The reason we resist virtually all endings in our life--wherein we feel as though something has been wrongfully taken away from us--is because these same unwanted moments leave us feeling terribly empty inside ourselves. In truth, it is this overwhelming sense of emptiness that we detest, and not the changing condition itself that we so habitually protest. So when things..."
When faced with the prospect of living with an emptiness that seems capable of swallowing us whole, most of us elect to do the only thing we believe is possible under such dire circumstances. We start right away working out fresh ways to fill ourselves once more. The drill is familiar: find someone or something new with which to make another beginning.

The real adversary in our lives, that proverbial thorn in our side that leaves us aching and angry, and then sends us looking for someone to blame, is not what we have always believed. It is not something "out there." It's something "in here": an intimate enemy.
We can and must begin to understand the spiritual life before we can live it. But we can't begin to understand something that is above us until we begin to see it.
How do I learn to go through the resistance I feel when I am asked to do something I don't want to do but know that I should do? Can you elaborate a bit on Christ's teaching of "Resist not evil" and how this applies to the movies playing in my head? Sometimes I feel like I'm looking at millions of them all at once.
