Learning From Our Mistakes

"We grow spiritually much more by doing it wrong than doing it right." Richard Rohr

If that is true that we learn more from doing it wrong, then that is a good way to look at all the mistakes that we, as humans, make.  Abraham says that we cannot get it right, and we cannot get it done, so perhaps what we can do is learn as we go along and not make the same mistake twice.  Sometimes - in wondering what the purpose of life is - we can get absorbed in the challenges; but, perhaps, the challenges are the only way that Life can really get our attention.  And, it is in the challenges, that we learn and grow in our potential as humans.  What if the purpose of life is to continue to become more fully who each of us was meant to be?   Challenges can help us know and to develop who we are.
