Reflections During The Winter Solstice

It is the second night of the Winter Solstice and upon deep meditation I reflect on my recent errors. And it's odd that just as I solve some issues others arise out of my own doing giving yet another challenge to overcome. But then again if all challenges cease then what would be the point of continuing on in this present body?

The way I understand it our ultimate destiny is to become the Divine Beings that we were made to be by nature. But we start off as human beings subjected to the earthly passions, sensualities, and materialistic pursuits;ie, the "dirt" otherwise known as "HUMUS" that covers our true selves.

Now you see where we get the term "HU-MAN" from.
