
By saying this, we are learning to be ever conscious that there is always a greater reason than we first think for every interaction we find ourselves part of.
This is what is asked of us on the spiritual path.
