A friend complained she had been “trying to discover who she was” but kept getting knocked off her spiritual path by well meaning family and friends who won’t leave her alone.  “How can I discover who I am when they keep bothering me?” I had to smile because that’s HOW we discover who we are, by how we interact with those closest to us.  Especially those who rub us the wrong way. That IS our spiritual path.
