      I have gained a deeper understanding of how I often, seemingly, chose the path of suffering in my life, even though I, intellectually, knew “better” — and how the consequences — the suffering taught me to make better choices because I distanced, in my perception, myself from the Creator, but also the experience gave me an enlightened perspective. I have understood this in a preliminary way, and I have always believed that the Creator’s character is love and bestowal. Humans bring suffering and God leads us through suffering.

      I did not choose my birth family — which brought me both love and suffering; but, Adonai led me and taught me through that experience as well. I do not hear, in Kabbalah, that the fallen angelic beings are forces at work in this world. If, indeed, our corporate egoism, alone, is the only force to be overcome — this is new. It seems closer to the Yetzer Hara vs the Yetzer Ha Tov. I will be looking for “the devil and Satan, that old serpent– the dragon– who roams the earth like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour” — and whether he exists in the W. of K.

      The more I start understanding my life, the greater my boundaries between life and death.

      Contemplation of these studies and asking questions that are addressing a new outlook.

      Help reflect on ego and events of life that it has affected which are all.

      There is no substitute for knowing yourself. And he who can go deeper into himself will understand them
