D,
Everyone will struggle. We hide behind our struggles not being the same in texture or form. In substance, we all struggle with being human. We are not immune from that particular disease. We will fall under its weight and, finally, being human will kill us.
I am not trying to be dark. This ‘death’, in our sense, is a good thing. We are becoming much more than present life, exiting a limited space for a limitless reality, and becoming more aware as we confront the pretend end of our human existence. The struggles are just a chapter in a life truly without end. They are companions, friends, listeners, and humblers of the boundless heart we truly live in. It will become clear as you proceed. Do not push them off as fast as you want to. The discipline is to become nearer and nearer to the character your own heart tells you is possible.
