Do you ever feel that you've 'gotten' something, only to either 'forget' and have to relearn, or be presented with the same lesson in a different way, only to realize that you hadn't gotten it as fully as you had thought. For example, this year has been big for me in terms of learning to surrender, just being, not needed anything else and seeing the perfection in THIS. I was able to 'be there' amongst different 'struggles,' thinking I was finally 'there' or almost there, only to be faced with a new challenge that has really been testing me in terms of allowing myself to surrender and detach while still keeping an open heart. I suppose I didn't realize I had to work on this specific aspect of surrendering, because this time it has to do with a man and I had been single for so long that I never had to deal with it before until now.
This is why humility is an important quality.
