All of this is a big exercise in paranoia or useless musings as far
as I am concerned. These may be valid concerns for others. I figure
I do the best I can at living my life in as balanced a way as
possible and that's it. As far as any effect on spiritual growth
goes, it is not something I ever give a second thought. There is no
difference between spiritual growth and living a good life. None.
We've all got our lessons to live here and I'm sure we are learning
them as we live, and die. Its the way us meat puppets are designed.
I figure that to be unduly concerned about something is either due
to a past impression or a valid concern, and the mix is different
for each of us.
