Those who are last shall be first

 Spirituality is full of paradoxes and apparent inconsistencies. You may have studied the scriptures for years, attended countless seminars, and the carefree friend is so much closer to That than you ever got, even though she never studied or practiced anything.

 

Is there a spiritual discipline that can help? Well, yes. First, it is the honesty to accept the story of the prodigal daughter even though someone cries murder inside of you. Second, it is realizing that the one who minds this apparent unfairness is exactly the one standing in-between you and That!
