Default Spritual Pearls

It is the impurity in the oyster that creates the pearl. I was recently reminded of this fact when I was musing about my spiritual development. God knows, I am hardly a saint. Still, you cannot help feeling that we live in the age of spiritual empowerment. Impurities or not, we can still strive to attain enlightenment. I would like to learn how others have overcome theirs. Marianne Williamson remarked that spirituality is the art of embracing your contradictions. Please tell me how you got your spiritual pearls.

You need rain for rainbows to show up.

There is a crack in everything, that's where the light gets in.

Everyone has their cross to bear.

Perfection is boring.

Everything beautiful is broken.

It's imperfections that are interesting.

I got my pearls from asking questions. First of my Elders, then of myself, finally of Spirit.

So far, only the last has provided any significant answers.
