The soul has come to the physical realm to have a direct experience of itself as an "individuation of divinity."
Neale Donald WalschA master blesses calamity, for the master knows that from the seeds of disaster (and all experience) comes the growth of self.
Neale Donald WalschWe have some role in almost everything that happens in our lives. When "bad" things happen, the mistake is not in the role, but in calling them bad. For in calling them bad, we call ourselves bad, since we had a role in their creation. We then have only two choices: blame ourselves, or disown our creative power, neither of which is congruent with our highest purpose.
