How Many Times

Is it rue, my soul, that many times Hade’s gates you have to cross, wisdom to gain?

Is it when we hit rock bottom that we gain enlightenment... that life is difficult and you need help? Or is it when you climb a mountain and reach the top do you reach enlightenment... believing that you can do all things by yourself? I think it is the former. You write ... and I ponder.

Keep pondering my dear friend, Timothy! The answer only you can find for each person is approached in a unique way by the divine! We only must have faith and follow the way He has traced! Thank you!
