Chapter 1: The Struggle with Desire

The yearning to amass more can lead to self-destruction, plunging you into your own frustrations and setbacks.

Throughout my life, I encountered numerous instances filled with anxiety, frustration, and intense desires. I grappled with my inability to let go and detach from these feelings. A constant loathing for my past experiences fueled a fervent wish to comprehend why they occurred and how to avoid repeating them. I moved through life with a heart burdened by fear, my eyes weary and red. I longed for the innate goodness of my spirit and mind to prevail, believing it would illuminate my path to recovery. Yet, unforeseen challenges and negative influences darkened my spirit, creating a chasm between me and my inherent goodness.

As time passed, I adapted, learning to strategize and act in ways that yielded results, often mirroring those around me. Eventually, I found myself entangled in a chaotic situation with no clear way out. I recognized the missteps I had made concerning my own spirit, but I struggled to trust that the good within me could thrive and flourish. In moments of uncertainty, I found solace in attending church, where I could absorb the uplifting energies around me and witness individuals unite for a shared, noble cause.

In recent years, my singular focus has been on accumulating wealth by any means necessary. I lacked clarity in my pursuits, and while I did achieve some financial improvement, it was far from exceptional. I did not excel, and I firmly believe that my lack of a pure, collective goal hindered my progress. Like a wounded animal fixated solely on its pain and healing, I sought to mend my wounds, and I believe I took the right steps at the right time. However, the time for excuses has passed.

Now, I extend my arms toward kindness, attentiveness, and community. Today, I perceive myself as a stronger woman than ever before, braver than I have ever been. I gaze into the mirror and see a woman dedicated to following divine guidance, striving to harmonize the material and spiritual realms in the most balanced way possible.

While I once chased financial gain indiscriminately, I now understand that real success lies in defining a meaningful goal.
