Dear Rawn, Thanks for reminding me that the work of self-transformation is a lifetime process. It helps to see this essential Step I exercise from a different perspective. I imagine that not only does this lifetome process includes adding new items to our Sole Mirrors, but also finding out new ways of dealing with our shortcomings as we learn to see more clearly what the underlying causes to these shortcomings are. Having this ability is IMO one of the signs of true spiritual maturity. I understand that the "Wealth and Spirituality" thread needs to be closed, as it strays from the main topic of this Discussion Group. Just allow me to use this stage to thank all those who wrote their opinions about the subject, as indeed they brought up some very thoughtprovoking points.
